If I lived in a studio apartment I could cope with this kitchen just fine, thank you.
Hansen Living won the kitchen and bath award at the ICFF Exhibition 2004 in New York. This experience inspired the design of the Hansen Living Instant Kitchen. It’s a kitchen unit particularly suited for small, studio-type dwellings. Place it anywhere, all you need is to hook it up to a water supply and connect the electricity. The kitchen unit contains everything you need: oven, gas jets, electric power, refrigerator and water. To find a suitable name for it was easy: Instant Kitchen. (Thanks Adam!) Price depends on size and configuration. [posted by katie]

These pictures have me thinking about expanding my horizons when it comes to kitchen and bath surfaces.
"DURAT is a solid polyester based material used for custom made surfaces in public and private interiors. It contains recycled plastics and is itself 100% recyclable. The sophistication of the DURAT material lies in its silky warm feeling and the interesting impression of depth in its finish. DURAT is extremely durable and can be renewed by slight sanding. The material is very resistant to wear, humidity, and various kinds of chemicals." [posted by katie]

I recently added some glass mosaic tiles to my kitchen back splash, and the slight reflection of the small squares add such a nice touch. Something to keep in mind if you're itching to update your own kitchen or bath...

Kohler's promoting their new Karbon Faucet, which looks to be pretty impressive.
"With its clean, crisp lines, the Karbon articulating faucet introduces a new geometry of versatile functionality to the kitchen. Intelligently engineered to hold any pose for hands-free operation, Karbon allows you to streamline your work surfaces and workflow. You can extend the faucet fully to fill large pots, lower it into the sink for food preparation and cleanup, fold it compactly out of the way when not in use, or position it anywhere in between.

I really don't know what I would have done if my house didn't already have appliances when I bought it. I probably would have spent at least a few weeks going over all the pros and cons and prices. Or maybe I would have found
greenerchoices.org, where they've done all the research for you, including energy efficiency ratings.

Sometimes a rather small change can make a big difference- we just switched out our kitchen faucet for one similar to these (though I'm not going to post it because it got bad product reviews, which isn't a good sign) and it felt like we updated our whole kitchen. I would recommend the version on the right, because it has the regular faucet option. Also, if you're handy with tools, switching out a faucet is no big deal, but if it makes you nervous, hire a plumber and save yourself the stress.

The new Herzog & de Meuron designed residences for the new Ian Schrager project 40 Bond in NYC are nothing less than you would expect from the H & de M/Schrager design and real estate powerhouses.
The kitchen features high-grade materials and appliances throughout, and to reduce cost, use GE in a hidden microwave and in the garbage disposal. Each kitchen features:
Lastly, you could choose a different countertop instead of Corian, such as Silestone or another Quartz surface if you don't mind losing the integrated sink option.

This is not a bad price for such a well designed and proportioned faucet, and is a good alternative to the pricier versions that top out at over $1,000.

I like how there are no buttons visible, just a handle.
