The Construction Source

All the best, The Editorial Team We will keep adding business units that enhance our offering and separate us from our competition. “ ” Editor From The Dear Reader, Welcome to the latest issue of Construction Source Canada, the magazine that highlights the best in building and building products across the country. On our cover this edition is Molnar Group, which is a family-run company with an over-50-year history of building family homes across Western Canada and the Pacific Northwest. Today, under the leadership of Dak Molnar – son of company founder and industry legend Andre Molnar – they mainly focus on developing and delivering purpose-built rental housing in Vancouver and on Vancouver Island. We talked to Dak about the necessity and urgency of that mission. We also discussed ‘Hendry Place,’ one of the company’s latest and most-acclaimed projects, which recently won categories at both the 2023 Georgie Awards and 2023 HAVAN Awards. Also in this issue is II BY IV DESIGN – a world-renowned creative studio that has been creating iconic interior designs for over 30 years. In that time, they have been recognized with over 450 design awards, including five-time recognition as ‘Designer of the Year,’ as well as recognition as one of the ‘World’s Top 50 Retail Designers.’ We spoke to Dan Menchions, one of the firm’s two founders, partners and principals. He talked to us about the company’s history of acclaim, and specifically about two of their most-recently award-recognized projects in the Greater Toronto Area. Of course, as always, we’ve also covered some industry-leading custom homebuilders and renovators, as is our bread and better. A prime example this time is Strongwood Construction, a high quality home renovation company based in Medicine Hat, Alberta. They are another multi-award-winning company – since 2015, they have been consistently recognized by numerous industry bodies, including the Best of Medicine Hat Reader’s Choice Awards, their local Chamber of Commercial Business Excellence Awards, the CHBA Awards, and the BILD Awards. We spoke to founder and owner Lyle Woodward about that award-winning streak and about the quality and customer service that made it possible. For those stories – and many more like them – just keep reading.
