I’ve attended this massive West Coast design conference several times, and been a panelist twice. It’s open to both consumers and the design trade. I’ll be walking the Dwell on Design exhibit hall floor with Gold Notes’ Architectural Adviser, Dean Larkin, AIA.

I’ve written before about the Urban Cultivator in my 2015 Design & Construction Week coverage. It stands 39-3/4 inches high, so that the herbs are easy to reach across your standard 36” tall counters. I say deservedly because the closer your produce is sourced to where you’re consuming it, the fresher it is likely to be.

High-performance blender: I have the Blendtec Designer 725 and love its touch-screen control panel, unique to the Blendtec Designer series. inch height means it fits easily under my cabinets which have light rail molding (special molding that conceals under-cabinet lighting) that reduces the standard 18-inch clearance by about 1.5

This week, I’m going to focus on my six favorite kitchen and bath design trends. You can see their influence in design styles – glass-front appliances, thin countertops, sleek curves and glossy neutrals. You see it in how functional space is designed so you can use, charge and store your devices in the kitchen or bath.
