Reserve your seat and be among the first to hear the findings of this comprehensive new research from the NKBA and learn the four distinct lifestyle themes that are impacting design decisions for the kitchen and bath. Seating is Limited.
From Millennials to Baby Boomers, the way we live in our homes is shifting. Our lives are more connected, less cluttered, healthier, active and more engaged. There is a desire to adapt spaces to live in place longer and smarter. All of this is changing how kitchens and baths are designed.
The NKBA welcomes designer, Kerrie Kelly, Kerrie Kelly Design Lab, to present the findings of its new Lifestyle Impacts Design study, which analyzes the effect of people’s behaviors and habits on design trends and themes.
Kelly will be joined by designers, Jonas Carnemark, CKD, CLIPP, Sarah Robertson, AKBD and Laurence Carr to discuss these long term impacts in kitchen and bath design and the products we use in them.
This event qualifies for .1 CEUs.
