Guide to kitchen retailers: Hello, August 2025 issue!

Posted on 3rd July 2025

Say hello to the August issue of Kitchens Bedrooms & Bathrooms magazine – out now! This month, we’re looking at moving versus improving, types of retailers for your kitchen renovation, pretty yet practical bathrooms, clever bedroom storage, and so much more. Here’s what you can expect…

Trends are funny things, aren’t they? Where do they begin, how do they grow? Some trends last all of two weeks (like on Instagram, where the team have recently been attempting to recreate a few viral trends such as the ‘posing like men pose with fish’ and the rather ridiculous prancing about to get the ‘perfect candid shot’ – if you know, you know). There are, of course, seasonal trends in interiors, just like how yellow is the shade of the summer (funny that).

But there are also trends in behaviour; just like how the nation has shifted to renovating, rather than relocating. As part of a research piece I wrote on moving vs improving, I discovered people are looking at their current homes and wondering how they can increase space, improve the flow, and essentially maximise the potential of what they already have. It seems like for the rest of 2025 and the foreseeable, homeowners will be undertaking large projects.

So, if you are ready to turn your dream kitchen into reality, this month’s issue is packed with expert tips to help you find the perfect place to buy yours, from high-street to high-end.
