Kitchens and bathrooms are not only the hardest-working rooms in a home, they’re also the most popular to renovate—with kitchens being No. 1, according to surveys conducted by the National Kitchen and Bath Association—and they add the most value when it comes time to sell. So it’s no wonder that manufacturers are constantly launching new and exciting products designed to not only make your rooms look better but to increase their functionality, as well.
Many of these collections debut at the annual Kitchen and Bath Industry Show. Each spring, more than 600 brands from around the globe display thousands of the hottest items that are ready to hit the market, ranging from decorative finishes to high-tech appliances, cabinets to lighting and, yes, even kitchen sinks.
