What do you think about hanging pot storage? What do clients and designers think about it? Is the look of hanging pots "passe" or becoming passe, do people want all enclosed pot storage? I'm not au courant with the taste trends.

About 1/2 of my 30-odd pots are French copper, my wife wants them on display, I don't care but want to be able to reach my tools fast. For similar reason I want knives, spatulas, ladels, etc, out in the open.

Actually, here is a broader question - what are the best magazines or online sources to find out what the trends are in kitchen design? Not just to get ideas and learn about things like that Rev-A-Shelf that I'd never heard of, but also to find out what people will want and not want in the coming years?

Like, if stainless steel is becoming the new avocado green, or granite the new formica, it'd be nice to get wind of that . . .
