Homeowners have changed their cultural habits, and kitchens have become more attractive than ever. The kitchen is now the center and most important part of a home - the central gathering place. Small or large families alike gather in or around the kitchen for various activities, whether it's grabbing a snack near the island or children sitting at the dining area to do their home work while their parents chop a salad. And, when entertaining a larger party, the island/peninsula area acts as the buffet table for guests to gather around.
Our eating habits have also changed. Families don't dine together everyday anymore, and it's very likely that each member of the family has a completely different diet. Frequent smaller snacks, rather than large meals are often characteristic of most busy New Jersey teenagers and young adults.
In addition to cultural and living changes, the components of the kitchen have developed significantly. There is no reason to hide unattractive kitchen cabinets and appliances anymore. On the contrary - most New Jersey homeowners love to show off the kitchen because it's so beautiful. Cabinets, countertops, flooring and appliances look more like pieces of art than food preparation devices. |
