2017 PWP Studio

 

The Kitchen and Bath Industry Show, known as KBIS, is the most important fair for designers, architects and fans of the latest trends. It brings together the most innovative manufacturers and brands of the sector. Organized for nearly 50 years by the National Kitchen and Bathroom Association (NKBA) in the United States, KBIS is an inspiring and interactive platform that sets trends in lighting, parts, materials, use of technology, coatings, and more.

KBIS organizers made an interesting report on the most outstanding trends as far as kitchens are concerned. This report ensures that in general terms the colors to be used in these spaces have begun to change. White and gray remain firm, the use of blue and black are becoming more common. As for materials, the use of granite on countertops has given way to quartz, while materials such as steel and wood continue to coexist.

On the other hand induction cooking plates are still gaining ground, but without taking away the charm of traditional kitchens. In the oven segment, convection units dominate, but steam appliances continue climbing. The report also claims that a growing trend in kitchen design is to include wiring and ways for technological integration, as more and more devices are connected to the Internet. Based on trends in vogue, we want to share some products that were among the best at this fair.

The best of the big three. BSH appliances brands -Gaggenau, Thermador, and Bosch-, joined at KBIS 2017 to present the best of each company. Gaggenau, the German manufacturer of luxury appliances, showed off its iconic masterpiece: the EB333 oven. It combines a timeless design and unprecedented technologies. The brand also showed its versatility by presenting some of its most emblematic products ranging from its elegant coffeemakers, through the up-to-date flex cooking plates, to its sophisticated dishwashers.

Bosch, showed off its leadership in the design of appliances that simplify life in the kitchen. It left everyone in awe with the launch of a line with Wi-Fi devices that will allow you to control appliances from your smartphone: refrigerator-freezer, wall oven, dishwasher, washer, and dryer. Through a simple command you can ask your Bosch coffee machine to make an espresso or a latte, while turning off your oven.

Sinks on another level. Undoubtedly the Franke Chef Center system takes any kitchen to the next level, as if it came out of a dream. eatures two antimicrobial compartments, this system will be the cook’s best friend. It puts its spaces at the service of their needs, whether they are considering getting rid of something or preserving it for later use. In addition to the command station, it comes with a whole series of accessories – cutting board, colander, moving drying board, colander basket, and more – which makes this dismissed kitchen space into the heart of the room.
