As the organizers of the Milan exhibition themselves wrote, kitchens are being transformed from an exceptionally functional space into communication zones, friendly rooms, where it is so pleasant and convenient to receive guests. However, at the same time, the developers continue to focus on improving efficiency, the functionality of kitchen appliances, which is designed to make life as easy as possible for the owners..
As for kitchen furniture, it tends to be laconic, islands and open storage systems are popular. Designers aim to ensure that everything in the kitchen is at hand, so that the space meets all the principles of ergonomics. Despite the popularity of metal, artificial and natural stone on countertops and aprons, wood is still in trend, a lot of eco-kitchens were presented.
Multifunctional islands, modular containers, folding tables, spacious and practical storage systems, the ability to transform the space according to your needs, multi-level lighting โ these are the main features of a modern kitchen, according to EuroCucina-2018.
In the field of kitchen appliances, developers continue to work on connectivity, that is, its connection with tablets and smartphones. Special applications allow you to see on the phone screen what is currently in your refrigerator without opening it, thanks to the built-in camera. This helps, for example, understand what products to buy on the way from work. You can watch how the dish is being cooked in the oven without opening it.
The possibilities for remotely controlling kitchen appliances are expanding by launching the program for cooking dinner in the oven an hour before coming home, loading all the necessary products in the morning. The technique is becoming more and more clever, so donโt be surprised if an induction hob asks you how far you want your meat to be, whether to fry it with or without oil. Even wine cabinets now serve the drink at the temperature you specified, chilling it in time for dinner.
Two more trends are the transfer of professional appliances to home, amateur kitchens, including the emergence of new devices, for example, for cooking in a wok, as well as increasing safety in the field of using hobs..
We admit that not all EuroCucina-2018 novelties are yet available to ordinary housewives. There is, of course, a lot of โsmartโ kitchen appliances. But we are sure that kitchens of the future will become more and more accessible over time and will become more widespread..
