Sept. 15 Entry Deadline Looms for BSC Excellence Awards

One of the 2005 BSC Excellence in Marketing & Home Design Award winners. 

The deadline for entries for the Excellence in Marketing & Home Design Awards — the Building Systems Councils' (BSC) annual competition to recognize the industry's finest — is Friday, Sept. 15.

The awards are open to all BSC member manufacturers — concrete, log, modular and panelized — and associates and any NAHB builder member who uses building systems

Categories for new, single-family homes constructed within the past 12 months include:

  • Less than 2,300 square feet
  • 2,301-4,000 square feet
  • More than 4,001 square feet


Additionally, this year two new categories were created to meet member ― and market — demand.

Multifamily: There is now a multifamily category that honors the finest systems-built multifamily projects, including everything from apartments to town houses.

Universal Design: In addition, BSC has added a universal design category to recognize the growing aging-in-place market.

As in the past, all winners will be featured in the January/February 2007 issue of Building Systems Magazine, as well as on the NAHB Web site, in NAHB publications and through national and local press releases.

Winners will be recognized and honored during a ceremony at the 2006 Building Systems Councils' SHOWCASE in Miami, Fla. on Monday, Nov. 6. NAHB Builder members winning awards will also be recognized during the 2007 International Builders’ Show in Orlando, Fla. in February.

For more information, e-mail Cortney Klein at NAHB, or call her at 800-368-5242 x8357.
