HIA NSW Kitchen & Bathroom Awards 2015 - Minosa

Minosa celebrated their success at the 2015 HIA-CSR NSW Housing and Kitchen & Bathroom Awards on Saturday night.

The Alexandia based company won the HIA NSW Bathroom Design partnered by Caroma for their project at Clovelly.

Minosa along with Liebke Projects also took home the price of Bathroom of the Year Sponsored by Winnings Appliances.

Judges said, “This bathroom had an excellent execution of the clients brief resulting in a stunning outcome. The choice of materials complimented each other which flowed throughout the project. This bathroom had an edgy design which was used through the large open space, large shower and storage. The bathroom had great lighting and ambience. The functions in the bathroom worked very well ( toilet separate from the bathroom)”

Minosa also won the HIA NSW Kitchen Design partnered by Caesarstone for their project at Crows Nest.
