The Aurora Awards are presented annually to outstanding builders, planners, architects, developers, designers, interior merchandisers, and other housing-related professionals.

Best Interior Renovation

Riviera Country Club in Coral Gables, Florida, wanted to update its Family Grille area. Initially a relaxed poolside café, it was transformed into an upscale 19th-hole grille with a vibrant bar atmosphere. The redesign focused on interior finishes, preserving the original layout, ceiling, millwork, windows, and doors. The result is a sophisticated, inviting space that perfectly blends style and comfort. Learn more about the project and see images here.

Best Recreation Facility or Amenity

Eastpointe Country Club in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, transformed to meet the needs of young families by creating The Pointe. The fitness facility offered state-of-the-art equipment, while the casual bistro and bar provided versatile spaces for family gatherings. The large pool area became a focal point for recreation and family gatherings, offering outdoor dining with picturesque views, making The Pointe a community hub.
