proudly brought to you by Congratulations to Poggenpohl-Akzente Winner of the TIDA New Zealand Imported Kitchen category TIDA and Kitchen Things welcome this winning category entry into the TIDA New Zealand National Kitchen Awards, to be announced in November Poggenpohl-Akzente’s winning kitchen demonstrates how constraints can sometimes bring out the best from a designer. Lara Farmilo had two main issues to resolve for this kitchen – it had to work within existing fixed elements and make the best of limited natural light. The judges were impressed with the innovative solutions, and how the resulting design fits naturally into the available space despite the challenges that had to be overcome.
