Forge Properties is a finalist for Best Multi-Family Low Rise Development for its Royce project.

Moody said. “That’s a good sign forourmembership, and for thebuild-ers.”Thisyear seesnomajorchanges in

the categories, although the CHBABC has tweaked a few. Formerlyknown as Customer Choice Pow-ered by Avid, the Customer Satis-faction Award category— its final-ists are to be announced in Janu-ary — is more focused on custom-er service, Moody says. “And we’vetweaked the renovators categories.That’s a growing market, and anarea that’sattractingmoreattention.Renovations are starting to catchup and in some cases exceed new-homebuilds. Peoplewant to stay inthe same location, theymight havegrown up in the community. Andsome of the bylaws to tear downand buildmight be a bit onerous. Itmight be more expensive to buy anewhome than to renovate.”The winners of the highly cov-

eted awards will be announced onFriday, March 11, 2016 at the HyattRegencyHotelVancouver.Over 500members from the residential con-struction industry, governmentandstakeholders will attend the black-tieawardsgala.Tickets areavailableatwww.georgieawards.ca.Since the creation of the awards

program in 1992, theGeorgies have

become synonymous with qualitybuilds.“We certainly notice that realtors

are advertising Georgie products,”Moody said. “We have spoken toconsumers who have bought Geor-gieproducts,andwhohavesaidthat,when they go to resell their homes,theyknow they canget ahigher val-

ue because it’s aGeorgie product.“It’s certainly a well-recognized

brand beyond the builders anddevelopers.Andthatshowsupifyoulookata lotof real estateadsand therealtors are actually advertising thehomes as Georgie finalists or win-ners.”Even though it’s the builders,

developers and renovators that willtake home awards, the consumersbenefit too.“They certainly step up their

game to try and get their projectsin the Georgies,” Moody said of theentrants.“Obviously, they’re going to do it

to satisfy their customer first. But I

think they have a longer timeline inplace so that, when they’re doingthe project, they have the Georgiesin mind when they finish. And if itmatches the needs of their custom-ers, they’regoingtomakesureitgoesaboveandbeyond. If they’reaGeor-gie entrant aswell, their customer isgetting a fantastic product.”

Eurohouse Construction is a finalist for Best Interior Design Custom Residence- New or Renovation, for Millstream Place.


JodieWarrenSpecial to the province

In an industry where women inexecutive roles are rare, NouraHomes is a shining example of howwomen can be critical to long-termsuccess in construction.Founded in1992byhusband-and-

wife team Hooshang and JamilehAskarian, the company, whichspecializes in building customluxury homes, has steadily grownover the years, thanks in part to adiverse team that includes theirdaughters AramandAsana.Asaproudgrandfather,Hooshang

has always had a family-focusedphilosophy. “Anybuildercanbuildahouse, our goal is tohelpour clientsbuild a home,” explains Hooshang.“We do this by holding ourselves toahighstandardofqualityandaskingourselves ‘couldwe live here?’”The women at Noura promote

this philosophy at the constructionsite by taking into considerationthe unique needs of buyers. “Wetake a holistic view in terms of flowand functionality, imagining whatit would be like to host a party, forexample,” says Jamileh.As the lead sales rep, Asana

explains, “women are often the

decision makers when it comes tobuying a home and these modernwives and mothers want homesthat complementand improve theirfamily life.Noura’s flexibleapproachand openness to change during thecourse of construction allows us torespond to our clients’ needs.”This commitment to fulfilling each

client’s vision has earned NouraHomes a place as a “CustomHome”

finalist in this year’sGeorgie Awardsfor their Hillcrest Estates Project onFosterAvenue inCentralCoquitlam.The 5,600-square-foot Hillcrest

