Imagine the awe of the whole family when the ‘modern’ kitchen of more than 100 years ago received its first electric toaster. Technology has grown manifolds from then onwards. Designers and manufacturers recognize the need for incorporating technology into a modern kitchen design to streamline productivity and enhance the overall experience of cooking, cleaning, or just spending some family time together. This is done using a variety of gadgets, appliances, and carefully thought out storage spaces. You can incorporate modern technology into your custom cabinets. How cool is that?
Examples of Smart Appliances and Gadgets
These are just a few ways our modern kitchens can be made technologically friendly:
If you use your kitchen island as your workstation, you’re aware of how cluttered it can get with all the cables, chargers, and devices. Drawers with secret charging stations can hide that messy side of your work. Outlets that rise out of the countertop also give you easy access to charge your appliances.
Another modern kitchen design idea is to install a smart faucet that is operatable solely by motion sensors or voice commands. No more dirty, food-covered faucets when you have to wash your hands while cooking or cleaning. This voice-controlled faucet idea sounds even better, considering the no-touch pandemic we’re living and breathing in!
The daily morning essential coffee deserves a modern appliance of its own. Smart coffee makers are programmed to turn on at a specific time every day, start brewing your coffee, and have a steaming cup ready before you reach the kitchen.
Your remote-controlled slow cooker ensures a fully-cooked, ready-to-eat meal at your arrival. You can monitor the cooking time and temperature from anywhere through a few clicks on your smartphone. Similarly, the smart stoves let you access recipes directly from the top of your stove.
Smart refrigerators stream music and TV shows and have remotely accessible interior cameras so you can check what is missing from your fridge while you’re out getting groceries from the supermarket.
If you’re considering incorporating technology into your modern kitchen, start by setting up a consultation with a specialist!
