Each of the homes that were entered in the awards this year were a testament to the level of emphasis the team at evermore place on getting the detail and the design right first, continuing through to the quality workmanship of the trades on site. With now securing 11 HIA awards since 2007, the consistent level of quality homes that evermore have produced over the years and continues to fashion “ is rewarding recognition to be awarded by our peers in the industry” says Luke Maguire, Managing Director of evermore. “The big one for us this year was winning in the Renovation category, due to our main focus to date being design and constructing new homes, to be recognised that we are capable of both genres, this was a fantastic accolade” says Luke.
The renovation project was given a magical transformation. Positioned in a demolition control precinct the clients presented us with a house straddled over 2 lots and had plans to move the existing house over to the left side of the block, renovate the existing residence and build a new home on the vacant Lot. The home was transformed from a rabbit warren style original Queenslander to an open plan haven with the main living areas on the lower level, leading seamlessly through the living & dining spaces to the alfresco dining area to the rear. An intelligent and extensive use of glass and stacker doors ensured plenty of cross ventilation and fresh breezes allowing a pleasant outlook over the low maintenance landscaped gardens and inviting refurbished inground pool which was not forgotten about and received a full remodel to match the new and improved sophisticated Queenslander.
The awards held by Australia’s peak industry body for residential construction, renovation and development recognise the achievements of the housing industry, as it leads the way in the design, construction, innovation and housing technology.
evermore have been a proud supporter of the HIA awards over the years as they are a strong statement of the commitment of HIA members in Queensland to deliver quality housing that will stand the test of time.
Congratulations goes to the team and tradesmen at evermore designed homes as well as to the proud owners of an evermore home. The evidence of the winning entries this year shows evermore have again, risen to the challenge.