Estate home features an expansiveopenplanwith soaring ceilings anddouble-height windows. Central tothehome’sdesignisagrand,circularstaircasevisiblefrommostareas.Thehomealsoboastsmanycustomizedfeatures, from the kitchen, with its

oversized island and custom B.C.-made cabinetry, to the outdoorspace, with its built-in fireplace,barbecue and gas heater.Indeed, no two Noura Homes are

identical. Through customization,Noura isable tobuilduniquehomeseven when similar floor plans areused. “This is what differentiatesNoura houses from the cookie-cutterplans.Thisapproachmaycost

us more, but we aim to maximizethe potential of every home,” saysAram.The extra effort is appreciated by

clients.“Weaskedforanextraordinaryamount of customization with anaggressivecompletiondateandwerepleasantlysurprisedwheneverythingweaskedforwasacceptedatminimalcost,”saysarecentcustomer.“Notonlywasourhousecompletedontime,butitwasdonewitha levelofqualityandworkmanship that was well beyondourexpectations.”In addition to achieving industry

recognition through the Georgies,Noura Homes has an A-plus ratingfrom the Better Business Bureauand is one of the few builders inCoquitlam to be part of BCHydro’sPower Smart New Home Builderprogram, which builds to theENERGY STAR for New HomesStandard.For more information on Noura

Adera Development Corporationis being recognized as a finalist forthis year’sGeorgieAwards for trans-formingaformercityworksyardintoa stunning, multi-phased commu-nity that seamlesslyblendsmodernWestCoastarchitecturewithbeauti-ful NorthVancouver surroundings.Aptly named The Shore, this sus-

tainablecommunityconsistsof fourbuildings — 359 homes in total —in a picturesque creekside settingbounded byMosquito Creek to thewest, Fell Avenue to the east, andMarineDrive to the north.“We call The Shore ‘the North

Shore Shangri-La’ for a number ofreasons,” saysEricAndreasen,Ade-ra’s vice-presidentofmarketingandsales. “It really has everything. Youcan access somany amenities fromhere, including Lower Lonsdale,which is a 15-minute walk away,but it’s much quieter, and steepedin nature.”Other key features of The Shore

include direct access to the TransCanada Trail and a vibrant piaz-

za with a prominent public art/water feature (one of three publicart installations in the communi-ty), which Andreasen explains hasmultiple benefits. “This European-inspired town square not only pro-vides a central gathering place forresidents to enjoy being outdoorsand for children to play, it also cre-ates space between all of the build-ings in The Shore, meaning that nohome is lookingdirectly intoanoth-er building,” he says. “Instead, resi-dents eitherhaveviewsof theNorthShore, of the creek, or of the piazza.This feature really gives thehomesafeeling of privacy.”The one-, two-, and three-bed-

room-and-den homes are built toLEED(Leadership inEnergy&Envi-ronmentalDesign) forHomes stan-dards. The first two phases are nowcomplete, with a few homes left inthe third. Adera recently launchedthe fourth and final phase withsome homes that will have views toeither the North Shore mountains(as well as the piazza) or the waterand downtown Vancouver. Pricesfor a one-bedroom and den in thisphase start at $314,900.No detail has been overlooked

in the design of the homes them-selves, from Adera’s signature Qui-et Home technology, which signifi-cantly reducesairborneand impact

soundtransmission inhomes, to thefloor-to-ceiling windows to cap-ture natural light and views. Thehomes also include expansive, pri-vate outdoor space that can be cus-tomized, throughAdera’s i.D.ByMehome personalization program, toinclude outdoor kitchens, and thepenthouse homes feature privaterooftop lanais.Andreasen says he and his col-

leagues at Adera are “humbled andproud” to have The Shore recog-nized as a finalist in the BestMulti-FamilyMid/HighRiseDevelopmentandtheGrandGeorgie forBestResi-

dentialCommunitycategories(Ade-ra is alsoa finalist in theBestCorpo-ratewebsiteandMulti-FamilyHomeBuilder of the Year categories).“It’s one thing to believe you are

doing a good job by yourself, butquite another to be recognized byyourpeers,”hesays. “It’s also impor-tant to our customers as there ispride inownershipknowingyouareliving in an award-winning project.“We take these nominations seri-

ouslyandappreciate theopportuni-ty tobeconsidereda finalist, partic-ularly in a city where the standardsare high and where there are lot ofdeserving entries.”Formore informationonTheShore
