Woodbridge Pacific Group has received seven nominations in the 2026 SoCal MAME Awards, a recognition that underscores the builder's growing influence in California's desert home market and the quality of its design partnerships. The nominations span architectural design and interior merchandising for three distinct home collections: Plans Two and Four at Solace in Miralon, the Solace series as a whole, and the Daybreak design at Cotino, a Storyliving by Disney community in Rancho Mirage.
The implications of these nominations extend beyond industry accolade. For prospective buyers, particularly move-up and empty-nester shoppers, the recognition signals that Woodbridge Pacific Group is delivering homes that meet high standards of architectural creativity and livability. The fact that all three designs are also eligible for the So Cal MAME Home of the Year designation, to be announced at the November 14 awards ceremonies at the Westin Resort in Anaheim, adds a layer of prestige that could influence purchasing decisions in a competitive desert market. Lisa Parrish, Judging Chair for the So Cal MAME Awards, noted that the team has earned a reputation for notable attention to detail, and that these desert homes demonstrate why the design and development team is so celebrated.
The awards also spotlight the collaborative effort behind the homes. Hannouche Architects of Newport Beach served as the architectural firm for all nominated residences, while Chameleon Design of Costa Mesa created the interior merchandising for each model home. Their involvement in the nominations reinforces the value of strong partnerships in delivering cohesive, market-ready designs. Woodbridge Pacific Group President Andrew Murphy expressed delight with the nominations and emphasized the importance of Hannouche and Chameleon as part of the honors. He added that the company strives to create homes with persuasive, versatile designs and to place them in locations that enrich the desert lifestyle for a wide variety of shoppers.
The SoCal MAME Awards is one of homebuilding's most prestigious competitions, welcoming entries in some 30 categories that celebrate achievements in design, planning, and development. For Woodbridge Pacific Group, the seven nominations represent more than a momentary win; they validate a business strategy focused on well-researched buyer preferences and proven capabilities in land acquisition and asset management. As the company continues to expand in California and Idaho, such recognition can bolster its credibility with buyers, investors, and potential partners. Murphy noted that Solace and Daybreak epitomize the excellence shoppers expect from Woodbridge Pacific Group neighborhoods, and that the company is proud to see these desert homes take their place among its winning collections.
