Alexandria Interior Designer Anna Kucera Wins Kudos

The accolades keep piling up for one local designer. Last year, she was voted 2013 Best Interior Designer in Northern Virginia by readers of Virginia Living Magazine. 

Tuesday, Alexandria interior designer Anna Kucera, owner of Gracious Living by Design, was awarded “Best Of Houzz” by Houzz, a platform for home remodeling and design. 

The full-service interior design firm in Alexandria, with its own private label furniture collection, was chosen by the more than 16 million monthly users that comprise the Houzz community, according to a news release.

The Best Of Houzz award is given in two categories: Customer Satisfaction and Design. 

Customer Satisfaction honors are determined by a variety of factors, including the number and quality of client reviews a professional received in 2013. Design award winners’ work was the most popular among the more than 16 million monthly users on Houzz, known as “Houzzers,” who saved more than 230 million professional images of home interiors and exteriors to their personal ideabooks via the Houzz site, iPad/iPhone app and Android app. 

Winners will receive a “Best Of Houzz 2014” badge on their profiles, showing the Houzz community their commitment to excellence. These badges help homeowners identify popular and top-rated home professionals in every metro area on Houzz.  

“At Gracious Living by Design we strive to build a strong rapport and ensure solid customer satisfaction so that our clients will entrust us to design their homes through each lifestyle transition, as well as refer us to others," Kucera said. "We conduct business based on seven tenets - Creativity, Reliability, Optimism, Integrity, Efficiency, Vision and Community.”
