Seville Consulting Named 2008 Excellence Award Winner by Residential Design and Build Magazine

Seville Consulting has been named a 2008 Excellence Award winner by Residential Design and Build magazine. The annual program recognizes residential construction and design firms for excellence both in business and design in the custom home market. The panel of judges that selected the Excellence Award winners from hundreds of applicants consisted of an architect, two custom home builders and an interior designer. As a highlight during a down year for the housing industry, the judges chose Seville Consulting for its creativity and dedication to success.

Seville Consulting received a first place award in the Green Home category in the annual competition for the Wallace home (see photo), which Seville Consulting built as the Showcase House which was featured at the 2007 Southern Building Show in Atlanta. A new Tudor-styled home which was an infill project, the Wallace home replaced an existing pre-war house in a developed Intown Atlanta neighborhood. Carl Seville, owner of Seville Consulting, said the new home was designed to fit contextually with the existing homes in its neighborhood, while providing the amenities that today’s homeowners demand. Seville noted the project adhered to the principles of green building and the EarthCraft House Program in energy efficiency, indoor air quality, sustainable material use and durable construction methods.

Profiles of the firms and projects selected as winners of the 2008 Excellence Awards were published in the July/August 2008 issue of Residential Design and Build and will appear on the magazine’s website located at www.rdbmagazine.com. Residential Design and Build magazine reaches both architects and builders in the luxury custom residential construction industry. It is the only trade magazine that focuses on the residential design/build process, which is fast becoming the preferred method of delivering custom homes in the United States. Cygnus Business Media (www.cygnusb2b.com) publishes Residential Design and Build magazine, which serves more than 51,000 readers nationwide. Seville, who has both his home and his office in Decatur, is an Atlanta area-based green builder, educator and consultant on sustainability in America’s home building industry.

Considered one of the nation’s leading experts on green building and remodeling, Seville was recipient of the 2005 and 2007 Green Remodeling Advocate of the Year and the 2004 and 2006 National Green Building Awards for Residential Remodeling from the National Association of Home Builders.
