2980 kitchen designers compete

What if you had 2980 kitchen designers from al over the world competing? You’d get a pretty good overview of what kitchens are going to look like in the near future.

That’s what DesignBoom did and there’s a lot of really innovative kitchen design stuff to see on their site.

What really struck me, from a US perspective, is how compact the designs are compared to trend of ever larger kitchens we see here. As fuel prices rise we’re going to see a move to smaller, more efficient living spaces (the end of the dreaded ‘McMansions’?) and these designs reflect that this already taking place in global design.

Do you want to blog about your kitchen remodeling project?

We’re looking for a few intrepid homeowners who would like to share your experiences during a kitchen remodeling project- good, bad, surprising, cool, etc. Photos would be very dyson* too. We’ve been through many kitchen projects but most have been as designers rather than our own, although we’ve done that too.

If you’re interested send us a note at sammy at supernaturalagency dot com. Tell us a little bit about your project, where it stands, your design approach, budget range, etc. We’re looking forward to hearing from you!

*There’s a movement afoot to turn the word ‘dyson’ into a replacement for the word ‘cool’, as in Dyson (vacuum cleaner) sucks- opposite of which is doesn’t suck= cool. Whatever.
