Denna Homes has not done
delivered all that alone, how-
ever. The development team
at Seylynn Village also includes
architects ‘DA Architects + Plan-
ners,’ builders ‘ITC Construction
Group,’ interior designers ‘In-
sight Design Group’ and ‘CHIL
Interior Designs’ structural en-
gineers
‘Glotman•Simpson,’
mechanical engineers ‘Integral
Group,’ and landscape archi-
tects ‘Eckford Tyacke + Asso-
ciates.’ Each of those partners
is among the leaders in their
respective industries and bring
decades of experience to their
role. Many have previously
been involved in some of Van-
couver’s most memorable proj-
ects.
In selecting those team mem-
bers, Denna Homes’ goal was to
identify and hire the very best
in the market.
“Ten years ago, nobody had
ever heard of Denna Homes, or
knew what Seylynn Village was,”
Abo recalls. “We figured a good
way to gain credibility would be
to use the best, Class-A consul-
tants and contractors out there.
So that’s what we did.”
Those choices have paid off, he
says, with extremely high-qual-
ity design and workmanship
throughout the village. He re-
members proving that quality
early on, when their first buyers
did walkthroughs of their units
and found almost no deficien-
cies.
“When a buyer, who is moti-
vated to find a deficiency, can’t
find anything, that’s a very good
sign,” he says. “That’s rare in
this industry. It says a lot.”
