sees the design team, for ex-
ample, and makes sure that no
two projects are ever the same.
Shawn, meanwhile, is person-
ally on-site of every project.
He works closely with both the
design team and the trades-
men, and he makes sure every
element is coordinated and in-
stalled correctly.
Both Shawn and Eve also credit
their awards success to their cli-
ents, whose visions make their
homes possible. They believe
they attract those visionary
clients with their honesty and
transparency.
“We always do what we say
we’re going to do,” Eve says.
“There are no surprises with us.
I don’t think we’ve ever had a
client that walked away feeling
jaded. When they tell us, ‘This
is our budget and we can’t go
over it,’ we respect that. We give
them exactly what they want
and expect.”
“And we always give them a
beautiful product,” she contin-
ues. “We’ve never had any client
disappointed with the quality of
our product. Not ever.”
The company also has a “con-
stant requirement to evolve,”
Shawn adds.
“After every home we build, we
ask ourselves ‘What did we hit
out of the park? What could we
have done better?’” he explains.
“That’s why we win awards.
That’s why we’ve been around
as long as we have. We’re never
satisfied. It doesn’t matter how
well we do something, we can
always do it better. That’s the
culture we’ve built here.”
“We make sure everybody in
our company thinks that way,”
he says. “It starts with design,
and goes right through the
carpentry, finish work, and be-
yond. We believe there’s always
a better way to do things, and
we’re always evolving.”
