Traditional kitchen designs don\u2019t use the space above the cabinets effectively, often doubling up on cabinets no one can reach or placing a plant above to collect dust. Tile all the way up to fill that dead wall space.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Oversized fixtures<\/h2>\n<p>Bold lighting fixtures are on trend this year in residential designs. Homes will tall ceilings or large foyers will benefit from this trend, as large pendant lighting will fill the empty spaces and draw the eye upwards.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Quartz countertops<\/h2>\n<p>While natural stone such as marble, granite and soapstone are still popular, quartz is definitely catching up. Quartz counters are made of engineered stone that is 93% quartz particles. This isn\u2019t a new material by any means, having been sold for more than 30 years, but quartz is gaining popularity due to declining prices and new designs. Quartz countertops are known for their durability, natural appearance and reasonable costs.<\/p>\n<h2>7. Hi-tech hotspots<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s no surprise that kitchens this year will see an increase in designated spots for smart devices. Hidden charging stations or areas to discretely store phones and tablets will be making an appearance and hanging around for a while. Even state-of-the-art appliances such as steam ovens or wine coolers will be more prevalent.<\/p>\n<h2>8.
