Of the different
rooms or sections of the home, Brisbane kitchens are
perhaps the busiest, most utilized and action-filled area. For this reason, it
has been a focus of forward-looking product makers and designers. The
next-generation kitchen innovations that I’ve listed below are inspired by the
3 aspects of the kitchen that most consumers seem to care most, and these are –
Efficiency, enjoyment and environmental consciousness.
Integrated
Compost Bins/Containers
Compost bins and
containers are no longer relegated to the backyard of today’s modern Brisbane kitchens, because they’re now also
considered as standard appliance features. Today, all you need to do is dump
all organic material; into your disposal, hit the compost button, and pull out
a special bin with your newly-composted material when you’re ready to use it!
Built-in
LCD Screens
Another popular
innovation in the Brisbane kitchens of the future includes built-in LCD
screens. This built-in countertop computer not only serves to allow you to
operate your kitchen appliances and lights from a handy touch screen, but it
also doubles as an in-kitchen entertainment system, where you can watch your
favorite TV shows, read the online newspapers, listen to music, and even watch
how-to videos as you cook your preferred recipes.
Digital
Home Systems
With digital home
systems in today’s modern Brisbane kitchens, the possibilities are endless as
you now have a digital version of a dry-erase board, eco-meter and communications
station. You could even check the weather and the time.
And of course, you
can also chat your friends and co-workers, as well as track your home’s
real-time consumption of electricity and water, and even organize your recipes.
In addition the digital home system also enables you to merge your fridge’s
inventory control system with your chosen recipes and your newly-formed grocery
list.
Multi-Functional
Cabinets
Before, the
dishwasher and the kitchen cabinet were different items. But, today they’re now
one and the same, with the development of modular cabinets which include
dishwashing technology, making doing the dishes and putting them away one and
the same.
Advanced
Kitchen Appliance Programming
Another game-changing
innovation in the Brisbane kitchens of the future includes advanced programming
for appliances. Product developers anticipate that all kitchen appliances will
soon be controlled through online apps. This means that you can actually play
with your kids in the garden while turning down the heat on your cooking.
Touch-Free
Technology
Apart from saving on
time and money, touch-free technology in the Brisbane kitchens of the near
future (Or perhaps even now?) will effectively reduce the spread of germs and
bacteria, as well as promote a healthier lifestyle at home.
Well, in truth this
technology is already available today, especially or water faucets, soap
dispensers and lighting. Thus, expect this to become more mainstream, as well
as find its way into the other aspects of the kitchen.
Wireless
Appliances
In the Brisbane
kitchens of the near-future (Or even today I think), wireless technology will
replace traditional power cords and wires.
This is expected to make its way to your hand mixer, blender, toaster
and other small kitchen appliances, and will allow you to free up more counter
space, do away with cord tangles and reduce the hazards associated with
electrocution.
