Kitchens continue to be the dominant design area within the home, with dedicated computer work areas or cell-phone and personal digital assistant recharging stations becoming an emerging trend. Another emerging trend is the growing interest in eco-friendly features for kitchens such as bamboo and cork flooring, according to AIA chief economist Kermit Baker. "Water-saving toilets and LED lighting options have become more popular in bathrooms, along with continued strong demand for radiant heated flooring," he added. "Conversely, there has been a drop-off among homeowners looking for high-end features including towel warming drawers, double-sink vanities and whirlpool baths."
It's been said, "Too many cooks, spoil the stew." The same goes for home products retailers. On line selling has its places, but flooring, lights, and counter tops aren't among them. I can't imagine buying something simply by looking at a picture on the web. Sure, the e-retailer may send a swatch out, but is that swatch from the current production run? Can you be sure of what you're getting? Can you really tell what that finish is on the chandelier in the photo?
