Hello, and welcome to the YRa+d Blog! We are really excited to finally launch this project. We look forward to sharing some new and interesting stuff with you as we embark on this adventure together.
Our goal with this blog is to give you a better sense of what we’re passionate, what inspires us, the kinds of projects we like, and what our design sensibilities are.
Below are some of the topics we hope to share in future posts. We hope you enjoy what’s to come, and as always, we welcome your ideas and feedback.
Design Inspiration: Architecture that inspires and excites us
We are passionate about providing modern architecture that is both affordable and responsive. Throughout this blog, we hope to showcase projects and designs that share many of the same qualities we strive for in our practice; whether it’s a project that responds to the constraints of the site or one that incorporates a cost-effective material in an innovative way. We hope to showcase projects that not only inspire us to do our best work but also ones that we think you will also connect with.
Details: An in-depth look at the finer elements of design & construction
You can never have enough juicy details! Whether its information on specific sustainable features, technical details, or interesting building components, we look forward to highlighting some of the interesting details of our work and the useful information we learn along the way.
Design for Social Impact: Stories with a powerful social agenda
A big component of our mission is to broaden the influence of good design. We believe good architecture and design should be accessible to all, and we love discovering people and projects that have a similar social agenda. Stay tuned as we share some of these inspiring humanitarian, pro-bono, and community outreach projects with you. We hope you find just as much delight in them as we do.
Architect Insider: News, updates, and behind the scenes look at our firm & the practice of architecture
We hope to pull back the curtain and show you a little about what we do as architects and how we can help you. We plan to share information on what it’s like working with us, how we work, and why we work the way we do. We also look forward to sharing some of the projects we’re working on, announcements, and relevant and exciting news around the office as they occur.
