countries where Trends has a presence.
The TIDAs start with awards programmes within a country,
and we’re pleased to announce two of those winners here.
Strachan Group Architects is the winner of the category,
TIDA New Zealand Architect-designed Kitchen.
Poggenpohl Akzente is the winner of the category,
TIDA New Zealand Imported Kitchen.
Both kitchens scored very highly against the judging criteria,
which considered ways the design met the client brief,
functionality and aesthetics.
These two kitchens now progress to be judged alongside
winners of other New Zealand kitchen award programmes
to identify the TIDA New Zealand Kitchen Supreme Award
winner. And this New Zealand winner will go forward to the
international awards, to be announced in November 2015.
Trends and TIDA sponsor Kitchen Things congratulate
Strachan Group Architects and Poggenpohl Akzente for their
winning designs and look forward to seeing how they progress
through the next stages of the competition.
