Kitchens are always changing, new trends pop up and some stay for a year or multiple years. Below is a list of some of the latest trends I have researched and noticed in multiple homes.
Integration
Homeowners do not want to always see their appliances, they like to integrate them into their cabinets. Below is an example of a dishwasher that has been integrated into the cabinetry.
Warming Drawers
Warming drawers are a huge convenience. You can set food aside for dinner guests that arrive late, and their food will remain warm. Also, when you are cooking a big meal, like Thanksgiving, you can cook food throughout the day and set it in the drawer so it remains warm.
Handmade Custom Ranges
Want a wow factor in your kitchen? Try the la Cornue custom ranges. These ranges are custom ordered and handmade. La Cornue ranges bring a sense of Old World Charm to the kitchen, but with a hefty price.
Built In, One Button Coffee Makers
Waking up in the morning and making a cup of coffee can sometimes be a hassle. Then you have the coffee maker sitting on your counter all day. So what about building it into the wall? That is what many people are beginning to do. Building a coffee maker into the wall incorporates the other trend of integrating the coffee maker into the cabinetry. Also, these coffee makers tend to be a “one button coffee maker.” So all you have to do, is wake up and press a button, then you have your cup of coffee. Below is a picture of a Miele coffee maker.
