The National Kitchen and Bath Association’s Kitchen & Bath Industry Show, better known as KBIS, is the largest trade show dedicated to kitchen and bath products. Every year, the show attracts thousands of exhibitors, buyers, designers and media who want to see what’s new and exciting. I was lucky enough to report from the show floor in Chicago at this year’s show, April 15–17. I’ll be unveiling my favorite finds, as well as those of Seattle-area distributors and designers, in the July/August 2010 and September 2010 issues of Seattle Homes & Lifestyles, but first, here’s a sneak peek of some fabulous products from KBIS this year:

A display shows what the surfaces in the Eco by Cosentino line are made of: recycled glass, mirrors and porcelain.

PuraVida, the new bathroom line by Hansgrohe with Duravit, was based off the look of Apple products.

Water conservation was all the talk at this year's KBIS, as these two showerheads from Toto demonstrate.
