(Morton Grove, IL) (August, 2020) – Crawford Supply Group's Nick Masi has been named a winner of the Fifth Annual Kitchen & Bath Design Award Contest. Nick has won the Silver Award in the category of Best Kitchen Design in the $75,000-$150,000 range. Nick is the National Cabinet Director for Crawford Supply Group of Companies which includes Builders Plumbing & Heating Supply in Michigan, Crawford Supply in Illinois and Plumbers Equipment in Pennsylvania.
Nick Masi set out to give this farmhouse-style kitchen a modern update, focusing on the clients’ desire for clean lines and symmetry. His biggest challenge with the project was making sure the open-concept floor plan had smooth transitions from the kitchen area into the family gathering spaces. Additionally, he needed to fine tune adjoining areas, including the office, mudroom and laundry area.
He separated the kitchen area visually using multiple textures and finishes on the island. The sink side features maple Eclipse Cabinetry in the New Haven style in Pure White, while the sitting side showcases Eclipse Cabinetry Metropolitan Fused Laminate in Serotina with a vertical grain. The cabinet finishes are also environmentally friendly, the designer notes. Top Knobs hardware enhances the sleek, clean look.
Large windows flood the space with plenty of natural light, and eye-catching pendant lights above the island add to the space’s modern appeal.
