KSI Designers Recognized By NAHB With Three National Awards

During the 2023 International Builders Show, held in conjunction with the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show in Las Vegas from January 31st - February 2nd, the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) recognized KSI Designers with top awards in their national design competitions!

Vanessa Crook, KSI Designer - NAHB Remodelers Awards 2022 WinnerDuring the NAHB Remodelers Awards, KSI Designer Vanessa Crook won the Home Bath Remodel award. “When this client approached me about remodeling their master bath, I knew I had an exciting design challenge ahead of me. They wanted to remodel the space to match their traditional style home and increase functionality in an octagonal space, with vaulted ceilings and angles everywhere.” said Crook. “It’s an incredible honor to be recognized by my peers and the NAHB for this bath remodel.” This marks Vanessa's second NAHB Remodelers Award, having won the 2021 Home Kitchen Remodel award for her work remodeling the kitchen of local fitness expert Jody Trierweiler.

Sandra Daubenmeyer, KSI Designer, NAHB Best in American Living Awards 2022 Winner

At the Best in American Living Awards (BALA), KSI Designer Sandra Daubenmeyer once again won a Platinum award for her work with Moceri Homes, this time in the Interior Architecture & Design: Kitchen, Production/Spec category. "We envisioned a modern design with warm wood tones and lots of texture and movement. The goal in the kitchen was to be creative with storage and not just fill the space with cabinets," notes Sandra.  "By designing hidden work areas like the coffee bar and smoothie prep station on the fridge wall, we were able to bring added function to the kitchen."  Sandra and Moceri Homes won the platinum award for Interior Architecture & Design: Kitchen, Custom in the previous year.

Tori Olijar, NAHB Best in American Living Awards 2022 Winner

KSI Designer Tori Olijar assisted photographer Martin Vecchio in designing and specifying cabinetry for his firehouse kitchen.  This incredible renovation in a unique space won the Gold award in the Remodeling: Kitchen, $75K-$125K category at the Best in American Living Awards.

“We couldn't be more proud of Vanessa, Sandra, and Tori for their incredible talent and achievements,” said KSI CEO Tony Achatz. “For our team to be nationally recognized for three beautiful projects is a thrilling honor. It truly shines a spotlight on our mission to operate with a customer-centric focus that delivers exceptional experiences through excellent service and best-in-class design.”

Winning these awards once again brings national attention to KSI’s commitment to creating world-class design, from delivering full service remodeling experiences for homeowners to providing interior design for home building partners.
