Each year, the Modular Building Institute recognizes the leaders in the industry by presenting their Awards of Distinction to recognize the best modular projects in the world. The projects are scored in four categories by an official panel of judges. Those categories include: architectural excellence, technical innovation, cost-effectiveness / energy efficiency, and calendar days to complete.
This year’s conference was held in Orlando. As is customary on the last evening of the event, the highly anticipated awards dinner took place. Pac-Van’s award entries this year included a renovated modular building that was turned into a bar & restaurant, a two-story modular office for a school district, a modular convenience store, and a modular veterinarian’s office.
Pac-Van captured the coveted Best in Show award and First Place in the Renovated Re-use, Greatest Revision under 10,000 sf category for the Pirate’s Cove in southern California. The modular restaurant by Pac-Van includes outdoor seating and beach themed décor as well as large windows that allow patrons to enjoy the waterfront view.
