Intriguing design details, outdoor spaces, projects from anywhere in the world and green innovation — the entries to vote on are diverse in the 2024 Round 6 of the All Things Home People’s Choice Award. Get inspired, vote for your favourite and be entered to win a pair of Ottawa Senators tickets with parking pass!
The People’s Choice Award is a prestigious trophy given out at the annual Housing Design Awards — a much-anticipated celebration of the Ottawa housing industry’s finest in design that’s put on by the Greater Ottawa Home Builders’ Association.
As the only award voted on by the public, All Things Home is proud to sponsor the People’s Choice Award. It’s your chance to have your say on the best in Ottawa design.
“We are very excited to invite the public to vote for their favourite designs through our People’s Choice Award,” says Linda Oliveri Blanchard, who chairs the awards committee. “While winners of the Ottawa Housing Design Awards are selected by judges from across Canada — judges who are top-level professionals in the architecture, construction and design industries — the People’s Choice Award is selected by the public.
“It is always interesting to see what the general public selects as their favourite design because it gives our industry’s designers insight as to what people are looking for when it comes to looks, feel and functionality,” she adds.
“Because of this, many of our finalists see this as the most prestigious trophy of the awards program. We draw thousands of votes from the general public, and we are very excited to see what design the public selects this year as the very best of the best.”
Last year’s winner was a beautiful kitchen renovation by Eastboro Designs and Parliament Millwork.
