Winner: Harbor Inspired Kitchen
PKsurroundings in Exeter • (603) 817-6347 • pksurroundings.com
Although
this condo overlooks Portsmouth Harbor, the original, small kitchen was
walled off, blocking the view. The goal was to open the space, making
the kitchen part of the great room beyond so the owners could take full
advantage of the views.
What the judges said: It is refreshing to encounter a kitchen that is bold and striking, while elegantly responding to the outside bridge source for inspiration. The use of the zigzag wine storage, metal elements and details, along with the charcoal cabinets, warm undertones and frosted glass integrally work well to present quite a unique kitchen environment.
Honorable Mention: Farmhouse in the City

This
kitchen, which was once awkward and dated, is now spacious and inviting
with just the right combination of comfort and sophistication.
What the judges said: This
kitchen reborn offers the rejuvenated flavor of a modern farmhouse with
a fine mix of materials and details. The use of a rustic wood beam and
oak floor, white and gray cabinets, metal hardware, along with a quartz
countertop and generous backsplash with organic patterns offer a new
life for this kitchen.
