The votes are in and the judges have spoken. The winner of the 2014 BEST Kitchen Design Contest, sponsored by Timber Products Company, is… Kelvin Brown of Integrity Trim Works, LLC.

The Maryland-based company was selected for its remodel of a residential kitchen that brought new life and charm to a cozy space. Online voters awarded the project an average score of 8.88 out of 10 possible points.

The remodel used both solid maple and maple hardwood plywood throughout the kitchen. The room features custom-built cabinets with beaded face frames and inset-raised panel doors and drawers. The stove, buffet and desk are sprayed with a cream color lacquer and charcoal gray glaze along the bead of the face frame. To provide a contrasting look, the refrigerator and island are sprayed with a gray charcoal lacquer. The island counter is made of 2-inch solid walnut and the rest of the countertops are marble.

Congratulations to Kelvin and his team for a spectacular project worthy of being crowned the BEST Kitchen Design winner. For his efforts, Kelvin will receive a $500 gift card and a custom trophy presented at the Cabinets & Closets Conference & Expo next month.

Thank you to this year’s entrants and we encourage you to start thinking about next year’s BEST Kitchen Design Contest.
