Last week the 2010 National Green Building Conference was held in Raleigh, NC. It’s an annual event that’s held every year in May in a different part of the country. Last year’s conference was held in Dallas, TX. It was held at the Raleigh City Museum, and was put on by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB).
Along with programs that talked about new and emerging green technologies for both residential and commercial properties, along with many vendors showing off their latest products, there were a number of home building awards that were given out. Some of those include:
New World Home‘s “NOGM 4 Atlanta”, of Atlanta, GA, won the National National Green Building Award for Project of the Year, Single Family – Production/Luxury.
JR Construction Building & Design, Petoskey, IN, earned what’s called an Emerald Rating for energy efficiency, only the second single family home ever to earn the award.
Other individual family home projects earned awards:
Cunningham | Quill Architects, Washington D.C., Project of the Year – Single Family – Custom/Luxury
