KBB Review Awards 2014 Finalists
This year we were delighted that two Charles Yorke Retailers were nominated as finalists at the KBBReview awards! An incredible feat!
Dan Stronge of Jones Britain was nominated in the Kitchen Designer of the Year – project costing over £50,000 category, for his project featured on pages 58 – 61 in Volume Three of our Book of Furniture. Dan commented: “I am very proud of the kitchen design in question and working with our client to create it has been a joy. To be recognised for something we worked hard to produce, especially as virtually every element is bespoke, is a credit to all our team including Charles Yorke.”
Spillers of Chard also joined Jones Britain on the list of nominees, but this time as a finalist for the Showroom of the Year award. With 1,115sq m square metres of showroom space, Spillers include a Miele Experience centre, presentation rooms, unique samples area with full scale mood board and 33 large room set displays showcasing product from variety of appliance manufacturers and three key furniture makers.
The winners of the awards were finally announced at the KBBReview awards night on the 4th March. It was a lovely evening made even more memorable with the hilarious Al Murray hosting the event. Unfortunately, neither of our retailers came away with an award but both nevertheless came incredibly close (we thought they should have won!!). Our congratulations go out to both Jones Britain and Spillers of Chard for their incredible achievement of being finalists in the first place, and hope that next time they can go one better!
