6. Throw in a smart sink

Today's selection of modern sink fixtures not only feature an elegant shape or beautiful finish, but some smart versions are designed with storage space for washing or drying dishes or produce and a more accommodating low profile that makes filling or washing large pots easier.

7. Kitchen TV

Just like the kitchen is the heart of the time, TVs have become an integral part of the kitchen, as most people don't want to miss their favorite cooking or TV shows while they work (or eat). A wipeable, waterproof TV meant for kitchens and baths is a better choice for a space that experiences high heat, humidity and plenty of spills.
