LDa Principals, John Day and Kyle Sheffield, got to participate in dynamic discussions tackling different issues and trends that are happening in the design industry. Keep reading on to see what they got up to!</p> <p>To kick off the beginning of Boston Design Week, we got to talk all about <em>"Sustainable Luxury"</em> at the new Artefact showroom located in the South End. The expert panelists talked all about how there are endless ways to incorporate sustainable materials and a sustainable philosophy when working on a design project. From the way we build, furnish, and landscape our projects, there are always more opportunities to include sustainable design, especially when it comes to more luxurious projects.</p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/bdw_1.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 1600px;" /></p> <p class="rtecenter"><em>From Left to Right: Colleen Barry - Gibson Sotheby's International Realty | John Day - LDa Architecture &amp; Interiors | Tom Verellen - Verellen Furniture | </em><em style="text-align: center;">Gregory Lombardi - Gregory Lombardi Design</em></p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/bdw_2.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 900px;" /></p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/bdw_4.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 1600px;" /></p> <p class="rtecenter"><em>A tiny glimpse of the new Artefact showroom in the South End!</em></p> <p class="rtecenter"> </p> <p>Up next was the <em>"Building Your Happy Home: Trust &amp; Fear In Construction"</em> panel at the Scavolini showroom. Centered around helping homeowners tackle certain issues and concerns, these expert panelists from every facet of the design industry got to discuss in depth their advice and suggestions when taking on a project of any scale. </p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/happyhome_2.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 556px;" /></p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/happyhome_3.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 1376px;" /></p> <p class="rtecenter"><em>From Left to Right: Alisha Serras - Scavolini Showroom | Sarah Lawson - </em><em>S</em><em>+H Construction | Kyle Sheffield  - LDa Architecture &amp; Interiors  | David Lupberger - Remodel Force  |  Lisa Catapano - Life Coach</em></p> <p>A special thank you to everyone who showed up at each event-- we love having the opportunity to collaborate with our peers and discuss what's going on in the design industry!</p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="/explore-lda/list/events">Events</a></div><div class="field-item odd"><a href="/explore-lda/list/boston-design-week">Boston Design Week</a></div></div></div> Wed, 10 Apr 2019 18:54:28 +0000 LDa 2555 at https://lda-architects.com Mini-Designers at LDa! https://lda-architects.com/explore-lda/mini-designers-lda <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>On Tuesday we had a different type of "client" meeting and got to host a local kindergarten class! They just started a course on construction, so we had them tour the office and then learn about the process of designing and building. Throughout the year the class has been touring local buildings to get a better sense of size, scale, and types of buildings; but we thought it would be especially fun if they could see how a project all comes together before it is actually built, right here in our office! Two of our architects, <a href="https://lda-architects.com/our-firm/directory">Kimberly Barnett </a>and <a href="https://lda-architects.com/our-firm/directory">Julieta Ohri</a> showed the kids what it's like to design a project from start to finish, and then we got to color and brainstorm ideas with materials. All in all, we had a blast and can't to see what these little designers get up to in the future!</p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/kls_01.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 900px;" /></p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/kls_02.png" style="width: 1200px; height: 1600px;" /></p> <p class="rtecenter"><em>The class in action!

As stated on the BSA's site:</p> <p>"<em>KidsBuild! is a hands on, interactive learning experience for children, which is committed to creating learning opportunities for children through design and the built environment.</em>"</p> <p>This year was the 25th anniversary of the first KidsBuild event and as a celebration the adults got in on the fun and had their own night called KidsBuild: All Grown Up! Whereas at the KidsBuild event a city grid is laid out for kids to build upon is based on Boston’s layout, for the grown-up event the city was a city of the future where sea levels have risen and Boston has moved up on elevated platforms.  The challenge was how to build for a multi-level city and both reconsider traditional building types in that setting, as well as imagine new building types which might emerge.</p> <p>We had a great time designing and building at the event and if this post has piqued your interest, you can find more information on <strong>the free KidsBuild event happening April 8-9 </strong>on  <a href="https://kidsbuild.org/">BSA's Kid'sBuild!</a> Scroll down to read <a href="/node/422">Kimberly Barnett</a> and <a href="/node/419">Julieta Ohri</a>'s favorite part of the night and to see some fun pictures!</p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/img_2626.jpg" style="width: 1200px; height: 900px;" /></p> <p><a href="/node/419">Julieta:</a> <em>"I would say that my favorite part was seeing which materials people selected.

