What does the kitchen of the future look like?

What will the kitchen of the future look like, and, more importantly, what will it feel like to cook, eat, and socialise there? 

Of all the rooms in our homes, the kitchen is the centre of activity where we socialise, entertain and relax – it’s the beating heart of any house. And in the coming decade, as technology advances and our environments and habits change, the kitchen as we know it will evolve drastically.  

The true heart of the home 

While the kitchen has always served as meeting place in the home for families and guests, it really became a sanctuary for many during the pandemic, and this is something that will become even more prevalent in the future. The design of kitchens will become more relaxed to facilitate real connection and warmth as people continue to cook and entertain more at home. This means we’ll see kitchen design that leans more on personal style over design trends to create a habitat that is personal, liveable and accessible. Whether elegant or down-to-earth, the ultimate effect will be the same – you and your guests will feel comfortable in the room. 

  

Connected, smart appliances 

The kitchen has always had technology at its heart, but it will transform into a technology hub, with appliances connected to the internet and manageable from mobile devices wherever you are. 

Imagine brewing your morning coffee while you’re still stretching out in bed or being alerted that you’re running low on dishwashing tablets. Actually, you don’t need to imagine these advancements as they are already working their way in to people’s kitchens! Many NEFF appliances are smart appliances and work with the Home Connect app. For example, with the NEFF Fully Automatic Coffee Machine you can start the brewing process with a simple tap within the app and as soon as you get to the kitchen, the coffee is ready and waiting for you. 

If you’re forgetful in the morning and want to come home to clean dishes, simply send the command through the app to your smart Home Connect dishwasher while sitting in the office. The tab counter on the app also tracks your consumption since your last purchase and informs you via push notification when you’re down to your last five tablets. 

  

Sustainability in the kitchen 

Sustainable practices will become a cornerstone of kitchen design, from creating a designated place for herbs to grow to having somewhere distinct for composting. A sustainable approach to design will also become commonplace, with natural light, recycled and non-toxic materials and energy efficient appliances key. 

For instance, controlling the temperature of your fridge and freezer or limiting the energy used by your microwave as well as regulating the temperature and water pressure of your taps. 

  

A more professional space 

While the kitchen of the future will be a relaxed, informal space, the same can’t be said for appliances. Domestic kitchens will be filled with ovens, dishwashers and fridges that to date could be found only in professional kitchens. 

This is driven by enthusiastic home cooks that want to create restaurant quality food at home. Appliances that have innovative product features will become the norm, such as NEFF CircoTherm®, which ensures food is cooked evenly on all levels and allows you to cook, roast and bake simultaneously, or Slide&hide® where the door tucks in smoothly under the oven cavity, giving you better access to baste, taste, and monitor your dishes. 

With constantly evolving technologies and smart additions to our kitchens – even if future kitchens look similar to today, what’s hidden under the hood is a whole new world of possibilities.
