Here's a short list of impactful kitchen upgrades that multifamily developers can incorporate into their designs:
- Warm wood finishes or mixed-material lowers and upper cabinets
- Actual hoods (microwaves move to islands for a more built in look)
- Dark drama on lower cabinets to anchor the space
- Built-in workspaces or desks in the kitchen are back
- Hands-free, touch faucets
- Pantries with space for trash can or recycling tucked away
- "Broken" or defined floor plans for separate zones
- Extended islands with space for dining
- Single sconces
