PVA & Armstrong Builders win the 2013 BIA Renaissance Overall Grand Award!

Peter Vincent Architects and Armstrong Builders won the 2013 BIA Renaissance Overall Grand Award in the category of Residential Remodeling!  The project, titled "Subtle Elegance" for the award and titled "Modern Makeover" on PVA website, is a beautiful example of the success of the PVA & Armstrong team.  Our project was one of four Overall Grand Awards given, out of approximately 40 entries.

The residential renovation created a continuity of harmonious living for the owners that incorporated sustainable design, new mauka-makai views, natural ventilation, openness and an enhanced ambiance that blurs the home's boundaries.

Ko'a Kea Hotel & Resort Press

After several decades of devastation by Hurricane Iniki, PVA had the opportunity to bring back to life the former Poipu Beach Hotel, one of Kauai’s oldest hotels.  Since the reconstruction and renovation, the boutique resort has received awards and press to achieve fame that rivals the brand-name hotels that can be at least 10-times larger in size! 

Pacific Edge Magazine has unknowingly complemented PVA's design results in this month's publication, by proclaiming that "ever since the multi-million dollar reconstruction and renovation in 2009, the resort has risen to the national spotlight garnering award after award from premier publications..."

Travel + Leisure magazine recommended the tranquil, boutique resort as the best place to stay on Kauai, and Ko'a Kea also made Condé Nast Traveler's HOT LIST: Editors' picks of world's best NEW hotels.  Condé Nast Traveler also designated Ko'a Kea as #18 in Hawaii's Best Resorts. Additionally, it has been praised by the following publications as recently as this month: Hawaii Modern Luxury, Pacific Edge, Honolulu Star Advertiser, Building Industry, Hawaii Business, Travel Age West, The Garden Island and more.

Congratulations to PVA for their highly successful hotel renovation!
