A simple request for "a really neat" front door by a client snowballed into a one-of-a-kind theme home that stole the night at the recent Vancouver Island Canadian Home Builders' Association CARE (Construction Achievements and Renovations of Excellence) awards.

Music by the Sea, a music-inspired project by Qualicum Beach-based Camelot Homes and C.A. Design, was the judges' favourite, winning seven Gold CARE Awards, including Project of the Year. It was the public's top pick as well, walking away with the coveted People's Choice Award.

"It was a true labour of love," says Dan McLeod, president of Camelot Homes. "The pictures don't do it justice. They only show a quarter of what is in the house. It goes on and on and on."
