New Ground-Up Construction · Master-Planned Development · Los Angeles, California
Six identical two-story residences engineered around an optimized wood-framing system that controlled costs without compromising seismic performance.
A six-home development engineered around a single, repeatable structural system — tuned for cost efficiency and full LA seismic compliance.
Six identical two-story homes had to meet LA seismic standards while keeping budgets predictable across the entire development.
