The top 5 trends for a New Year kitchen project
1. NEW YORK—Are you starting the new year with a new kitchen project? Award-winning designer Toni Sabatino, of Toni Sabatino Style in New York City, offers her top five trends for 2019.
1. Hidden kitchens: As much as we
love being able to see our living rooms from our kitchens, the view from the
other side isn’t always as attractive.
2.
“The open kitchen trend
encourages lots of hidden storage and fully integrated appliances for a
streamlined look,” Sabatino says. “Tall walls of storage and appliances paired
with a large island with seating for prepping and entertaining continue to gain
popularity. Cabinet manufacturers are creating sliding and pocket door
solutions that hide cooking and sink areas as well.”
3. 2. Organic modernism:
Next-level minimal modern spaces will integrate natural elements into
simplified rooms.
4.
“Wood, stone, iron, matte black
and tiles in colours found in nature create a neutral, contemporary look,”
Sabatino says. “Accented with industrial-look kitchen furniture and open
shelving, this style is sophisticated and family-friendly, as the finishes
generally have great durability.”
5. 3. Smart(er) appliances: Smart
dishwashers and clothes dryers can already text you when they’re finished. But
2019 is the year that appliances will be even more connected and helpful.
6.
“There are now numerous
appliance manufacturers that offer connectivity through your phone or with
voice control,” Sabatino says. “This convenience helps you multi-task and save
time. New smart features also allow for download of recipes and network-enabled
diagnostics for service.”
7. 4. Wireless charging stations:
Into 2019, we’re getting our long charger cords off the counters — and away
from the splashing sink water. We can now charge wirelessly through our
countertops, which helps reduce clutter and inconvenience.
8.
“I think the convenience of
wireless, invisible charging stations in kitchen counters will become
mainstream,” Sabatino says. “We are never far from our phones, and it seems
safer and more convenient to be able to charge wirelessly in the kitchen.”
9. 5. Healthier, easier cooking:
Convection steam ovens and induction stovetops are growing in popularity as
they become more accessible and easier to integrate and use. They make fast,
healthy cooking much simpler. And in 2019, we can get closer to achieving our
resolutions with the help of better home cooking.
