Todmorden business to head to Chester for Northern Design Awards Final
A Todmorden based business is celebrating after securing a double nomination in the final of the prestigious Northern Design Awards 2026.
Trig Kitchens + Interiors will head to Chester Cathedral tomorrow (Thursday) where the winners will be announced at a ceremony celebrating the very best in Northern design.
The family-owned cabinet makers, established in 2022, have been shortlisted in two categories.
Their project, The Old Vicarage – a show-stopping, colour-drenched family kitchen in a Grade II-listed Georgian former vicarage – has been nominated in the Kitchen Design category.
Trig Kitchens + Interiors has also been shortlisted for Emerging Talent, a category recognising outstanding design achievements by start-up businesses from across the sector.
The Northern Design Awards celebrate the creativity, craftsmanship and talent shaping residential and commercial spaces.
The ceremony will bring together designers, architects, makers and industry partners for an evening recognising outstanding work across the sector.
For Trig, the shortlisting recognises the dedication and skill that goes into each one of their handcrafted designs.
Joseph Irving, Owner and Head Maker at Trig said: “Being named a double finalist in the Northern Design Awards is a wonderful recognition of the care, creativity and hard work that goes into each of our handmade kitchens.
"We’re incredibly proud of our small team here in West Yorkshire.
"We might be a bit of an underdog on the night but, we love what we do and we’re looking forward to celebrating alongside such incredible design talent in Chester this Thursday.”
Winners will be revealed on the night.
