Woodbridge Pacific Group has earned an Award of Merit at the 2025 Gold Nugget Awards for the architectural design of Westwind II, part of the debut collections at Cotino, Disney's new Storyliving community in Rancho Mirage. This recognition underscores the home's excellence in detached designs over 4,000 square feet, marking a significant achievement in the homebuilding industry. The Gold Nugget Awards, known for celebrating outstanding contributions to community improvement through design, planning, and development, received 675 entries from across the globe this year. Westwind II stood out for its inviting, versatile architecture that maximizes an asymmetrical homesite, offering exceptional indoor/outdoor living spaces.
Lisa Parrish, Gold Nugget Awards Judging Chair, praised the design for its polished architecture and WPG's meticulous attention to detail. Designed by Hannouche Architects with interiors by Chameleon Design, Westwind II features a curved courtyard, recessed entry, and a C-shape footprint that artfully blends indoor and outdoor living. The home includes a central courtyard with a pool and spa, glass sliders for seamless connectivity, and a secluded primary suite with direct access to the pool court. Additional amenities include a rear motor court and a private side yard entrance to an ADU over the 3-car garage.
Todd Cunningham, WPG President, expressed pride in Westwind II's recognition, stating it epitomizes the company's commitment to creating homes with persuasive design and desirable locations. Cotino's varied designs, including WPG's Estate Collection, cater to affluent families and empty nesters looking for primary or seasonal homes, further establishing the community as a benchmark for luxury living. The 2025 Gold Nugget Awards' Merit and Grand Award honors will be celebrated on June 11 during PCBC's homebuilding trade show and professional conference in Anaheim, California. This recognition not only highlights WPG's achievements in home design but also sets a standard for future developments in the industry.
