IRVINE, CALIF. - Award-winning KTGY GROUP, INC., Architecture and Planning, is pleased to announce it has received finalist recognition for three of its projects in the Builder’s Choice Design & Planning Awards competition. This is the 27th year for the Builder’s Choice Awards, the housing industry’s most prestigious design awards program. To commemorate the winning projects, an awards show will be held at The Ritz Carlton Hotel in Washington, D.C. in October 2007.
“KTGY is excited and honored to be recognized,” stated Chris Texter, AIA, principal at KTGY. “Great projects are a result of our commitment and the efforts of our great design team and the dedication of our clients.” Winners will be featured in the October 2007 issue of Builder magazine, the official magazine of the National Association of Home Builders.
Royal Court in Morgan Hill, Calif. received recognition in the Single Family Detached Product category. It consists of 12 detached single family homes targeting well-employed families priced out of market rate homes. The project includes nine affordable and three market rate homes that blend comfortably with new adjacent apartments.
Nuevo Amanecer Apartments in Pajaro, Calif. is recognized in the Affordable Housing Community category. These are affordable, quality homes for low income migrant and resident farm workers who were living on the site. The developer for both Royal Court and Nuevo Amanecer Apartments was South County Housing Corporation (SCH) of Gilroy, Calif. South County Community Builders (an affiliate of SCH) was the builder of the Royal Court single family homes. Segue Construction of Richmond, Calif. was the builder of the Nuevo Amanecer Apartments.
“I am happy that the collaborative process that created both Royal Court and Nuevo Amanecer has been so well received,” stated David Senden, design principal of Royal Court and Nuevo Amanecer Apartments. “It is very rewarding to build housing that normal working folks can afford.”
