Homeowners in Denver increasingly are realizing the importance and benefit of storage and organization solutions for their new kitchens and baths. Their preferences are mirroring a recent national survey of homeowners who recently have renovated their kitchens and baths, conducted by Kitchen and Bath Business magazine.

Colorado Homeowners understand that a well-designed kitchen is an organized kitchen and that creates harmony in your home. If the cook is happy, everybody’s happy. Marie Kondo, the queen of organized spaces has these tips for a tidy pantry.

The KBB survey found that 60% of homeowners are requesting more storage and organizational options for their new kitchens and baths. The most frequently requested kitchen storage and organizing tool is a built-in trash recycling option, requested by 99% of homeowners.  The other most popular kitchen storage/organizational tools are:

  • Under cabinet/in-cabinet lighting
  • Pullouts/blind corners/lifts
  • Stand-alone pantry
  • Drawer inserts/dividers
  • Wine/beverage storage
  • In-cabinet outlets and USB ports
  • Appliance garage

Other popular storage solutions favored by homeowners in Colorado include knife block drawers, drawer peg systems, cleaning product and paper towel storage, composting stations, spice racks, double islands, hidden pantry drawers, pet-feeding stations, blind-corner pull-outs, and toe-kick drawers. Shrock has many unique options to add organizational details to your cabinetry.

Demand for organizational tools, solutions, and systems among homeowners along the Colorado front range have dramatically increased in response to the changing multifunctional role kitchen are now called up to perform as an office, zoom background, classroom, library, café, and dining room.  Denver homeowners are cooking more as well, highlighting the need and desire for clean, well-organized kitchen space for food prep, serving, and looking up recipes.  Professional kitchen designers meet the new demands for more organization and storage solutions by maximizing cabinet storage, designing walk-in pantries and recommending organizational dividers for kitchen drawers.
