The National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA, nkba.org) recently selected 10 design elements that have emerged in the new American home. We like the look and, perhaps most important, we like how they complement the beauty of timbers.
Our favorites:
 Stone HearthsHuge, dramatic hearths made of natural stone are becoming more common in kitchens. |
 Chrome Is BackAfter years of yielding to finishes like brushed nickel and oil-rubbed bronze, polished chrome is making a comeback, particularly in bathrooms. |
 Glass ElementsThe use of glass was very prominent in the kitchens seen in 2009, but not in traditional places. Glass is turning up in countertops and backsplashes. |
