What’s popular in designing a luxury kitchen?  Design a space to conceal all of your counter top appliances, such as coffee makers, toasters, blenders, etc.  Next, consider using a mixture of counter top materials.  Also, conceal your refrigerator and dishwasher with  cabinetry panels to keep  with the visual line of the beautiful cabinetry.  Finally, using the new 2013 Pantone color of the year palette boasts a number of lovely new shades that would look great in a Fairfield County kitchen renovation or remodel.

Another popular kitchen trend is the use of sustainable materials. In January of this year we posted here on the Country Club Homes, Inc. blog, a lengthy article on ‘How to Create an Eco-Friendly Kitchen’. The article addressed a number of excellent features and products to include in an eco-friendly kitchen.

With many great suggestions for how to design a sustainable kitchen and simultaneously save energy dollars – the article advocates the use of compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs), bamboo based products, stone-chipped counter tops, top and bottom freezer and refrigerator units, and recycling stations. Please refer to the article to read more detail about these recommended features, and additional suggestions, as well.
