The eight finalist pairs in line to win Caesarstone’s Kitchen Of the Year award – and two R50 000 cash prizes – have been announced.
South African kitchens designed within the last 18 months that featured Caesarstone surfaces were eligible to enter.
“The judges have absolutely no idea who designed or owns each kitchen entered,” says Caesarstone South Africa’s advertising manager, Lisa Aspeling. “It was a very exciting process to observe the judging team narrowing down the field of entrants in such a tough competition,” she says. The judges include celebrity chef Reuben Riffel and Espresso‘s executive producer Bradley van den Berg. The finalists will be narrowed down to a top three before the winner is announced later this year.
The eight finalists are:
1. Albert & Natalie Wessels (Homeowners); Tamara Karstens (Designer); Spotlight Kitchens (Company)
2. Andrea Neer & Mariaan van Zyl (Designers); Espresso Design (Company)
3. Mampho Majola (Homeowner); Shiku Kiarri (Designer); Sterlings (Company)
4. Tom Creamer (Homeowner); Adolf Conradie (Designer); Optima Kitchens (Company)
5. Christo & Irene de Wet (Homeowners); Adolf Conradie (Designer); Optima Kitchens (Company)
