While most people tend to believe that the living space is the most popular hangout in any home, facts suggest that the honor well and truly goes to the kitchen. The reasons are pretty obvious thanks to the presence of sumptuous delights tantalizing your taste buds, but this also means you need to put in far more thought into what kind of vibe your kitchen exudes.

Modern kitchens can come in a variety of colors schemes and while a total overhaul is only needed once in a decade or so, regular updating and facelifts are a must. Here are 10 stylish, chic and contemporary kitchen color schemes that not only liven up your home, but also help you stay in tune with design trends of 2013!

Elegant, rich and sophisticated, this design is ideal for those looking to strike a balance between modern minimalism and bold expressiveness and a touch of playfulness.

The smart use of glass creates a rather balanced and beautiful variance in this contemporary setting.

The gorgeous shelves, whether in violet or in white are the showstoppers here thanks to their distinctive presence, while the glittering countertop and exquisite arrangement add to their allure.

Asian kitchen designs are pretty popular thanks to their distinctive form and the soothing effect they have on the surroundings. While not completely in that mold, this kitchen merges lovely a modern design with elements of traditional Asian kitchen such as warm, earthly tones, attractive wooden surfaces and classic shelf spaces with glass doors encased in a wooden frame to offer the best of both worlds. Aesthetic and ergonomic, this kitchen scheme is highlighted by its simple and serene aura.

And now onto some of these modern kitchens from Wren Kitchens . The classic black and white color combination is something that never goes out of fashion and while its modern version might be a bit more distinguished and polished, it still has the same charm and attraction that draws you in without fail.

Red and black is another classic when it comes to kitchen design, just like the black and white combination above.
