This highly coveted annual awards program celebrates the best innovations in design and function across eight categories including kitchen and bath, outdoor and recreational, HVAC, finishes and surfacing, lighting and electrical, opening, furnishings and facades.

This year, LG Studio's gas slide-in range – model LSSG3016ST – led the competition with its high-end design and state-of-the-art technological advancements.
Renowned interior designer and LG Studio artistic advisor, Nate Berkus, advised on the design of the recently debuted LG Studio kitchen suite – including the gas slide-in range, ensuring the line embodies a premium, sophisticated design. Berkus' influence is exhibited in the range's pro-style, flat-design control panel with robust metal nobs; tilted display with SmoothTouch™ glass controls and a distinctive, sleek wave handle.
The range features LG's new ProBake Convection™ technology which provides optimal heat distribution by moving the heating element from the bottom of the oven to the back, providing even cooking on every rack, every time.
