Cookbooks To Tablets

Technology is what’s trending in today’s kitchen.

Today’s kitchen trends encompass far more than colors, countertops, flooring, and appliances.  Your grandmother’s recipe cards or cookbooks are now the latest framed Pinterest project.  Milk, bread, and flour, once staples in your grandmother’s kitchen, have now been replaced with a refrigerator that includes HD televisions and mounted kitchen tablets that are functional and fun.

Consumers have come to expect technology in all facets of their lives; the kitchen is no exception!

It is important how the kitchen fits into your lifestyle, and it is even more important how it functions.

Kitchens are now being designed as smart kitchens, with mobile devices everywhere. Smart homes feature Wi-Fi-enabled appliances – all of which must be considered in your kitchen design.  Home management is important, and you may want to have a message center, a drop zone, key racks, mail-slots, and individual storage for each family member and even for the four-legged family members.  Custom cabinet design features can help you customize your space.

Technology is being integrated into the kitchen design.  Interactive appliances with touch screens, digital devices compatible with phones and tablets, docking drawers and charging stations are increasingly popular in the latest kitchen designs.  Wireless appliances such as blenders and toasters are on the horizon.

Smart Appliances

Microwave drawers, as well as refrigerator drawers and warming drawers, are becoming more popular for their function and the safety for all generations, as we now have young and old living together in one home.

Accessibility, functionality, storage, style, and “going green” are additional design trends being integrated into today’s kitchen design. Money-saving tips include having energy-efficient appliances, low-flow faucets, task lighting, and natural light.

Color is a powerful design tool because it can control the atmosphere of the room. From soothing grays and blues to striking blacks and reds, color can make a space calm or energizing.

Kitchen style. Throughout the years, the kitchen has been the heart of the home, the place where delicious meals were cooked and served with love. It has also remained a place where memories are made, achievements are celebrated, and it invokes a warm, inviting atmosphere. One thing has changed, and that is my style.

Inset cabinets, because the doors are inside the frame, look like elegant furniture pieces, giving the space a luxurious feel. If you are looking for cabinets that will stand the test of time, inset cabinets are for you.
