Charlotte, NC, June 05, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Joan Inglis, owner and lead designer of Carolina Spaces, LLC - a home staging, model home merchandising and interior design company based near Charlotte, NC - has added another design award to her list of accolades.

Recently, Builders Industry Association of Central South Carolina held its annual Regal Awards competition for homebuilders and associated trades. Inglis was awarded 2014 Best Interior Merchandising in the project category of $200,000 to $274,999. Her entry was a new construction home in the Quiet Cove subdivision of Chapin, SC. Judges were composed of construction and design professionals.

Joan furnished and Staged® the custom home with new, high-end inventory owned by Carolina Spaces, her company.

"My company fills a unique niche to homebuilders," Joan said. "In addition to traditional model home merchandising where the builder purchases the furnishings, I can provide my company furnishings at a reduced cost."

Though based in South Carolina, Joan provides model home merchandising to builders nationwide.

Joan said all of her furniture is high-end and new from the manufacturer. "We are one of the very few Staging companies that do not Stage® with used furniture."

Part of what makes Carolina Spaces unique and the most internationally recognized and awarded Home Staging and design company, is that "we do a lot of custom design of our furniture," said Joan. "We not only Stage® with newly manufactured furniture, we design custom pieces that artisans fabricate for us. We use these one-of-a-kind items in our Stagings and provide a unique showing experience for potential buyers that cannot be matched."

Joan is an active member of three local and two state home builders associations. She has served on and chaired several committees, and is currently serving on National Association of Home Builders Design and BALA Awards subcomittees. She is the recipient of many local, regional, and state awards, and won the 2014 Barb Schwarz ASPM® Staging Excellence Award, an international award and the highest award in the Home Staging Industry.
