Three of our projects have received American Institute of Architects Los Angeles (AIA|LA) Design Awards. The awards ceremony, held at the new AIA|LA and Architecture for Communities Los Angeles (ACLA) Center for Communities, celebrated the very best in architectural achievement and innovation.
Among the honored projects is Corazón del Valle, which won a Merit Award for its transformative approach to affordable housing in Panorama City. Designed in collaboration with Holos Communities, this project provides 180 units that balance permanent supportive and large family housing while incorporating a neighborhood clinic managed by the San Fernando Community Health Center. The design, informed by the local climate, channels cooling southeast winds into landscaped courtyards, enhancing natural ventilation and resident comfort, while a greywater recycling system nourishes the lush communal greenery.
