At last night’s 2012 HIA-CSR Queensland Housing Awards, Eileen Middleton won the new Queensland Interior Design Award for a Sunshine Coast project. A homely selection of finishes coupled with careful furniture placement and design arrangement makes this interior scheme desirable and beautifully refined while achieving the overall goal of contemporary beach house with eastern influence. Eileen Middleton was also a Finalist in the Queensland Kitchen Design Award.
Congratulating Eileen Middleton, HIA’s Queensland Regional Director, Warwick Temby, said the HIA awards recognise the achievements, both of companies and individuals in the Queensland region, who lead the way in the professionalism, design, construction, innovation and technology in housing.
“Even in these challenging times for the housing industry, entries have remained steady and the quality has been increasing. The awards are a strong statement of the commitment of HIA members in Queensland to deliver quality housing that will stand the test of time. The evidence tonight shows they have risen to the challenge.”
The awards held by Australia’s peak industry body for residential construction, renovation and development recognise the achievements of the housing industry, as it leads the way in the design, construction, innovation and housing technology.
Many winners progress from tonight’s awards to the Australian Housing Awards with Queensland builders having a long history of wider success” said Mr Temby.
As in previous years the awards night was well supported by the building industry.
Mr Temby noted that “Without the involvement of our many partners, important industry events like this would not be possible and he thanked them for their contribution in recognising excellence within industry”.
The awards were held at a gala dinner at The Sofitel and were compered by renowned personality, Steve Hill.
