Hosting this summer? Upgrade your kitchen to keep up. From touch-activated Brizo faucets to stealthy, high-powered disposals by Mountain Plumbing, these aren’t just fancy fixtures—they’re functional tools that make entertaining smoother, cleaner, and way more enjoyable. This post covers the must-have kitchen additions that elevate your space and keep the party flowing, from water filtration to workstation sinks and beyond.

Designing a kitchen or bath that feels stylish for decades means striking the right balance between timeless foundations and trendy touches. Classic elements like natural stone, neutral palettes, and high-quality fixtures create a lasting base, while statement tile, hardware, and lighting add personality without long-term commitment. This guide explores how to mix both approaches to create a space that stays fresh and elegant over time.

Statement sinks are the perfect way to elevate your bathroom’s design, adding both style and personality to the space. From the rugged beauty of Stone Forest’s granite Natural Wabi Vessel to the elegant lines of Herbeau’s White Vitreous China Vessel Bowl, each sink offers a unique aesthetic. Brands like Nantucket Sinks and Native Trails take it a step further with luxurious materials like Italian fireclay and iridescent abalone. These statement sinks don’t just serve a purpose—they transform your bathroom into a work of art.
