Today’s kitchens have become today’s family room. According to a recent study, people are doing nearly everything in there. Along with casual dining and cooking, they are also enjoying time with family and friends, doing homework, working, and watching TV in the kitchen. Here’s what the most up-to-date stylish kitchens around the country look like.

Some of these include:
• Islands/built-in banquettes
• Built-in stations for tea and coffee
• Wine refrigerators
• Flat screen TVs

2. Many designers are also being asked to create a mini-office in the kitchen, including a cabinet and a separate countertop where an individual can pull up a stool and take out his or her laptop and start working.
In essence, a lot of kitchens are now serving a secondary function as designated workspaces.
3. Kitchens with two sinks in separate work areas with the refrigerator located between the two are being created.
The first work zone is for the helper and features its own counter space, dishwasher and the glasses and dishes. The second work area is for the chef with also its own counter space, oven and cooktop.
