KRD has just been awarded 1st place in the 2016 National Chrysalis Awards in the "Kitchens under $75,000" category. This is a such a great honor for us. We had wonderful clients who shared our vision from start to finish and an amazing group of artisans who put it all together. We've been fortunate to visit this space many times since construction wrapped and it never fails to put a smile on our faces. Most importantly, our clients absolutely love it!
KRD's "Edina Luxury bath" has just been named the winner of this year's "Best Before and After Bath" in the 2014 NKBA National Design Competition. This is the top honor awarded each year by the NKBA for excellence in kitchen design. It seems we must be doing something right. Shown is KRD owner Paul Knutson shortly after receiving the award at Tryst Nightclub at Wynn, Las Vegas.
