dream kitchen

THE KITCHENWORKS PROCESS.

The Center is made up of five fully operational and very different kitchens, showing you functional ideas on how to make your dream kitchen come to life! Students, researchers, and those in kitchen construction and design have an opportunity to learn about the new products, applications, and technologies entering residential kitchens of the new millennium. As opposed to solely learning by lecture in the traditional classroom, the Center provides a truly hands-on experience.

The five kitchens represent various price levels and space designs, and they also reflect the diversity of the family unit today. The kitchens illustrate how to accommodate a kitchen to young children, the elderly, and the disabled.

Contributors to the Center include GE Appliances, American Woodmark, Bosch, Crossville Ceramics, Custom Kitchens, Dacor, Hafele, Home Depot, Jenn-Air, Maytag, Broan, Kitchen Aid, Kohler, LesCare, Merillat Industries Inc., Plain or Fancy, Reico Distributors Inc., Sterling Plumbing Group Inc., Sub-Zero, and Wilsonart.
