The Bauhaus’s radical ideas about art, architecture, craft, and everyday life continue to shape the way we think about design more than a century later.

Recent news of vandalism at the Bauhaus in Weimar is a troubling reminder that this extraordinary legacy is not something we can take for granted. Buildings, artworks, and ideas survive because we continue to value, protect, question, and engage with them.

In February, we participated in A Bauhaus Bathroom, a design competition for a public restroom at Gropius House in historic New England, approaching a decidedly everyday program through the lens of a place with an extraordinary architectural history.

A small intervention is an opportunity to consider how the principles and provocations of a legacy and site can remain part of contemporary life.

We share a few images from our proposal: the site, and our design explorations for The Bauhaus Bathroom. We thank our collaborators: Amy Eliot and Lemon Brooke.

We were thrilled to celebrate the grand opening of the Gene Friend Recreation Center this month, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and a community already bringing the new spaces to life. 
 
This was a terrific collaboration! We enjoyed working with our JV partners at Mark Cavagnaro Associates, as well the with the City of San Francisco’s DPW and BOLA. 
 
Seeing children playing, neighbors gathering, and the building filled with activity is the best way to celebrate a project designed around community, connection, and play. 
 
We’re incredibly proud to have been part of the team that brought this new neighborhood resource to life—and grateful to everyone who helped make it happen. 
 
Here’s to many happy years of play, gathering, and community at Gene Friend!

A little more polished than usual, but still unmistakably us.
Today our San Francisco team took “dressing up” as an opportunity to express a bit more of who we are. Different styles, different personalities, one team.
We believe great design starts with authenticity and that includes how we show up.
Here’s to creativity, individuality, and the people who make our studio what it is.

Last Saturday at the AIA San Francisco 2026 Marin Home Tours, Liz toured two stellar mid-century residential renovations and moderated engaging discussions with the architects and landscape architect, engaging in thoughtful conversations exploring how these homes and landscapes adapt to contemporary living and everyday life.

These featured homes included a residence originally designed by Henrik Bull and renovated by Feldman Architecture, as well as a home designed by William Wurster and Thomas Church, and later renovated by ELA and MFLA.

Thank you to AIA San Francisco and the homeowners for opening these beautiful spaces to the community.

We always say the ultimate engagement is making it onto the pages of The New York Times.

We’re thrilled to see Massachusetts’ Children’s Museum of Franklin, an adaptive reuse project, recognized in its first year of operation and even more excited to see the impact it is already making, welcoming more than 50,000 visitors in just seven months.

Congratulations to everyone behind this incredible institution whose vision, dedication, and hard work brought it to life.

We’re proud to have been part of creating a place where curiosity, creativity, and community can thrive for years to come.

Our monthly design discourse got a whole lot more entertaining this week.

Greg took us on a wild (and wonderfully thoughtful) ride through how to survive the apocalypse with good architecture complete with a perfectly timed jump scare.

From resilience to ingenuity, and much humor, it was a reminder that even in the most extreme scenarios, design still matters AND we can all step up to protect the future of our planet.

He is currently putting the book together, it’s underway, so stay tuned!
