– Home Chat:<\/strong> This cool little app is meant for specific things like the fridge. It will essentially keep track of items and ingredients inside the refrigerator and you can ask it\u00a0questions such as: Do we have butter and it will reply back via text yes two sticks or no we do not. This is really efficient because you can use the app even out of the house.<\/p>\nSmart Fridge<\/h2>\n
This is a really cool option but in the near future, we will also have an even cooler option (it\u2019s a concept right now) that will actually order food, keep track of what\u2019s in the fridge and alert you when you are running low, and do a plethora of other cool options. For now, though, you have these smart refrigerators. The LCD display allows you to watch TV, listen to the radio, check the news, leave memos for yourself or other family members, check out the calendar and leave notes on specific days and more. It\u2019s quite expensive, at around $3600 but if you want a tech driven kitchen, this might be the addition for you\u2026 for now anyway, until that higher tech fridge comes along!<\/p>\n
Pair 3D\u00a0Design Application<\/h3>\n
Okay, this is a really cool app and unlike any other smart application above. It\u2019s only an Apple App right now, though. Essentially what you do is you bring up the camera on your iPhone and the app will give you different furniture options for that camera viewer. In the camera viewer, you can see how that piece of furniture or an appliance would fit in your space, what it would look in a 3D manner and more. The app can also be used by brands and businesses as well. But it\u2019s also a great design tool for home owners that allow you to set up a room in real-time.<\/p>\n
Radiant Flooring<\/h3>\n
In a lot of cases, you see radiant flooring done in a bathroom. But, since more and more people are also using porcelain in the kitchen as well (its durable, budget friendly and beautiful) some manufactures have started to make radiant flooring options for the kitchen too. This is a perfect option for any flooring in the kitchen, but especially stone or tile like porcelain because even though it does have a lot of benefits, one of the disadvantages are that it can get quite cool to the touch in the winter. In order to fix this, you can use radiant heating underneath the flooring to warm it up before you ever set foot on it.<\/p>\n
Radiant flooring can be set on a timer so that it turns on every morning before you wake up to make the floor nice and toasty so when you come down for breakfast or coffee the floor is already heated up. You can also use Wi-Fi with a lot of radiant flooring systems so as soon as you wake up you can turn on your app \u2013 and have the floor heated so by the time you make it downstairs it\u2019s warmed. Tile flooring like porcelain is a great conductor of heat. In fact, the two best materials to use a radiant floor on are porcelain and wood. Porcelain is a really good option though because it won’t expand as it warms and cools which means it won’t crack which means your flooring will last for longer!<\/p>\n
