Four DIG Projects Earn National Recognition at IBS

Each year, the National Association of Home Builders honors the best in the industry during the International Builders’ Show. The Nationals celebrate excellence in new home sales and marketing across the country, recognizing the communities, experiences, and creative execution that truly move the industry forward.

This year, four DIG projects received national recognition. We are proud to partner with the builders and teams behind each of them.

Best Sales Experience: SHAWOOD Folsom Sales Office & Inspirational Design Gallery

Winner: Best Sales Experience

A sales experience should do more than present a product. It should tell a story, build confidence, and create connection.

The SHAWOOD Folsom Sales Office & Inspirational Design Gallery was designed to immerse buyers in craftsmanship, detail, and possibility. Every visual touchpoint supported the brand story. Every space reinforced quality.

At DIG, our role is to ensure that experience translates visually across platforms. From photography to digital assets, we focus on clarity, precision, and emotion so the experience resonates long before a buyer steps through the door.

Best Website for Builder: SHAWOOD

Winner: Best Website for Builder

A builder’s website is often the first showing.

The SHAWOOD at Folsom website pairs thoughtful design with strong visual storytelling. Clean architecture. Refined interiors. A digital journey that mirrors the in person experience.

High performing websites do not rely on information alone. They rely on imagery that builds trust instantly. Our team captures and produces content with downstream use in mind, ensuring every image works as hard online as it does in print, social, and sales environments.

Best Interior Merchandise: Toll Brothers, Heights at DTC – The Prentice Model

Winner: Best Interior Merchandise

Model homes should feel layered, intentional, and livable.

The Prentice Model by Toll Brothers at Heights at DTC demonstrates how design selections and merchandising elevate a space from staged to aspirational. Every finish, fixture, and furnishing works together to create a cohesive emotional experience.

Our job is to capture those details with precision. Lighting, composition, tonal balance. The small elements that make great design feel tangible on screen.

Detached Community of the Year: SHAWOOD at Folsom

Winner: Detached Community of the Year

Community of the Year is about more than architecture. It is about vision, execution, and buyer connection.

SHAWOOD at Folsom stands out for its commitment to craftsmanship and thoughtful design at every scale, from individual homes to the overall neighborhood experience.

When a community earns national recognition, it reflects a collective effort. Builder. Designers. Marketers. Sales teams. Creative partners. We are honored to play a role in helping that vision be seen clearly and consistently.

Why This Matters

Recognition at the national level reinforces an important truth: great communities deserve great storytelling.

At DIG, we approach every project as a long term asset, not a one time shoot. We produce builder focused visuals designed to support websites, campaigns, sales centers, and ongoing marketing efforts.

To our builder partners, thank you for trusting us to help tell your story.

If your marketing team is ready for visuals that support award level communities and measurable results, we would love to connect.
