Press Coverage...
The design work of Susan Serra Associates Inc. is very widely published, and is frequently seen in these Better Homes & Gardens Special Interest Publications multiple times over:

Kitchen & Bath Ideas, Dream Kitchens, Beautiful New Homes, Kitchen Makeovers, Remodeling Ideas, Country Kitchen Ideas, Kitchen Planning Guide, Kitchen & Bath Products Guide, Better Homes & Gardens, Window & Wall Ideas

We have also been featured in: Woman's Day Kitchens & Baths, KBDN Magazine, Newsday, Remodeling Magazine, House Magazine, Macy's Home catalog, and more.

Susan's work has appeared on three magazine covers and the cover of a cabinet manufacturer's brochure. Susan's kitchens and baths are featured within two manufacturers' brochures and on their respective websites. Quality Custom Cabinetry has recently chosen an image of one of our kitchens to be placed on their new fleet of 18-wheel trucks, one of our most exciting accomplishments to date!

In addition to continued published work, Susan's point of view and advice on kitchen design issues is frequently requested for consumer publications. Susan is a frequent contributor to the kitchen and bath industry's trade magazines as well. And, "as seen on TV", one of our projects was on a recent episode of NBC's "Law and Order" and we will soon be consulted for an upcoming book on Kitchen Design.

In 2006, Cynthia Bogart, Regional Field Editor and scout for the northeast region (Long Island, NY metro area, southern New England) for Better Homes & Gardens publications, asked our firm to redesign the editor's own kitchen in Portsmouth, Rhode Island. We are proud, given Cynthia's unique regional perspective, to have been asked to design and supply Cynthia's kitchen cabinetry and consult in other areas of her home. The kitchen is part of a major feature story in Better Homes & Gardens' Remodel magazine, for Spring '07. The kitchen may be seen here (7 images): BH&G Editor's Kitchen
