The rise of wood in kitchens and bathrooms

W hen it comes to designing a brand-new kitchen or renovating a family bathroom, one of the key considerations is how that space will connect to the rest of the home. As rooms that need to withstand the demands of everyday life, kitchens and bathrooms need to be designed with practicality in mind. Fixtures, fittings and materials need to strike a careful balance between comfort and durability, delivering dream-home aesthetics while standing up to moisture, daily use and occasional spillages. The kitchen as the focal point of the home Today's kitchens are often the busiest room in the house - they are spaces for cooking, working, entertaining,

doing homework, sharing meals and planning the week ahead. Any design decision when planning a kitchen should be based around the realities of everyday life, ensuring the space is practical enough for daily use and regular cleaning without compromising on style. “Engineered wood flooring continues to rise in popularity for kitchens,” says Paul, our Global Marketing and Insight Director. “Wood flooring injects warmth, texture and natural colors into a space, so kitchens with hardwood flooring feel immediately welcoming and connected to the rest of the home. Choosing wood as the foundation creates kitchens where people want to relax and spend time while providing the durability needed for modern life.“
