House Beautiful Kitchen Of The Year 2014
Posted by KraftMaid on May 23rd 2014
Ann Arbor, MI (May 20, 2014) – KraftMaid® Cabinetry, one of the nation’s most well-known and respected cabinetry brands, is pleased to announce its involvement with the House Beautiful magazine Kitchen of the Year 2014, part of the San Francisco Decorator Showcase.
The home is a stunning 9,000 square-foot estate located in the Presidio Heights neighborhood in San Francisco. With six bedrooms, six and a half baths, wonderful common areas and breath-taking views of San Francisco Bay, the home showcases the work of 25 designers participating in the San Francisco Decorator Showcase. Now in its 36th year, for the first time the showcase will include House Beautiful magazine’s Kitchen of the Year.
Designed by Steve Miller of San Francisco’s Steven Miller Design Studio, the kitchen is considered “the must-see destination for brilliant kitchen design and innovative culinary happenings” by showcase officials.
KraftMaid Cabinetry products included in the kitchen design include a Harlowe Door in onyx finish, integrated panels, roll-out trays and wastebasket, glass doors revealing custom Peruvian walnut shelves and moulding for the entire kitchen. The overall kitchen design includes a bar and contiguous family area leading out to a deck, which is an ideal way to highlight the way in which KraftMaid® cabinets and coordinating products integrate seamlessly with living spaces.
“We love the way that (designer) Steve Miller incorporated our products into the kitchen,” says Karen Brawn, director of marketing for KraftMaid Cabinetry. “Our goal at KraftMaid Cabinetry is to give designers and homeowners the tools they need to create the kitchen of their dreams – whether it is in a 9,000 square-foot mansion or a 2,000 square-foot single family home. This design, and the products used in the House Beautiful Kitchen of the Year, illustrate that flexibility perfectly.”
The San Francisco Decorator Showcase, featuring the House Beautiful Kitchen of the Year will be open to the public for tours from April 26 to May 26 on Tuesdays through Sundays and on Monday, Memorial Day. Additionally, the showcase will host private functions for participants in the program as well as a Donor Gala and Opening Night Party. Proceeds from all events, as well as public tours, benefit the San Francisco University High School’s financial aid program.
“We are excited to be a part of the House Beautiful Kitchen of the Year as we know it offers our company a fantastic opportunity to show the nearly limitless possibilities available for using our products,” Brawn says. “And knowing that it is combined this year with the San Francisco Decorator Showcase, which benefits a wonderful cause for so many children in the Bay area, well, that just makes this opportunity even sweeter.”
