Tech-savvy designer is always ahead of the curve
Designer Susan Serra, CKD, has made a career of being innovative. From her early days of creating the first online forum for designers to share their ideas, challenges, questions and best practices to her widely read kitchen design blog, her own Google+ group and her work as kitchen/bath moderator for the IDC-Interior Designer Community’s Google+ and Facebook groups, and as an accurate forecaster of trends for the industry as noted in her reports for Design Milk, Serra is always ahead of the curve.
An award-winning designer whose work has been published extensively – including two of her personal kitchens, which were featured in a Better Homes & Garden publication and Dwell – Serra is a go-to source for kitchen design information for national media ranging from HGTV, Better Homes & Gardens andOprah.com to This Old House, Martha Stewart radio, the Financial Times, The New York Times and numerous other online and print publications since the 1990s.
Serra was one of only 17 design professionals worldwide chosen to participate in Cosentino’s report, The Home Kitchen in the Globalization Era, and shared her insight on a panel with other participants of the study at a conference in New York City. Serra was invited as part of the inaugural group of designers to design a kitchen for DXV by American Standard as part of its national launch. Always at the forefront of new technology, Serra is a sought-after speaker, has served on numerous design panels and judged design competitions.
