You don’t have to choose between the planet, product performance and the people in your life when planning a kitchen remodel. The attributes come together on many fronts, including some of the most popular choices, according to Houzz.com.
I wrote about the giant home improvement platform’s latest survey in my Forbes.com weekly article. I hope you find it informative in upgrading your space. I know I did! (No, I won’t be investing further in Chez J, as I hold out hope of finding a single family home, but I’ll be keeping these in mind for my next place!)
Kitchen remodeling trends showcase sustainability and wellness.
