The Kitchen Sink and Beyond: Design Considerations for the Heart of the Home
This course takes an in-depth look at the latest design considerations for the home. From sustainable choices to new trends, this course touches on many options to consider when building a new home or even making smart updates to an existing home, starting with the home’s core: the kitchen. Choosing a sink for kitchen installation can be overwhelming with the array of choices in today’s marketplace. To facilitate the selection process, this course provides an overview of the different sink materials and sink configurations utilized in residential applications with a focus on how the style, functionality and material durability of the sink should stand up to whatever life dishes out. This course addresses the details of sink material options in order to create innovative designs when including them in the kitchen. Design insights on faucets and countertops as well as the details of integrating and specifying sink systems will be highlighted. This course also looks beyond the kitchen sink by discussing other design considerations such as home drinking water solutions.
Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:
Review design trends that affect home design such as sustainability and importance of recyclable materials.
Explore kitchen planning options and evaluate sink characteristics in order to enhance design options such as durable materials.
Evaluate how lifestyle is the governing principle in selecting the sink attributes, material and configuration that fits the kitchen design as well as how to integrate into kitchen specifications.
Discuss other design considerations for the home such as faucets, countertops and drinking water solutions
