Getting the year off to the best of start, we’re thrilled to have been shortlisted in the
‘Kitchen Showroom of the Year’ category of the kbbreview Retail & Design Awards 2023.
Through this biggest and longest-running awards event of its kind in the industry, the
kbbreview aims to highlight and celebrate the immense skills of independent UK kitchen and bathroom retailers and designers by rewarding those who excel in these disciplines.
As one of four finalists in the ‘Kitchen Showroom of the Year’ category, our KC Design
House premises has been selected by an expert panel of leading industry professionals as one of the very best showrooms in the country.
A true labour of love, our iconic building, situated in the West Yorkshire village of Clayton
West, was designed by KC’s founder and managing director, Richard Jewkes. Keen to give
it “tremendous curb appeal”, he drew inspiration from German architecture to create its
unique glass, timber and steel structure, which has since become something of a local
landmark.
Richard said: “Given the great level of passion and attention to detail that went into its
design, I’m extremely proud that KC Design House has been nominated as a finalist for the coveted kbbreview showroom of the year award.
“It has always been of the utmost importance to us that our showroom should present a
welcoming environment for clients to begin their journey, so any recognition for our
continued efforts is always greatly appreciated.”
Striking inside and out, the KC Design House showroom houses unique displays of our KC
Exclusively Made kitchen range - designed to clients’ unique specifications and handcrafted in our neighbouring West Yorkshire workshop - alongside cutting-edge German design brand, SieMatic.
There will now be a further judges visit in the final stage of the process for the ‘Kitchen Showroom of the Year’ category, which is sponsored by InSinkErator. Winners will then be announced during a glittering awards ceremony in Cardiff on 20th April 2023, attended by the industry’s biggest brands, leaders and influencers.
Richard added: “There are many fine showrooms in the UK, so we feel highly honoured to
have been judged to be amongst the best of them. We will look forward to the final of the
awards and wish all concerned the best of luck!”
Celebrating its 29th year in 2023, the kbbreview Retail & Design Awards is organised by kbbreview publisher Taylist Media.
Managing editor Andrew Davies said: “Huge congratulations to KC Design House for being a finalist at the 2023 awards. I was blown away by the quality and quantity of all the entries this year, so it’s a massive achievement and very well deserved.
“The quality in the UK kitchen and bathroom sector is incredibly high, particularly for
independent retailers, so to be shortlisted in our awards is a real sign of excellence.”
