Grand Prize Winner

Eric & Tobi Breisach are the proud owners of a recently constructed home in Kalamazoo, Michigan. "We are empty nesters who wanted to build a home for our four children and their significant others and eventually children to return to visit and for holiday gatherings" says Breisach. "We love old houses but grew tired of their upkeep. We undertook the challenge of building a new old house." Pacific Columns provided over 20 non-tapered columns, which were used for the interior, porch and portico on this building project. "All columns were purchased from Pacific Columns."

Eric & Tobi had professional help with his project - architect Mark Harsha of Fleis & Vandenbrink Engineering (Kalamazoo, MI) and DeLoof and Sons Builders (Schoolcraft, MI). The house was completed in June 2007, and even drew over 7,000 paid visitors during a local builder's parade of homes.
