AVA LA Arts District Wins AIA LA Residential Award
Multi-Unit Residential
AVA Arts District has been recognized at the AIA Los Angeles Residential Awards, a program that celebrates design excellence and the role of architecture in shaping Los Angeles’ built environment. The awards honor projects that demonstrate architectural rigor, urban responsibility, and meaningful impact at both the residential and city scale.
At the awards ceremony, AIA LA judge Joey Shimoda noted:
“With the bold integration of art throughout the development, this not only reinforces its location in the Arts District, but also adds a vibrant cultural layer that elevates the experience for residents and the surrounding community. From a planning and urbanism perspective, the project shines. It contributes positively to the streetscape, not only for its rarity in Los Angeles, but for how effortlessly it seems to belong. From bold design moves to community impact, their work helped shape a project that’s turning heads.”
AVA Arts District was realized in collaboration with AvalonBay Communities, AC Martin, EGG Office, Brian Orter Lighting Design (BOLD), Priscilla C. Witte, and RIOS.
