The first impression rests on the final touch. Art, cuisine, fashion—whatever the canvas for expression, it is the final stroke, the last addition, that changes everything. Cooks know this intuitively; after all, the taste of a dish can be transformed with a finish of flaky salt or a spoonful of a bright emulsion. The final touch is that singular element that completes and elevates everything that came before.
Add the Final Touch to Your Kitchen
Curate Your Style
The fundamental principle of a final touch applies to kitchen design as well, where each element works in tandem with the others to tell a story. Color, cabinetry, materials and lighting layer in to create a space with a distinct atmosphere, but it’s the finishing accessories that bring it all together. What makes a kitchen unique and inviting is also what makes it personal: the flowers in the vase, the art on the walls, the cookware and baking dishes on the shelves. For example, a calm, neutral kitchen feels quite different accented with bold pops of red than it does with a soft gray-blue. The final touch matters just as much as whatever comes first. It’s the flourish on the foundation, the opportunity for real expression.

Bring Out the Best
In fashion, the final touch could be a scarf or a bag or a bold pair of earrings—a last addition that makes or breaks or even transforms a look. But in kitchen design, the ultimate accessory is Le Creuset. A culinary icon for generations, Le Creuset is the final touch that’s both functional and beautiful, essential and expressive. For years, cooks have been stocking their kitchens with our finest-quality French enameled cast iron cookware. The quality craftsmanship and superior performance have made it the easy first choice. But something interesting has been happening at the same time. Interior designers have also started pulling their Le Creuset collection out of the cabinets and showcasing it on the stove, the table and the shelves of their beautiful kitchens. For proof, just peruse the kitchens featured in design magazines: almost all of them are crowned with the finishing accent of our colorful Dutch Ovens. Why? Designers instinctively understand that the beauty of Le Creuset is just as impactful as the performance.

The Perfect Shade of Personal
Our kitchens are as personal as our wardrobes. How we design them and decorate them is an expression of who we are. But whether our style is Luxe Minimalist or Everyday Farmhouse or Curated Maximalism, or something else entirely, color plays a key role in how it takes shape. And that’s where Le Creuset’s visual impact really shines. Our vibrant spectrum of time-honored and trend-leading hues gives people endless opportunities to play with color and express their personal style in the kitchen. The colors mix and match, complement and contrast. Add a colorful Dutch Oven to a beautiful stove and suddenly the entire kitchen sings. Set a table with vibrant dinnerware and the vignette snaps to life. That’s the magic of Le Creuset as the final touch—it makes a beautiful kitchen unforgettable.
