Center, Allison Haley Luffman facilitates the sale of
building materials to the residential and commercial
construction industries. Working closely with Nu-Face
Cabinets and other kitchen design companies,
Allison Haley Luffman has developed an in-depth
knowledge of home design trends.
Like any area of home construction, kitchen cabinet
designs follow the trends set by homeowner
aesthetics. Current trends reflect a prioritization of
convenience and organization in a sleek and
streamlined package, the built-in pullout tray and
installed bread box being prime examples.

3.  Designers have also begun to respond to
this trend by turning previously unused
space, such as narrow cabinet fronts, into
specialized storage for flat cookie sheets
and other oddly-shaped cooking tools.
The modern homeowner also appreciates
customization options, and the industry has
responded by offering drawer inserts to
order. Some are specially made to hold a
flatware set, pots and pans, or dry goods.

4.  The same aesthetic has led to the
availability of built-in dishwashers,
microwaves, and other appliances that
hide behind aesthetically-pleasing
cabinet doors. Combined with the
availability of nearly endless aesthetic
themes, from dark wood to white Shaker-
style design, these cabinet trends let
homeowners create kitchens that meet
their unique tastes and needs.
