We love it in all its species, light or darker, birch or walnut, in all styles, contemporary or rustic chic. Always an excellent choice, wood is strong and durable. It can be painted, dyed or left natural depending on trend and use. It is also the most ecological material from manufacturing to recycling. However, wood remains more expensive than other products.<\/p>\n<p>For look and durability purposes, melamine and thermoplastic cabinets will remain choices to avoid. Melamine products are not very resistant to shocks, while panels covered with thermoplastic resist poorly to steam and heat.<\/p>\n<p>Laminate remains a good economical and durable choice, both for countertops and backsplashes, but since it is often associated with melamine, it is sometimes overlooked.<\/p>\n<p>Lacquered MDF, although a quality product, is overlooked due to its high level of luster. In 2022, forget the gloss of cabinets and backsplashes, it&#8217;s the matte finish that\u2019s in. No more fingerprints or grease on shiny cupboard doors. Matte fronts are easier to clean and stains are less apparent.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-14px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;71px|||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||7px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3>The handles<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Texte&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.27.4&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;1px||13px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||||&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>With a steady decline in demand over the past few years, chrome finish for cabinet handles is OUT in 2022. Its shimmering color, and therefore the ease with which it gets dirty, makes it a less and less popular solution. Matte black or brass finish are preferred. For an even more minimalist touch, opt for cabinets without handles with \u201ctouch to open\u201d systems, concealed handgrips or recessed handle systems.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.maxconstruction.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/imagetools0.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; min_height=&#8221;40px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;24px||7px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>The faucets<\/h3>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;2_5,3_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-14px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.maxconstruction.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/1635523122_plomberie_blanche.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Max Larocque Construction r\u00e9novation de salle de bain&#8221; title_text=&#8221;plomberie_blanche&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;3_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Texte&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.2&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; transform_scale_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; transform_scale_phone=&#8221;&#8221; transform_scale_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; transform_translate=&#8221;0px|-13px&#8221; transform_translate_tablet=&#8221;0px|-13px&#8221; transform_translate_phone=&#8221;0px|-13px&#8221; transform_translate_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; transform_translate_linked=&#8221;off&#8221; transform_rotate_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; transform_rotate_phone=&#8221;&#8221; transform_rotate_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; transform_skew_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; transform_skew_phone=&#8221;&#8221; transform_skew_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; transform_origin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; transform_origin_phone=&#8221;&#8221; transform_origin_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; transform_styles_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;1px||13px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;6px|||||&#8221; transform_styles_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; transform_styles_phone=&#8221;&#8221; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Still in this year, matt black and gold faucets are becoming more and more popular.<\/p>\n<p>We also see more and more white fittings appearing.

This clever and practical storage is currently in great demand.<\/p>\n<p>Another fashionable solution is to dedicate or create, when the layout of the kitchen allows it, a walk-in pantry with work surfaces designed to accommodate small appliances.
