The Californer/10035260

BEAUMONT, Calif. - Californer -- Pardee Homes Inland Empire is proud to announce that Altis, its 55+ master-planned community in Beaumont, Calif., has been recognized as a Grand Award winner for Best Age Qualified Community at the 2019 Gold Nugget Awards. The award recognizes those who improve communities through exceptional concepts in design, planning and development. A refreshing departure from the typical 55+ communities in Southern California, Altis appeals to an active and sophisticated buyer through thoughtful, modern and environmentally friendly design.

"Altis was conceived and created with connection in mind, from the personalized comfort of home to the strong communal ties that our lifestyle community fosters," said Mike Taylor, division president of Pardee Homes Inland Empire. "This honorary Gold Nugget Award is not only a great distinction, but also a recognition of our modern designs and innovative approaches to shared amenities."

The winning team behind Altis includes interior designers VER Designs, AI Design, and Luna Pearl Studio; architects/designers SHJ Studio, Anderson Baron, and Bassenian Lagoni; and land planners Pardee Homes and RVI Planning. To execute the standout 55+ lifestyle community, developer Pardee Homes used a tailored approach for more expressive and individualistic community placemaking. Altis homes have a recognizable traditional architecture, but with a twist — a newer, cleaner design. That modern interpretation constitutes a bold step forward in a region of very historically based architecture.
