A vital component of the kitchen & bath industry is a very talented media community – editors, bloggers, television and radio hosts who also share a passion for design. The media is instrumental in conveying messages to promote and explore the industry through trend reports, new product introductions, projects and business news. To honor the demonstrated commitments of so many members of this community, the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) and the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) are proud to announce the second annual KBIS Outstanding Media Award.
