LOS ANGELES-TCA Architects has won two first place or Grand Awards from the National Association of Home Builders during the 2013 Pillars of the Industry Awards. The firm, which specializes in designing progressive multifamily and mixed-use urban residential developments, was recognized for its innovative designs that attract the millennial generation.

“We couldn't be more excited about these most recent award recognitions from the NAHB,” says Aram Chahbazian, TCA president. “These two awards and the reception the properties have received from the marketplace are confirmation that we have exceeded our highest expectations.”

TCA won the Best Garden Apartment Community for Domain San Diego, a modern, 379-unit apartment community developed by Wood Partners. The community has 12 floor plans, each with floor-to-ceiling windows and high-end finishes, like granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and large oval-shaped bathtubs. However, the expansive outdoor area is the community highlight, where an onsite recreation center features an over-sized pool with cabanas, barbeque area, waterfalls and trellises.
