NEW YORK, Aug. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/
-- Remodelista.com, the go-to home interior and renovation
website for home design enthusiasts and professionals, and its
sister website Gardenista.com, today announced the champions of
their annual Considered Design Awards contest, which honor the
year's greatest triumphs of home and garden design prowess and
remodeling ingenuity.
Julie Carlson, Remodelista
editor-in-chief, said: "This year's group of finalists was the
strongest and most varied we've seen yet, with projects ranging
from a single-room, glassed-in retreat in Sullivan County, N.Y., to a revamped terrace
house (with plasterwork done by the owners) in the U.K."
Design enthusiasts and professionals in the U.S., U.K., and
Canada (excluding Quebec), submitted more than 4,600 home and
garden photos as part of entries from 34 states (and D.C.) in
categories that span the entire home. From there, the pool of
entrants was narrowed down to a set of finalists by guest judges
Sheila Bridges, interior designer;
Sam Hamilton, owner of March in
San Francisco; Deborah Needleman, design editor; and
Rita Konig, writer and interior
designer.
Michelle Slatalla, Gardenista
editor-in-chief, said: "This year's entries in our Gardenista
Considered Design Awards contest showed an amazing range of garden
styles and sizes, each so full of its own personality and
unmistakable passion. Our readers clearly believe outdoor space is
living space and nothing could be more exciting to us."
