Yesterday (July 31), I had a
wonderful time researching the newest kitchen design trends and products at
DCOTA (Design Center of the Americas) in Dania Beach, FL. Every element in
kitchen construction can be customized, so my totally enjoyable tour of
showrooms was filled with previewing an abundance of versatile options.
Cabinet doors are available in flat,
recessed or
raised paneled, textured, or smooth
finished styles in a variety of
materials. Likewise, counter top choices are available from laminates to high
quality wood or stone. Finishes can be matt, honed, or gloss.
While white is the “new neutral”,
you can have your cake and eat it too by adding unique color accents. There are
infinite choices of handle colors and styles that can be changed at whim.
Kitchens can be further customized with
open shelving in contrasting colors, and islands in any configuration. Prefer
enclosed cabinetry? Glass door fronts are available in a multitude of options
from transparent, to opaque, or patterned, allowing a subtle peek of color to
show through.
Kitchen manufacturers are providing
additional
functionality with configurations of interior
drawers that are
tailored to unique needs. Proper planning can add 30% more storage space.
In addition to elegant and highly
functional spaces, eco-friendly and sustainable materials are increasingly
being incorporated into kitchen design.
With open concept interior architecture,
the trend is to integrate the kitchen with the overall interior design scheme.
Closed kitchens can be designed to shine with their own unique character. So
what’s the major trend in kitchen design? Simply, customization!
