Curious to know what kitchen design trends will dominate in 2016? Below we list some design trends you will want to incorporate into your home this year.
OPEN CONCEPT:
Kitchens that open up to living and dining spaces satisfy the needs of the modern family
RUSTIC DESIGN ELEMENTS:
Rustic elements such as stone, timber and metal are being mixed with more refined materials to create a dynamic design balance
LIVE EDGE COUNTERS:
Counters with a "live edge" have irregular, lightly finished edges that accentuate the natural appearance of the material. In this case the natural curvature of the tree is easily visible in the solid wood plank counter.
TOUCHLESS FAUCETS:
Advances in technology and a desire for sanitary food prep conditions has fueled a boom in "touchless" fixtures for the home
COMMERCIAL GRADE APPLIANCES:
Built-in fryers, double ovens, 6-8 burner gas cooktops and glass front refrigerators are just a few of the very popular commercial grade appliances being requested by food savvy homeowners