With new staff members and promotions, a mystery-filled office outing, awards, and great new clients, we can only hope that 2016 will be half as successful. Here’s a recap:</p> <p><strong>Awards:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Our <a href="/node/458">Community Nursery School</a> project was a co-winner for the <a href="/node/1584">Richard L Bechtel Design Award</a></li> <li>The MIT Fraternity house at <a href="/node/1458">532 Beacon Street</a> was awarded a 2015 <a href="/node/1639">Boston Preservation Alliance Award</a></li> <li>The Puddingstone Residence, <a href="/node/463">Fair Oaks Residence</a>, <a href="/node/459">Concord Estate</a> Pool House all received <a href="/node/1687">PRISM Awards</a> from <a href="http://www.prism-awards.com/2015-prism-winners.html" target="_blank">Builders and Remodelers Association of Greater Boston</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.bostonmagazine.com/property/" target="_blank">Boston Home</a> magazine awarded our firm with the title of <a href="http://www.bestofboston.com/winners/award-best-kitchen-architect/" target="_blank">Best Kitchen Architect</a> in their 2016 Best of Boston Awards</li> <li>The <a href="/node/442">Berkshire Farmhouse</a> received the <a href="/node/1632">Reader's Choice Award</a> from <a href="http://www.finehomebuilding.com/" target="_blank">Fine Home Building</a> magazine</li> </ul> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/awards.jpg" style="width: 959px; height: 430px;" /></p> <p><strong>New Staff Members:</strong></p> <p>Quite a few <a href="http://www.lda-architects.com/our-firm/directory" target="_blank">new faces</a> around the office this year! On the Interiors side, we welcomed Senior Interior Designer Erin Tracey, Interior Designer Dean Sawyer, Senior Architectural and Interior Designer Elizabeth Dunne, Interior Designer Jennifer Baker, and Junior Interior Designer Ashleigh Sanicola. New to the Architectural team is Architectural Designers Amanda O’Malley, Gillian Baresich, Hannah Osthoff, Molly Rovero and Tony Filardo. We also have had some really great interns that have made huge contributions to the firm – Olivia Hadley, Courtney Mussell, and Diego Rawson.</p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/new_staff.jpg" style="width: 961px; height: 373px;" /></p> <p><strong>Promotions:</strong></p> <p>Early on last year, we announced that our long time Director of Interior Design, Principal John Day, joined the ranks as a Partner at the firm. Equally as exciting, we’ve also made some additional promotions at the firm over the past year: Senior Associate Kyle Sheffield joined our team of Principals; Associates Dean Hofelich and Amanda Hanley have been promoted to Senior Associates, Architects Cheryl Hacker, Thomas Jonak were promoted to Associates; Architectural Designer Julieta Cordeiro was promoted to Associte; Senior Architectural and Interior Designer Elizabeth Dunne has been promoted to Associate, Senior Interior Designer Erin Tracey has been promoted to Associate, Interior Designer Dean Sawyer has also joined the ranks as an Associate; and Junior Interior Designer Jessie Hughes is now an Interior Designer.</p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/promotions.jpg" style="width: 961px; height: 714px;" /></p> <p><strong>Group Outings:</strong></p> <p>Every year LDa sponsors an office wide ‘Fun Day’ where we break off into teams and tackle a task at hand, all in the name of a little friendly competition. This year we headed over to Escape the Room. Teams are given an hour to solve puzzles that ultimately lead them to the key that will unlock the room they have been locked into. All three of our teams solved the puzzle in the knick of time and we had an absolute blast! </p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/escape_the_room.jpg" style="width: 960px; height: 174px;" /></p> <p>We had a lot of fun at other team activities as well - <a href="/node/1580">ice skating</a> at the Kendall Square ice rink, <a href="/node/1629">Walk for Hunger</a>, Architecture for Humanity 5k and <a href="/node/1637">kayaking</a> on the Charles during one of our summer Friday afternoons.