Visit the others, live in ours.
We always beam at the recognition of a "job well done". We have partnered in some award winning projects in the last few years.Indulge us for a moment and look at some of the jobs that have earned us an accolade or two.
Costa Bella - It Begins. . .
We have had the privilege of working with Sterling Custom Homes on several projects. First, was a Parade of Homes at Costa Bella on Lake Travis. We worked all night moving furniture, hanging artwork and tweaking everything just in time to walk out the door justas the judges were coming in. We won an award for the "Best Kitchen" that year.
Flintrock Falls 2004 - It Continues. . .
Next, was our first parade house in Flintrock Falls located in Lakeway. Again, we were part of the Sterling Custom Homes team andwon "Best Interior Design". Later this Sterling Custom Homes house won the "Best Showcase Home or Parade of Homes" Max Award. That was in 2004.
Flintrock Falls and Camel Back 2006...
2006 was a test of our stamina and resources. Sterling decided to enter a house in two parades, one again at Flintrock Falls and another in Westlake. We finished one home just in time to set up another. Both houses reflected the character of its owners. Working with homeowners is a special treat. Creating an environment for the clients seemed to add a comfortable feeling to both homes. Consequently, both homes won the "People's Choice Award". The Flintrock Falls Parade House also won "Best Interior Furnishings".
Rough Hollow Parade of Homes 2008. . .
Our latest collaboration with Sterling Custom Homes was in 2008. This was the Rough Hollow Parade of Homes also located in Lakeway. This home won an impressive array of awards including "Best Interior Furnishings", Texas Star Award for "Best Interior Design", a Max Award for "Best Interior Merchandising", and again the "People's Choice Award".
People's Choice Award...
Of all the awards that these projects have received we are always delighted to win the "People's Choice Award". This award is, as the title implies, earned by a popular vote of all those who visit the parade. Winning this award has always been an honor. We have developed a little habit of muttering to each other while the visitors roam in and out of the rooms. Our mutters have become our mantra. Listen closely and you will hear us say: "Go ahead visit all the others, but you will want to live in ours".
With a Little Help from Our Friends
We could not do these projects without a little help from our friends. We owe a special thanks to Bill McGannon of McGannon and Associates in Dallas for his generosity and to Dennis Teague of McGannon's, who has been our right hand man and our intermediary. Dennis has always been so enthusiastic about each of our projects (not just parade homes, either).
