Inspiration for Your Reno at 2017

Parade of Renovated Homes
f you’re looking for some inspiration and advice on your own renovation or custom build – or you just love gorgeous houses – check out this year’s Parade of Renovated Homes, presented on Sunday June 11 by the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association (GVHBA) and sponsored by Fortis BC. Highlights of new custom homes featured on the Parade include a BuiltGreen Platinum, Smart Home- and Energy Star-certified North Vancouver home with
separate coach house, and an R2000 green-compliant home in Vancouver with a suite and in-ground parking, featuring spectacular views from its rooftop lounge. Whole-home renovations on the Parade showcase the transformation of a variety of home types, including the reworking of a 1970s Vancouver Special, the updating of a 1940s Burnaby home into a forward-thinking house, and the perfect modernization of a craftsman-style home in Surrey. The GVHBA said that the homes offer
My House Design/Build Team took an outdated kitchen (inset) and turned it into part of a beautiful, functional great room in this Surrey home
Originally just another stucco-and-brick-faced 1970s house (inset), TQ Construction reinvented this Vancouver Special and made it all about the “wow” factor
not just inspiration but also practical advice to would-be renovators and selfbuilders. According to Bob de Wit, CEO of the GVHBA, where decisions really count, in both savings to the homeowner and longevity to the home, are those made about the building materials, mechanicals and how these relate to the overall design of the home. “Siding for your home may not seem as exciting as choosing appliances, but if I told you your decision can enhance the overall
exterior design, increase the comfort level of living, while reducing operating costs, you might stop and think twice,” said De Wit. “Our participating builders are offering homeowners the rare opportunity to see first-hand what it takes to build above code with award-winning results, many of which may entitle the homeowner to energy-saving rebates too.” For more information on the Parade, including maps and ticket info, go to www. gvhba.org/parade

Adera Development Corporation: Sweeping the Boards at Awards
T
he folks at Adera Development Group are shouting from their sustainably designed rooftops about their host of recent award wins – and who can blame them? Adera has scooped up bags of accolades in recent years, and so far 2017 has been no different. Most recently, the local developer walked off with three prizes, including the top honour in the country, at the Canadian Home Builder’s Association (CHBA) National Awards for Housing Excellence. Adera received the coveted Design Excellence Award, as well as two individual New Home Awards for North Vancouver’s The Shore, in the categories of Attached–Mid-ToHigh-Rise Condominium or Apartment Project and the Apartment Style/Condominium Units under 1,000 square feet. The Design Excellence Award recognizes the outstanding performance by a single builder or developer in the new home categories in all of Canada, and it is the third time Adera has taken home this most prestigious prize. The team could not be more excited about
its hat-trick of triumph. “We are thrilled and humbled to be recognized in this year’s National Awards for Housing Excellence,” says Eric Andreasen, vice-president of marketing and sales at Adera. “We are passionate about our projects and providing homeowners with the best quality homes. These awards are a reflection of this and our teams’ hard work.” Local Innovation The company’s big night at the CHBA Awards follows a great showing at a gala ceremony closer to home, the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association (GVHBA) 2017 Ovation Awards. Adera won several of the night’s 48 categories for its Vancouver projects Prodigy and Sail. For Adera, it’s all about sustainability and build quality. Adera introduced its trademark Quiet Home™ construction technology in 2013, which has been certified as equal to or better than concrete built to code and significantly reduces sound transmission between private residences. The acoustic performance technology was debuted in
Adera’s Eric Andreasen and team celebrate three wins at the GVHBA’s 2017 Ovation Awards
Adera’s condos at the award-winning The Shore. “When touring the display homes, people can’t hear the construction just a few floors above,” says Andreasen. “Sound transference between floor and party walls – both airborne and impact – are significantly decreased so home owners can enjoy the comfort of their new home in peace and quiet.” In another first, Adera is now using Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) at its UBC project, Virtuoso. CLT is a mass timber product created from engineered wood panels with
wood from sustainably harvested forests. Each CLT panel is typically three to seven boards thick, laminated at high pressure to create a strong luxury building material. “Imagine a slab of wood replacing a slab of concrete for the floor. Mass timber performs as well as, if not better, than concrete in most circumstances. It is lighter, easier to work with and more sustainable. We feel it’s the way of the future,” Andreasen says. He adds, “Sustainability is baked into our DNA. It’s important from a triple bottom line: lower monthly costs for our customers, personal satisfaction for us and it’s the socially responsible thing to do for the planet. We apply this way of thinking to all our projects, constantly evolving our best practices to deliver unparalleled value to our customers.” A number of homes are still available at Virtuoso, as well as Adera’s latest release of homes at Grandview at the South Ridge Club in South Surrey.
