An emerging and increasingly popular trend for homeowners in the DC Metro Area is to leverage technology to make it easier and more enjoyable to prepare meals, cook, and clean up. 

Advances have made using smart components in the kitchen easier and almost seamless. Many features and functions can be voice-activated, from preheating an oven to starting the water flow from a faucet. We expect voice and motion activation features to improve and expand making it easier for homeowners to use smart technology in their kitchens. 

Another 2024 anticipated trend is the movement away from individual product functionality to an increase in integrated systems that not only operate components in the kitchen, but also control functionality and performance throughout the home. Integrated systems enable homeowners to open doors, set light levels, and specify thermal comfort in every room. 

Technological advances will also make it easier for homeowners in the DC Metro Area to live a more sustainable lifestyle. From the ability to better control energy use and leak detection systems that automatically cut off water supply to lighting systems that use a fraction of the energy of prior generations, we anticipate an increasing number of products that are more environmentally friendly and less costly to operate.
