In the 1970s, streamlined kitchens went the way of the dinosaur and the new design reflected more personality, particularly with colors like pink, which was popular at that time.

Wallpaper was used a lot in the 1970s as well and came in all sorts of geometric shapes, plaid, stripes and paisley prints. And the era also saw the introduction of backsplashes made with tiles of different colors and designs. All in all, the kitchens looked like a precursor to the one seen in the animated series “The Simpsons.”
