TRENDS INTERNATIONAL DESIGN AWARDS RECOGNISING EXCELLENCE IN DESIGN The Trends International Design Awards – TIDAs – start within a country, with awards programmes for kitchens, bathrooms and homes, organised by Trends or by professional organisations . Winners of those country categories then progress to the TIDA INTERNATIONAL KITCHEN OF THE YEAR International Awards programme. MINOSA DESIGN, SYDNEY We’re pleased to announce here our three international winners: INTERNATIONAL BATHROOM OF THE YEAR SJB INTERIORS, SYDNEY 2016 TIDA International Kitchen of the Year – Minosa Design This family kitchen is both practical and beautifully presented. INTERNATIONAL HOME OF THE YEAR The design and selection of materials reflect the current trend for DESIGN UNIT, KUALA LUMPUR an open and spacious area in which to cook, dine and entertain. 2016 TIDA International Bathroom of the Year – SJB Interiors The two bathrooms in this home needed to be open, accessible and sympathetic to the simplicity of the original, early Victorian double-fronted house. The result more than achieves those aims, with the help of some incredibly intricate tiling. 2016 TIDA international Home of the Year – Design Unit The design of this contemporary, tropical home provides a successful solution to the client’s brief. It demonstrates an adventurous architectural approach and outcome, without being different just for the sake of it.
