Reggie and Trillium Awards Presented at the Building Industry Gala to Recognize Excellence in New Home Design, Construction and Quality
Since 1968, BATC has presented the Reggie Award℠ to member builders for outstanding achievement in the design, construction quality and value of their homes as judged by their harshest critics, builders and professionals within the industry. All of the homes judged were on display to the public during the 2014 Fall Parade of Homes℠. After viewing all the homes in each of 16 price categories, the four judges assigned to the category met to compare notes and select the winner. A total of 99 entries from 52 companies participated in the competition. A total of 15 firms earned trophies, with Creative Homes (Woodbury) winning for two homes, both in Stillwater.
The Trillium Awards℠ were designed over two decades ago to recognize the partnership between builder and their suppliers and sub-contractors in creating excellence. BATC member companies that participated with the builder in the design and construction of any Reggie-entered home could enter the competition at their discretion. The Trillium Awards were then presented to the participating companies for their work on Reggie-winning homes.
A total of 35 firms participated in the competition with 149 entries. Twenty six companies won awards, with Fireside Hearth & Home earning four Trillium Awards; Croix Design & Drafting, Ferguson Kitchen, Bath & Lighting Gallery, Pella Windows and Doors, Village Floor & Wall, and Water Doctors Water Treatment Company each taking home three trophys; and Designed Cabinets, Granite Tops, LLC, and Southern Lights won two awards each.
