Welcome back to Home Design Chat with Nancy I am your host Nancy Hugo.
One of the most popular questions I hear as a kitchen designer is “What are the trends for the new year?”
Kitchens are especially prone to new trends and homeowners typically want the latest and greatest gadgets and to increase their resale value.
We know that generally speaking the kitchen sells the home. I do want to point out that not only are homeowners interested in the resale factor but also they are interested in designing for their forever home. They want to stay in their home longer and feel safe and secure and happy.
The National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) and Kitchen & Bath Industry Show just released the 2026 Kitchen Trends Report based on a survey conducted among the NKBA community including the US and Canada. Did this survey agree with independent designers?
The topics I covered
