13 New Kitchen Products to Make Your Space Beautiful and More Functional

New and noteworthy kitchen products are no flash in the pan.

Thinking of updating your kitchen or building anew? Don’t be afraid to go big and inject your personality into the heart of the home, says Tucson interior designer Lori Carroll, who’s won scores of local and national awards for her kitchen designs. “First, take time to think about your cooking style, storage needs and color preferences,” she says. “Then, think about adding warm, organic textures to the kitchen. Finally, consider using bold, fun accent colors and shapes in everything from accessories to appliances.” Here are some ingredients to spice up your kitchen’s look.

Sub-Zero’s classic French door refrigerator/freezer not only has a split cooling system for freshness but also has smart features, such as Wi-Fi enabling, a touch-control panel and night mode lighting that detects ambient light, meaning you won’t get blinded when you raid the fridge at 2 a.m. 84″H by 38″W by 24″D. $13,700-$15,900 (subzero-wolf.com)

You multitask, so why wouldn’t your sink? Signature Hardware’s Workspace under-mount stainless sink has a cutting board and a colander, plus a basin grid that does double duty to protect the bottom of the sink and acts as a cooling rack for your counter. 10″H by 32″W by 19″W. $749 (build.com)

You could read “War and Peace” in the time most dishwashers go through a standard cycle. LG’s new smart top-control dishwasher gets the job done quickly with a one-hour wash and dry cycle. An LED display counts down the remaining cycle time, then disappears when not in use. 34″H by 24″W by 25″D. $999 (arizonaapplianceandhome.com)
