The National Kitchen & Bath Association announced the
eight winners of the 2009/2010 NKBA Student Design Competition, which offers
$10,000 in scholarships. The winners will be awarded at the NKBA Design
Competition Awards Luncheon on Friday, April 16, at this year’s Kitchen &
Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Chicago. This prominent industry event will also
recognize the professional designers who created the best kitchens and baths of
the past year.
Sponsored by
Sub-Zero
and Wolf, as well as
Waypoint Living Spaces, a
division and trademark of American Woodmark Corp., the 2009/2010 NKBA Student
Design Competition finds the rising stars of the kitchen and bath industry by
challenging young designers to create safe, functional spaces while adding
modern conveniences and maintaining the historic ambiance of the homeowners’
1910 Arts & Crafts “Shingle House” located in the Pacific Northwest.
The students’ work had to meet the specific needs of the homeowners. The
students’ creations offer insight into upcoming design trends. The following
