Today, I’m going talk about some of the biggest product trends from the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show 2026—in Orlando, Florida. This kitchen show is not open to the public but there are several ways to actually see the products without going. Or you could just listen to me. I am going to give you my honest opinion of some items. Let’s get into it. Workstation Sinks Rev-a-shelf cabinet accessories Open Shelving in kitchens Charging Countertops Kohler Dekoda monitoring device Free standing tubs While innovation is exciting…The smartest designs are still the simplest ones. So before you jump on any of these trends, ask yourself: Will I use this every day? Workstation sinks, large cooktops and ranges Does it simplify my life—or complicate it? Are you confused with technology And most importantly… is it worth the cost? We have talked about the ROI before. Do your homework Because good design isn’t about having more. It’s about having what actually works. If you’re planning on a renovation , I would definitely be happy to work with you. You can email me anytime at Nancy@NancyHugo.com —I’d love to hear from you.","meta_description":"Welcome to Home Design Chat with Nancy , where we tell you the truth about what’s happening in the design world—what’s worth your money… and what’s just t…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1579,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/home-design-chat-with-nancy-810455/episodes/kbis-2026-kitchen-trends-what-s-worth-it-what-s-overhyped-what-to-skip/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/home-design-chat-with-nancy-810455/kbis-2026-kitchen-trends-what-s-worth-it-what-s-overhyped-what-to-skip.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
