2. More painted kitchen cabinets and less stainless steel.
You’ll begin to see more painted cabinets in new kitchens along with white trim this year. People are also starting to move away from stainless steel appliances because they show fingerprints very easily.

3. Maintenance-free countertops.
It may be hard to believe, but granite countertops are on their way out. Although not gone completely, we will start seeing a much greater demand for high-end kitchen countertops that require little maintenance, such as soapstone, engineered stone, or zinc.

5. Adding a “keeping room” off the kitchen.
An increasing number of residents are adding “keeping rooms” to their home’s layout. A somewhat small room located near the kitchen, it’s a great place where kids can play with their toys, or the room can even be a study or media room.
