Loved the feature by the Los Angeles Times covering the complexity and nuances of renovating and designing live-work lofts in urban, historic buildings. They described two of our special projects -- Twin Lofts and Writer's Block -- to help explain issues to the lay public. Thanks for featuring a design perspective on this issue LA Times!
We're thrilled to share our creative warehouse conversion project for the spectacularly unique motion graphics and animation studio, Roger TV.
Quite a complex process, inserting a second floor and editing suites within a former garment manufacturing 'shop' with dubious code compliance prior.

Looking forward to seeing Writer's Block in print with the French magazine Architectures A Avivre. Thank you for the thoughtful piece. And yes, we maximized our rudimentary reading skills in French successfully :)
We're so excited to announce CHA:COL won a 2017 Global Design Award by Shaw Contract for our Skybox project. Thank you for the honor !
So proud of our clients, Marie Lu and Primo for the story on them and Writer's Block on NPR. Great listening to you guys. Congratulations on the exciting new title, Warcross.
Join us at Dwell on Design this weekend. We're presenting 'Tough Terrain, Peculiar Lots' this Saturday, June 24th. Register here for complimentary passes. Look forward to seeing you there.
The purpose of the presentation is to help explain the complex, unusual, often bizarre intersecting world of terrains, topography, unique lots as well as the adjudicating laws, agencies and codes that govern them. All this from an architect's design perspective.
Look forward to seeing you there.
Curbed LA had an interesting write-up recently on the vicissitudes of buying and evaluating vacant lots in Los Angeles and interviewed CHA:COL. We support the idea of educating people about the hidden complexities behind vacant properties, with actual examples of projects in planning and construction. CHA:COL will be presenting on the topic this June at Dwell on Design, so do keep an eye out for it.
