Metropolis Likes at KBIS 2013

Metropolis editors called out the top spaces, products, and ideas at KBIS

Each year, Metropolis editors seek out the top spaces, products, and ideas they really “like” at industry shows, in integrated social media coverage known as Metropolis Likes. Since KBIS is the place to spot the latest kitchen and bath products, we brought Metropolis Likes to New Orleans for KBIS 2013.

The editors saluted designs that are innovative, unexpected and urgent, including ideas that strike attendees as beautiful, useful and brilliant. Our favorites were awarded plaques produced by 3M Architectural Markets using 3M Crystal Glass Finishes. The plaques became a visual guide to KBIS—helping attendees spot must-see spaces, products, and ideas. Design enthusiasts around the world followed via our #MetropolisLikes hashtag, as each selection was announced live with photos via InstagramTwitterFlickrFacebook, and Pinterest.
