Trends & INNOVATIONS Need for performance and convenience merge form and function in the kitchen & bath Today’s kitchens are trending toward smarter space plans, energy efficiency, cooking technology, durability and green solutions. We asked Peggy McGowan of Kitchen & Bath Concepts to share her expert insights about current and coming trends for kitchens. With more than 25 years of experience, this Certified Master Kitchen and Bath Designer is also a member of the American Society of Interior Designers. “Kitchens and bathrooms are getting more contemporary in styling,” says McGowan. “Traditional looks are really now more ‘transitional’ with less heavy trim and moldings on cabinetry.” There are multiple trends in play when it comes to cabinet finishes. The National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) has noted deep, dark browns, such as chocolate and espresso finishes. McGowan reports much lighter colors are gaining popularity. “We’ve seen demand for neutral, natural woods and shades of white and pale grey,” says McGowan. “Sometimes these are high gloss, and sometimes they are punctuated by sharp contrasting colors in unexpected places, to create a wow factor.” Placement of cabinetry is taking on more variety. “Cabinets are not just boxes lined up on every kitchen wall,” says McGowan. Options include open, sometimes floating, shelves at staggered heights and positions. “Having fewer cabinets requires creative thinking about storage, so functionality and convenience are key,” she says. Clever conveniences include automated door-opening mechanisms for doors and drawers, especially trash pull-out.
ABOVE & LEFT: The Seimatic BeauxArts.02 kitchen features symmetrical, sliding steel drawer fronts in the cooking area to contrast the framed lacquer cabinet doors. The hefty, 5-cm StoneDesign countertop has an elliptical edge that softens its ample volume. The backsplash is Maljat Brown limestone and the vent hood boasts a lacquered glass cover. RIGHT: This five-burner Thermador induction cooktop includes the manufacturer’s exclusive induction component technology, considered to be as responsive as gas and as convenient as electric.

RIGHT: Attractive options for long-lasting, energy efficient LED lighting for under-cabinet, in-cabinet, appliance and overhead lighting applications. Photo courtesy of Kitchen Aid.
SURFACE STRATEGIES McGowan says her clients often choose countertops that feature either very thick or very thin edge detail. She also reports that while granite and marble still are top sellers, they’re getting rather commonplace, and since natural stone usually requires more care and maintenance, more people are opting for manufactured quartz materials (such as Silestone and CeasarStone) that are beautiful and virtually carefree. “Glass is an important design element for kitchens and bathrooms, adding reflective quality, material clarity, and sometimes color or sparkle to countertops, backsplashes, cabinet doors, vent hood canopies, etc.,” says McGowan. “Sometimes the glass is actually crystal, as in cabinet handles or pulls.” FUNCTIONAL FOCUS The big news in lighting is the expanded selection and visual quality of LED lighting. Look for under-cabinet lighting, inside-cabinet lighting, ceiling fixtures and more. Energy efficient LED bulbs and fixtures are very low-heat light sources, that provide extremely long lasting illumination – averaging 9 to 14 years before bulb replacement is required. “Appliances and plumbing fixtures are smart and stylish,” says McGowan. “Faucets turn on with a touch, refrigerators read barcodes on food packaging to let you know when you need to replace something inside – and almost read your mind.” McGowan has seen increasing interest in large single-bowl kitchen sinks. “We represent The Galley, a 5 1/2-foot long stainless steel sink (also available in 4- and 7-foot sizes), with two-tiers of accessories for maximum ease and efficiency for prepping and cooking meals,” says McGowan. “Chefs love it—home cooks want it. The Galley reinvents the kitchen.” She also reports that younger consumers want it all: function and convenience, style and beauty, easy maintenance AND affordability. “Manufacturers of kitchen and bath products are racing to reach the Gen Y market to meet their demands,” says McGowan.

SMARTER APPLIANCES We’ve researched the notable innovations in features and functionality of kitchen appliances that have become available over the past year, as well as those that will be on the market in the next year. In addition to energy and water efficiency, homeowners are looking to reduce waste in the kitchen – wasted space, food that goes to waste and time wasted. The NKBA reports that French door refrigerators are now the type specified most often by kitchen designers. French door fridges more popular than the next highest-rank styles, bottom-freezer models and side-by-side models. Among smaller units, refrigerator and freezer drawers are used by a third of designers, about the same amount as under-counter wine refrigerators, which the association says are now on the decline.
French door refrigerators, such as this one from Kitchen Aid’s Architect Series II, have become the most popular style for designer kitchens.

The NKBA also finds that induction cooktops are closing the gap with gas and electric models. Gas cooktops are specified by about twothirds of kitchen designers, down from about three-quarters in 2010. Electric cooktop popularity is up slightly, being used by about 40 percent of designers. Induction cooktops, used by about a quarter of designers in 2010, were used by more than a third of designers in 2011. “A huge trend on the rise is steam cooking, as our country looks to increase its consumption of healthier foods,” says Joe Gonzales, the Central South District Sales Manager for BSH Home Appliances Corporation. “Thermador is at the forefront of this, most notably seen in our Pro Grand Steam Range, considered our most crowning achievement to date.”

Thermador’s new flagship 48-inch range is the world’s first all-in-one cooking appliance to combine a steam and convection oven with a full-size convection oven, a sixburner gas rangetop with a grill or griddle option, and a warming drawer. Thermador entered the steam arena in 2010 with the introduction of the Steam & Convection Oven, what was then the luxury-appliance industry’s first pre-programmed appliance to combine three distinct cooking options — steam, convection and a combination of the two.
With induction cooktops, such as this one from GE’s Profile series, coils do not get hot, like traditional electric cooktops. Induction cooking requires cast iron or magnetic stainless steel pans to utilize magnetic fields to produce fast heating, improved thermal efficiency and greater heat consistency with precise control. Note: People with pacemakers may be advised by their doctors to avoid proximity to induction cooktops.

“We’re also seeing induction technology gaining popularity — the draw being its ability for instantaneous and precise temperature control combined with its penchant for safer cooking,” says Gonzales. Unlike gas cooking, induction uses a magnetic field generated by an alternating electric current to efficiently produce heat directly on the cookware, rather than transferring heat from the gas flames to the cookware. “Induction cooktops are also easy on the eyes,” says Gonzales. “With a black glass surface, or a mirroredglass finish, Thermador induction cooktops feature a modern, edgy, chiseled design that fits perfectly with today’s modern kitchens. Look for Thermador to unveil a revolutionary induction item in 2012.”
