Trillium Awards 2011
The Trillium Awards were designed over two decades ago to recognize the partnership between builders and their suppliers and sub-contractors in creating excellence. This year, the program was revamped to allow companies that worked with the builder in the design and construction of each Reggie-entered home to participate at their choice. The Trillium Awards were then presented to all participating companies for their work on the homes winning a Reggie Award. (Reggie Awards are given to builders for outstanding achievement in the design, quality and value of their comes as judged by their harshest critics, builders and professionals within the industry. This year they added a little twist by including one consumer judge in each category. All of the homes judged were on display to the public during the 2011 Parade of Homes Fall Showcase, and then the judges in each category met to compare notes and select the winners. A total of 144 homes were entered in the competition, divided into 14 price categories, with one winner awarded in each category.)  Best Home valued at $750,000-$999,999: J.B. Woodfitters & Associates, LLC for their home in Credit River Township. Trillium Award winners include Granite-Tops and Designed Cabinets.
