The Boise Parade of Homes gives all attendees the vision, dream and design ideas to make their next home a reality. Whether looking for a custom build with extraordinary detail from floor to ceiling, or interested in a starter home full of current trends and designs, the Parade of Homes is the ideal place to be.
The Boise Parade of Homes is a twice-annual event showcasing new houses constructed throughout the Treasure Valley - a home tour presented by the local The Building Contractors Association of Southwestern Idaho (BCASWI).
According to Rod Givens, current BCASWI President, “The Parade of Homes is an incredible opportunity for Alturas Homes to showcase our brand. It also forces us to think outside the box by designing a new home for every show.” One thing is clear - You will discover innovations in homebuilding, energy efficiency, sustainable architecture, and interior design that will inspire you. To see some of the best houses Treasure Valley has to showcase, preview the winners here and visit BCASWI.org to learn more about these homes and their builders.
