EAST ST. PAUL'S NEWEST DEVELOPMENT.
>> When the Manitoba Home Builders' Association
(MHBA) was conceived in 1937, its founders — Frank
Lount, Henry Borg er, Walter Senicki, Henry Pehrson, Frank
Mager and A. W. Hagg — were far ahead of the curve. The
first such provincial association, the MHBA even preceded
the Canadian Home Builders' Association by six years.
MHBA members are still breaking new ground 85 years
later, and showcasing the latest and greatest home designs
each spring and fall during the Parade of Homes.
Ultra-fashionable trends over the years have included
features like pink bathroom fixtures, floor-to-ceiling sheets
of faux-wood wall panelling and avocado green or harvest
gold appliances.
In the 1990s, open-concept kitchens and great rooms
made their local debut, and some style elements that have
come and gone are back again — think split-level designs,
wallpaper and, ahem, Kitchen Aid ranges in Kyoto glow, a
colour that looks like a mashup of avocado and that harvest
gold of old.
During the Fall Parade of Homes, check out smart-home
technology in several show homes, or visit builder websites
for a space-age experience — a 3D tour.
Keep tabs on the MHBA website at homebuilders.mb.ca
for news and events.
