S&W Kitchens would like to congratulate the winners of the first S&W/SSC sponsored design contest.
We worked with Professor Sable Stroud, M. Arch., NCIDQ, and his Furniture Design course. The class was tasked with creating a unique ‘statement’ island and seating for a great room. The presentation needed to seat a minimum of 3 people and show all of the structural aspects of the design – including cabinetry, storage, supports, as well as any appliances and finishes.
There were 18 entries and the top three were truly innovative and well designed. Here are the winners and parts of their presentations.
First place went to Emily Gore and her Monaco Island. Her design was beautiful and her drawings and ‘Mood Board’ were complete and easy to read. The natural materials are very on trend as well.
DestineeVanLoonSecond place was won by Destinee Van Loon for her Not Enough Cooks in the Kitchen island and banquette. It was professionally drawn and presented and innovative with it’s use of two types of seating.
