“I guarantee you that in life, you will need imagination – this human super power – perhaps more than any other. Our collective future-flourishing will come from you knowing what you love to do, and boldly following that path, and from you using your imagination to face the present challenges and find the opportunities – to envision and work toward a better world.” — Jeanne Gang, 2024 Commencement speaker

At last week’s AIA San Francisco Design Awards we celebrated our expansion of Kresge College at the University of California, Santa Cruz! The expansion was a recipient of an Honor Award, the highest honor given at the AIA San Francisco Design Awards. The new academic center and trio of new residential buildings were designed to reinvigorate the Kresge campus as a vital, experimental environment for education. These buildings help restore the campus’ integrity and community spirit while simultaneously opening it up to embrace students of all abilities, the incredible natural ecology of its site, and the larger university community beyond. Thank you to the jury for recognizing the Kresge College expansion, and our partners for helping create a project that supports the College’s current needs and future goals.

Our design for Tom Lee Park addresses the question—how can Memphis’ riverfront become a place where everyone can play, relax, learn, connect, and grow? Completing the first segment of our Memphis riverfront Concept, Tom Lee Park transforms a historically inaccessible waterfront into a signature civic destination for Memphians. Designed in collaboration with SCAPE Landscape Architecture DPC, the park is reimagined with year-round public use as its primary purpose, revealing the potential for a multifaceted landscape offering memorable riverfront experiences for visitors of all ages. Anchored by the Sunset Canopy, the park’s program incorporates the ideas and input of Memphians from across the city. The program supports their ambitions and favorite activities, while new structures emerge from the landscape to flexibly accommodate a range of uses—sports and fitness, outdoor education, community dinners, and concerts, to name just a few—and to elevate them with the living backdrop of the Mississippi.
