KBIS (Kitchen and Bath Industry Show) is the largest conference and networking event for anyone in the Kitchen and Bath Industry. People attend this show to see the latest highlights in design trends and access to new products and leading brands.

Every year I attend the show to learn and highlight and share with you, my reader, the best highlights and product introductions from the show floor. With their walking shoes on and their cameras in hand, they share with us some of the best new introductions or rediscovered classics to consider for your next Kitchen or Bath renovation.  

Here is what they found.

My color name suggestions from back to front would be Peony, Thistle, BlueBonnet, Viburnum, Goldenrod, Clementine, Anemone, Gardenia and Squid Ink. #mygroheessence #blogtourkbis #blogtourkbis #kbis2017 #grohe #designhounds by @

Chrome and satin still reign supreme if you want to keep it classic however shiny brass is back in a big way. The beauty of this metal is that it will patina over time.

THE ULTIMATE WORKSTATION FOR THE KITCHEN:

Made in the USA, this beautifully engineered workstation provides maximum function in a smaller footprint and is perfect for the hub of any home. It is also available for outdoor kitchens! 

CEILINGS ARE GAINING SOME MUCH NEEDED ATTENTION

The drama that a little trim, paint, and eclectic style can create from the folks at @officialmetrie This is something that I wish we'd do more often, as it makes such a big impact in a little room.

With the resurgence of Hollywood Glamour and an added sense of drama to spaces, we will see more attention to Ceilings with coordinated interior moldings and darker colors (including grey) applications. At EUROCINA ( The world's premier design show showcasing the latest in high-end European kitchens and technology for professionals ) dark colors and integrated woods and stone are the dominant choices for the updated kitchen environment.
