Alair Homes Decatur's Intown Projects Win Three Coty Awards

Alair Homes Decatur (www.alairhomes.com/decatur) has won three Regional Contractor of the Year (CotY) Awards for remodeling work on homes located in two of Atlanta’s intown neighborhoods: Grant Park and Little Five Points. The winning projects competed against submissions from nine Southeastern states, plus Washington, DC to take home the honors from the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). The three winning Alair Homes Decatur projects will now be entered in NARI’s national CotY awards.

Alair Homes Decatur won in the following categories:

• Residential Kitchen $60-$100,000 (Little Five Points home)
• Residential Interior $100-$250,000 (Grant Park home)
• Residential Interior Element Under $30,000 (Grant Park home)

The CotY awards are NARI’s premier awards for the remodeling industry. The annual accolades recognize excellence in remodeling across 48 categories. NARI members throughout the nation submit their best work for consideration by a panel of expert judges, beginning at the local level. Local winners go on to compete regionally, and regional winners enter the national competition.

“Of all the home building and remodeling awards Alair Homes Decatur has won, some of the most significant are the CotY Awards, since they are judged by a panel of remodeling peers at the local, regional and national levels,” said Peter Michelson, Alair Homes regional partner and Alair Homes Decatur partner. “I am so proud of the work our team continues to do for our clients, and we always enjoy the friendly competition between NARI members across the country as we vie for the CotYs. We are grateful for the trust our client across north Georgia place in us to build or remodel the home of their dreams.”

Little Five Points Kitchen Remodel: The outdated and cramped kitchen did not fit in with the home’s overall style, nor did it suit the homeowners’ needs. Without changing the footprint, Alair Homes Decatur transformed the awkward and unattractive space into an open, airy kitchen that serves as the true heart of the home. A large island with generous storage now anchors the space, which features counter-to-ceiling hexagon tile, rich walnut base cabinets, gold hardware and black plumbing fixtures. The new kitchen provides space for family cooking, true connectivity to the family room, and a modern design and décor that matches the rest of the beautiful home.

Grant Park Major Home Remodel: The homeowners were unhappy with the appearance, flow and functionality of their home’s first floor. Alair Homes redesigned the space by moving walls and expanding key areas, while still maintaining distinct spaces open to each other. The kitchen was opened up and flooded with natural light, with stylish upgrades, plenty of storage and a true pantry. Special features include a new fireplace wall, custom peek-a-boo shelving, dining room cabinets and a stunning tile feature wall in the upgraded powder room.

Grant Park Residential Element: Because the dining room is located at the entrance to the house, the homeowners wanted a show-stopping feature to greet visitors. Alair Homes created a spectacular display and storage feature that even includes a home office area. The focal wall was created with stained walnut shelving and countertop, Scandinavian-inspired wallpaper, deep blue custom cabinets and shiny brass hardware. It has more than met the homeowners’ request for something both highly functional and eminently stylish.