</p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/events_0.jpg" style="width: 960px; height: 209px;" /></p> <p><strong>Website:</strong></p> <p>For almost a year, we worked with ICS Creative to design a new website and launched it in March of last year. The new website has been a great tool for our staff members and clients alike. With a keyword search feature and curated collections, users are able to navigate our website with ease while gaining a better understanding of our work experience. There is also a great space on the Explore LDa page where we can post updates, articles and events.</p> <p><strong>Competitions:</strong></p> <p>We went back to the drawing boards to defend our ‘<a href="/node/1631">What the Sketch</a>’ championship title, however we were defeated by Team Payette in the end. The competition was tough, but not discouraging. We hope to be back this year!</p> <p>If you have been following us on social media lately, you probably saw all of our posts about the CDRC Gingerbread Competition that we took part in this year. A group of 8 of us got together to create ‘<a href="/node/1705">Gumvermint Scenter</a>,’ a sugary recreation of City Hall Plaza. While we didn’t win the Golden Spatula this year, we were awarded some honorary mentions for “Most Creative Use of Materials” and “Best Activation of Government Center.”</p> <p>Last summer we returned to the gym floor as the LDassassins and participated in Commodore Builder's Annual Dodgeball Tournament. While it might not be our strongest suit, we held assumed our signature team pyramid for the team picture and had a blast throughout the tournament!</p> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/competitions.jpg" style="width: 960px; height: 206px;" /></p> <p><strong>Events:</strong></p> <p>LDa Principals <strong>Treff LaFleche</strong> and <strong>John Day</strong> joined Anne Sussman, author of <em>Cognitive Architecture</em>, for a discussion about "<a href="/node/1464">What Makes Good Architecture and Why</a>," moderated by Kyle Hoepner of New England Home. The discussion examined the physical design elements of a house and the psychological representation of the design and layout.</p> <p>Senior Associate and Director of Marketing, <strong>Amanda Hanley</strong>, was part of a panel that discussed "<a href="/node/1623">Finding Your Path in Architecture: Marketing and Business Development</a>." She was joined by Sarah McGillicuddy, Director of Marketing and Business Development at Acentech, Doug Larence, Marketing Director at Sasaki Associates, Lisa Hellmuth, Director of Marketing at Wilson Architects, Inc., and Karen Robichaud, Communications Editor at Payette to discuss successful marketing strategies in the A/E/C industry.</p> <p>LDa Principals <strong>Treffle LaFleche</strong> and <strong>Douglas Dick</strong>, along with Michael Kim, AIA, Principal of MK Architecture + Design, Steven Karan, PE, Principal at BER Engineering, and Naomi Cottrell, Design Director at Michelle Crowley Landscape Architecture presented a panel discussion at the annual AISNE Conference on the “<a href="/node/1630">House Doctor</a>” model of procurement for design services.</p> <p>Principal <strong>John Day </strong>was invited by ASID New England to participate in an "<a href="/node/1686">Ask Me Anything</a>" design career panel.

This discussion examined design elements that make for a good house, the bells and whistles consumers are interested in, and how to find a balance between the two.</p> <p>Onward and upward! Looking forward to what 2016 has in store.</p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-tags field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="/explore-lda/list/year-review">Year in Review</a></div><div class="field-item odd"><a href="/explore-lda/list/events">Events</a></div><div class="field-item even"><a href="/explore-lda/list/awards">Awards</a></div><div class="field-item odd"><a href="/explore-lda/list/staff">Staff</a></div></div></div> Tue, 05 Jan 2016 20:47:27 +0000 LDa 1706 at https://lda-architects.com PRISM Awards - LDa Takes Home Three! https://lda-architects.com/explore-lda/prism-awards-lda-takes-home-three <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>After submitting to the Builders and Remodelers Association of Greater Boston's <a href="http://www.prism-awards.com/" target="_blank">PRISM Awards</a> earlier this summer, we were invited to attend the awards gala this past Friday night.
