Let’s look at kitchen trends from Marchand Creative Kitchens for your New Orleans area kitchen (including Mandeville, Covington, Metairie, and the Northshore)

The kitchens in our homes have become a new multi-function space. In the past couple of years, we have done everything from meal prep to homework, hobbies to virtual officing in our kitchens. Once a place to cook, the kitchen is now a central hub and some new trends are developing for design, function, convenience.

Kitchen layout design now not only considers the best way to cook, clean and store, but provides gathering spaces, charging stations, and double duty counter space for work or school work. Marchand Creative Kitchens has designers available to make the most of your existing space or to help you plan for a new kitchen.

Kitchen cabinets and drawers have organizers to store items more effectively and easily. Cabinets are growing in height, to the ceiling, which allows for more storage and also creates a better visual. More color is used on kitchen cabinets with the new neutrals being dark grey, navy blue and black. There are more options for door and drawer profiles for kitchen cabinets than in the past, offering everything from minimalist to distressed. Cabinets can store many things that were once out in the open like waste cans, small appliance garages, coffee bars or chopping blocks, making more room on the countertops. Islands are getting longer to accommodate work spaces and office/homework hubs. Take a look at what lines we offer for kitchen cabinets at Marchand Creative Kitchens.

Good appliances are key for best results in cooking, refrigeration and clean up. Not only do they offer state of the art technology, higher end appliances typically last longer and are more durable. Refrigerators have so many more options such see-through doors, air purification and a multitude of custom configurations. There is a higher precision of heat control for high end ranges and cooktops; some also offer grilling or griddles. High end ovens offer more precision options for baking and roasting. Having a high performance dishwasher can help with a larger capacity, more wash cycle options and efficiency.  High end appliances offer more smart technology as well. They also offer more options for built in appearances, too, not to mention some are quieter which helps in an open plan. We are proud to offer Sub-Zero, Wolf and Cove appliances to our clients.

Grandma would not recognize our kitchens today as they have evolved through the years in design and function and have become a place we want to be. Kitchens are the heart of the home. Let Marchand Creative Kitchens help you create that special place for you and your family.
