This project represents some of the most rewarding work we have done as a firm. Located on the East/West transit corridor of Santa Barbara, the development is ideally located for working-class families. With a central courtyard, community garden, and play structure for kids, the design fosters community and establishes a sense of home. As a Passive House Certified project, our team achieved ambitious sustainability goals, revealing the beauty of combining affordable housing with environmental stewardship.
