NKBA Releases Living Impacts Design Study

摘要

As part of its ongoing commitment to provide insights into the kitchen and bath industry, the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) released benchmark research on the impact people's behavior, life stage and habits have on kitchen and bath design. NKBA Living Impacts Design research is a comprehensive study that examines the outside influences transforming how kitchens and baths will be designed over the next three years. "The role our homes play in our lives has never been so evident as it has these last few months," said Bill Darcy, NKBA CEO. "Even before months of quarantine and working from home created new challenges, understanding the impact of how we live in these spaces and its effect on design, specifically in the kitchen and bath, was something we wanted to investigate. It's extremely important for our members to better understand the 'why' behind what's impacting design, not just the 'what.' It's critical to know how people's personal goals and habits change the way the kitchen and bath are designed, as well as the products used in them, to improve our lives.
