Haciendas—A Parade of Homes Welcome to Santa Fe’s Best Open House A Message from Parade of Homes Chair Teri Buhl Welcome to the 19th annual Haciendas—A Parade of Homes. As always, the Santa Fe Area Home Builders Association will be showcasing homes that exhibit Santa Fe’s unique style of design and building. Our wonderful builders and remodelers will be competing for the following awards this year: Best Design, Best Kitchen, Best Outdoor Living Space, Best Craftsmanship, and the coveted Grand Haciendas designation. Once again, don’t forget to cast your vote for the People’s Choice award, where you get to be the judge. We love to hear from you regarding what you think makes a great Santa Fe–style home, so use your ticket number to vote on-line at haciendasmagazine.com during the parade. Some of the builders will also compete for the Excellence in Green Building awards, so ask about each home’s green features. Since we live in the high desert, where resources are precious, our enlightened builders have proven once again that green can be affordable and beautiful as well as functional. In keeping with Santa Fe’s tradition of innovation and leadership in green building, this year’s parade includes the first certified passive house in the Southwest (17th in the U.S.), along with homes that feature pumice-crete building materials, photovoltaic panels, hydronic systems, extensive use of low VOC paints, and creative sustainable water-management strategies. Once again, we also have some very fine examples of remodeling. Our builders come from a variety of backgrounds, but they all have one thing in common: pride of place and a deep desire to maintain the character of Santa Fe. You will find a pleasing variety of architectural styles, ranging from traditional to modern in this year’s self-guided tour. It takes a large team of people to pull off a successful event, so I would like to thank the many sponsors, committee chairs, volunteers, and judges who work so hard in planning the myriad details that bring the parade to the public. We couldn’t do it without you! And since part of the proceeds from ticket sales go to local charities and high schools, a big thank you goes to the young people of our community who volunteered to be ticket ambassadors and greet the public at each house. Whether you are new to the parade or a veteran of Santa Fe’s Best Open House, we look forward to meeting you on the tour!
