“Kitchen design has always been driven by lifestyle. Customizing a space to a client's specifications is certainly nothing new. Where I would say we have seen dramatic changes is with the finish materials we now have available, as well as the integration of advanced technology. Our team has been designing projects featuring materials such as powder-coated finishes, hot rolled steel, reactive stains, reeded profiles, and much more. One of the most fulfilling aspects of our field is being able to create spaces for our clients that are tailored not only to their aesthetic but also meet their functional needs.” Principal, Deane, Inc., “Main Character,” page 68, deaneinc.com.

“Clients are spending more time at home and are looking for spaces that are open and connected to other living areas. In addition, remote business and schooling during the pandemic called for new living environments: workstations that can be hidden away at the end of the day, larger islands, ample and comfortable seating for work or relaxing, plus built-in USB ports and other outlets for tech devices. Homeowners are asking for unique storage solutions to reduce countertop clutter. Inventive ideas like operable backsplash panels create hidden storage space for knives, spice racks or wine bottles.” Senior Designer, Bilotta Kitchen & Home, “Main Character,” page 68, bilotta.com.

“A kitchen today is much more dynamic than it used to be. It is the living room where we entertain and gather. I approach the room with a more multifunctional mindset. The space is not only intended to be beautiful but highly functional. This requires layers in the way we approach the overall space plan, architecture and cabinetry storage functions. We are mindful that everything has its place and that you can live a more organized, efficient and ergonomic lifestyle in your kitchen.” Interior designer, Creative Director Monogram Appliances, “Main Character,” page 68, richarda2z.com. —Mary Fitzgerald
