From a modern kitchen that appears to have been surgically inserted into a Carpenter Gothic Victorian home in San Diego to a whimsical and sophisticated enclosed porch veranda on a home in North Carolina, 21 residential and light commercial remodeling projects have been honored as winners of the 24th annual REMODELING Design Awards, sponsored by REMODELING magazine.

The winners were announced at a breakfast ceremony on September 12 in Baltimore, in conjunction with the Remodeling Show. They will also be featured in the October issue of REMODELING and on www.remodelingmag.com starting in early October.
