No.18: Trends and Tariffs, with Allie Mann

In this episode of Design Build Central, your hosts Bruce and Bill dive into two hot topics reshaping the remodeling industry: tariffs and trends.

Our guest is Allie Mann, Case Design’s longtime Manager of Materials and Vendor Relations, who brings over two decades of experience and insight to the conversation. We break down what today’s shifting tariff landscape means for remodelers and clients alike—from pricing pressure on imported goods to how teams like ours are navigating supplier relationships and sourcing smarter in response.

Allie also shares her top five takeaways from this year’s Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS), offering an insider’s view on the innovations, design trends, and product launches shaping kitchens and baths in 2025. From wellness-driven materials to splashes of color, this is a must-listen episode for remodelers, designers, and homeowners who want to stay ahead of the curve.
