One of our favorite times of year is the Home Builder’s Association Parade of Homes. Whether it be in the spring or fall, the PoH presents an opportunity for industry members and homebuyers to experience the latest trends and innovations from architects and home builders.

The creativity and style in which our collections were used surprised even us, and WE are the ones who produce these products! Here are some of the favorite applications we saw, we hope these homes provide inspiration to enhance your space!
