The Jennings & Co. team was excited to be on-site for the 9th annual BDNY fair, a two-day marathon of tours and networking offering a source of endless inspiration.

We were excited to be in Seattle recently for the 18th annual Decorative Plumbing & Hardware Association (DPHA) conference.

Explore the latest chapter of trends in kitchen and bath design. Evolving styles tell a fascinating story of creativity and innovation. Trends unfold like the pages of a book.

Classic styles are our favorites for a reason. Their timeless appeal looks good anywhere. When it comes to remodeling projects or new construction, it’s fun to get inspired by new products, especially those that put an innovative spin on the favorites we’ve always loved. 

Smart design never goes out of style. In our industry, “smart” design encompasses good looks and durability as well as innovative products that offer solutions and keep customers engaged and interested. Accessibility is a key component in any design as changing demographics promote a growing interest in products that meet universal design standards. 

Bathrooms may be a practical necessity in every home, but it doesn’t mean they can’t also be a beautiful and luxurious space to refresh the body and renew the spirit.

Universal design is not a trend, but a real and growing movement that seeks to maximize the usability of a space for people regardless of their age, size or ability.

The secret to creating an unforgettable design space is all about the drama. The most memorable kitchens and baths all have an element of daring — a decisive “wow factor” that makes a lasting impression. 

Technology is playing a key role in today’s trends too, giving rise to improvements that foster healing therapies or help to create healthier, more sanitary environments. 

A new year is the perfect time to take a second look at your design space and refresh with some trending ideas that will inject new energy and excitement.
