Here are some fresh kitchen trends showing up this Fall:

1. MONOCHROMATICS

White shaker style doors are still number one, often paired with monochromatic black or white countertops for a classic look. Wood floors are steering towards more grey brown tones to align with the palette.

2. IS GREY THE NEW WHITE?

Grey cabinets are a close second this Fall which can be paired with bold color accents for a fresh artsy style. Unique backsplashes can be obtained by back painting solid glass panels. Try pumpkin orange or teal blue to brighten up your daily routine.

3. MODERN TECHNOLOGY

Keep up with the new innovations for kitchen gadgets. Check out sensor activated faucets (like this one by Moen) and lights so the next time you’re hands are a mess you don’t have to worry about touching anything. There are even meat thermometers that connect to your iphone now…come on home, Turkey’s done!

4. THE COMMERCIAL LOOK

A chef’s kitchen for everyday cooks is a practical trend. Exposed pots and pans and utensils are easy to reach combined with open shelves and hanging racks for a quick pinch of this and dash of that. The shimmer of stainless appliances and polished concrete floors or countertops can be paired with natural wooden butcher’s blocks for your home restaurant.

Prior to that, he had developed a trade school program specific to cabinet installations that was recognized by the North American governing body of kitchen and bath design.
