Very soon we will be announcing the winners of the Monogram Dream Kitchen Design Contest. We received so many great entries from around the country! Our judges definitely had their work cut out for them. And speaking of judges, an illustrious collection of esteemed designers from across the U.S. agreed to take the time to review the contest submissions and select the winners. This year’s judges are:

• Jeffrey Blum
• Robin Burrill
• Oscar De las salas
• Paula Kennedy
• Martin Spicuzza
• Chip Blankenship, President and CEO of GE Appliances

Over the last few weeks, we profiled each Monogram Dream Kitchen Design Contest judge. We already profiled our fifth and final judge, Martin Spicuzza with Studio Spicuzza in Chicago, Illinois, on Save Room for Design earlier this year. Take a look at his profile.

We asked Martin what he was most looking forward to about judging the entries for the Monogram Dream Kitchen Design Contest. Martin said, “What I am most looking forward to on judging the entries is to see innovative and fresh approaches to kitchen design, especially a concept that has never been done before. I know that  my expectation of this may be high, but it would be quite rewarding to see a concept that is really creative and unique. Many kitchens I see today are thoughtful, functional solutions, which in essence is good design, but not necessarily anything that I’ve not already seen before. Let’s see what our entries bring that really go beyond the norm and set themselves apart from the rest.”
