KBIS 2022
Addressing Today's Hot Topics
A host of industry professionals share key takeaways from the KBISNeXT Stage
TECH POINT: THE POSSIBILITIES FOR TOTAL
TECH INTEGRATION
The experts in this discussion, sponsored by Control4,
addressed seamless tech integration, exciting
brands and products they discovered at KBIS
2022 and how to partner with a great integrator.
Moderated by Arlen Schweiger, executive editor
for CE Pro, and speakers included Josh Christian,
CEO, Home Technology Association; Heather
Sidorowicz, owner and president of Southtown
Audio Video; and Melanie Niemerg, owner of
Integral Systems.
Key Takeaways:
 The use of technology has expanded, but it is
important for it to be unobtrusive.
 Although you have to install a certain number
of outlets to meet code, they can be designed to
draw less attention.
COMPOUND INTERESTS: DESIGNING
FOR THE GENERATIONAL DIVIDE
This session covered how to create projects for multiple generations living
under one roof and how to bridge the gap. Moderated by Avinash Rajagopal,
editor in chief of Metropolis Magazine, speakers included Jonas Carnemark,
president of Carnemark; Anne Rue, owner and principal designer of Anne
Rue Interiors; and Kendall Ansell, principal of Kendall Ansell Interiors.
Key Takeaways:
 Homeowners of all ages are looking for timeless, enduring spaces with
emphasis on function and flow.
 When highlighting the longevity of certain projects, designers can achieve
better buy-in.
 Designers are involving everyone living in the home in the project conversation.

Contemporary and transitional styles are trumping traditional.
 Clients want to know their money is being spent on the most important
parts of the project.
 Safety and health are important considerations, as is having some autonomy.

Spaces like garages and attics are being converted into living spaces for
children moving back home or parents moving in with their children.
 Certain design elements to consider include high-contrast flooring/
room transitions, vinyl flooring over hardwood, zero-entry showers,
wall-mounted toilets and wider doorways.
 A grab bar - much like a seatbelt - can be helpful and healthy for everyone.
Brands have stepped up their designs as well.

BELOW Cooksy Pro smart
technology was all the rage at
KBIS 2022.
 Brands today are able to provide customized
solutions based on the order.
 Bring in a professional integrator at the design
phase. He or she can specify the type of network
needed to support all the choices.
 An integrator can also determine which brands
can be best programmed together and that
communicate well with one another.
 When choosing an integrator, select someone
who will be involved in the project from start to
finish and one who has an excellent customer
service reputation.
 The group's KBIS 2022 tech product choices
included the Cooksy camera and thermal sensor
(below), Kohler's DTV+ Digital Showering
System, LG's Rollable TV, Harvest Fresh from
Beko US and Nasoni's fountain faucets.
