hot kitchen trends

For the ‘Queen of the House’, here are some current news of what is “hot” in the kitchen trends:

  • Stainless Steel – Right now stainless is extremely popular. Often brushed for a more metallic texture, this grey metal matches most of the current appliances and follows a modern theme. I simply prefer shower faucets with stainless steel finishes.
  • Oil Rubbed Bronze – This is very popular as it is more rustic or old style. Sometimes brushed to show flecks of the underlying bright copper/bronze (Delta’s “Venetian Bronze”). Often covered with a baked-on patina (ie, the oil-rubbed look) – beware harsh cleaners can damage the patina (and void the warranty)!
  • Brushed Nickel – A slightly different tone from stainless, and more often seen in the bathroom than kitchen (stainless being more popular to match appliances). This grey-brushed metal can have a slightly warmer look than stainless. It has been said that it can also show fingerprints a bit more than stainless.
