The National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) hosted another successful record-breaking year of the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas with over 117,000 attendees during Design and Construction Week. The Designhounds Favorite Finds program returned to KBIS where designer/influencers part of the Designhounds KBIS tour, the official influencer program of KBIS, selected their top five favorite products on the show floor and bestowed a placard to award each product and brand.
The program features selected brands on social media channels with accompanying hashtags #DHFavoriteFinds and #DesignhoundsKBIS and on KBB Online, the official KBIS digital magazine and Designhounds website and channels.
