"The goal of my kitchen design was to combine many different materials and appliances in such a way that they form a unity," said 2010-2012 first place contemporary winner Davy Swanenberg of Culimaat Kitchens, Berlicum, Netherlands. "Both the Wolf dual fuel range and Sub-Zero built-in refrigerators are highlights of my kitchen, because it was the desire of the owner and my starting point for the entire project." 

Eligibility for the contest requires that all design and construction be fully completed within the contest period of January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2014.  Qualifying kitchen designs must include at least one full-size Sub-Zero built-in or integrated refrigeration unit and at least one Wolf cooking appliance, including ranges, rangetops, ovens and cooktops. Entries must also include a floor plan and elevations or perspective drawings, a minimum of two color photographs of the completed design, and details describing the kitchen design.

Contest entries will be evaluated by a panel of seven esteemed judges from various disciplines within the design community. Designs will be critiqued on the innovative use of space and application of Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances. 

Since its inception in 1993, the Sub-Zero and Wolf Kitchen Design Contest has become a coveted win in the professional home design category. The Kitchen Design Contest recognizes kitchen designers, architects, interior designers, builders and remodelers for advancing outstanding kitchen design.
