Kohler at KBIS 2012

Of all the exhibitors we see each year at KBIS, Kohler is consistently one of our favorites. Did you know Cabinets & Designs exclusively showcases Kohler sinks and faucets in their showroom? When you visit you can see the beautiful design and impeccable detail that Kohler brings to every product they manufacture.Kohler in the BathroomLet’s take a look at a few of the bathroom products featured by Kohler at KBIS 2012. Kohler recently introduced their VibrAcoustic® technology on all nine models of their Underscore Bath line. Described as “technology-based sound therapy” the line focuses on complete body relaxation through the hearing and feeling of sound vibrations through the body. This is both a luxurious innovation and a great option for anyone seeking at-home therapeutic solutions. The sound system is so good that you can use VibrAcoustic for your stand-alone audio system.Along the same lines of luxury-meets-therapy, the Underscore line is also building on the current trend of heated surfaces (think flooring, toilet seats) by introducing baths with Bask™ heated surfaces. These heated surfaces offer adjustable temperature control, and provide a warm surface area for a bather’s head, neck, and back.Kohler in the KitchenKohler knows that universal and transgenerational design in kitchen and bath is trending. Their new ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant stainless steel Vault kitchen sink addresses the need for practical solutions, and delivers it with a sleek, high-end design aesthetic. The sink can be installed as self-rimming or undermount, allowing for great versatility in remodeling.Kohler has created a new, instant fan favorite with their Octave™ kitchen sink. Both chic and practical, the Octave sink has deep double bowls with a unique curved basin that accommodates large pots and pans. The design also features an intuitive accessories bundle that homeowners will appreciate, such as stainless steel bottom basin racks and a stainless steel sponge caddy.To see more of the work Kohler presented at KBIS 2012 visit the Kohler KBIS 2012 Press Room, and to see Kohler products up close and personal, visit the Cabinets & Designs showroom today. We will soon be featuring the new Whitehaven™ Self-trimming® under-mount single-bowl sink with the short apron by Kohler—a truly stunning new product for your kitchen.

Contemporary Cabinet Offerings from Brookhaven

Successful companies earn outstanding reputations and achieve longevity by changing with the times while remaining rooted in their core values. Wood-Mode cabinets have been a trusted name in cabinetry for over sixty years, and have been well-known for their traditional-style cabinets but like any great business they have continued to respond to industry trends. The result is the emergence of Wood-Mode as a major player in the world of contemporary cabinetry. Wood-Mode has maintained their traditional styles while branching out into modern design to offer customers a wide array of styles to choose from, ranging from minimalistic contemporary to European contemporary, and even “retro” contemporary. With slab door, shaker door, and simple recessed door styles, Wood-Mode has remained relevant and timely, without ever sacrificing the high-quality design and production that has allowed them continued success for the last 60+ years.
