MATERIAL
Wood is having a moment as the shift toward
natural/organic continues, with wood-grain cabinetry
becoming a growing kitchen and bath staple.
KITCHEN
The pandemic has forever changed how consumers
view surfaces, especially in the kitchen where
the majority of those surveyed said their clients
are looking for easy-to-clean materials. In fact,
81% of those surveyed said they are putting in
quartz for countertops.
Also gaining traction is easy-to-care-for sintered
stone, which had barely been mentioned in
previous surveys. Of course, grout is an absolute
no-go for many clients as they find it too difficult
to keep clean, hence the shift toward larger slabs
and long subway tiles for kitchen backsplashes.
Many designers are also opting for painted
wood and wood-grain cabinets as consumers
move toward a more natural look. In fact, 62%
of designers surveyed said clients are opting for
full wood-grain door facings on kitchen cabinets.
And nearly 50% of those surveyed said hardwood
or engineered wood is clients' top choice
for kitchen flooring.
Key Kitchen Material Trends
* Quartz for countertops
* Wood-grain cabinets
* Slabs/long subway tiles for
backsplashes
BATH
Like the kitchen, consumers are looking for easyto-care-for
materials in their baths as well. The
preference is for quartz and quartzite for vanity
countertops, while the base is mostly full-grain
or painted wood - in keeping with a spa-like
approach to most primary baths.
As for flooring, 71% of designers said they
are installing ceramic and porcelain tile in the
primary bath. Meanwhile, nearly 60% of those
surveyed said large-format tiles are gaining in
popularity, and 40% noted slabs are on the uptick
with consumers - all of which stems from
consumers' shift away from grout and toward
easier-to-maintain materials.
Key Bath Material Trends
* Ceramic/porcelain tile
* Large-format tile or slabs
* Painted or full-grain wood vanities

facings are popular choices.
