I am pleased to announce that one of our latest projects, Kaplan Residence, received the 2015 AIA Nevada Excellence in Design Award. The prestigious award was presented during the AIA Nevada holiday gala in December 2015.

The owner's appreciation for good architecture and engineering made it truly worthwhile to work on this outstanding project. It took an immense patience and collaboration between all team members to bring the owner's vision from concept to life.

Our engineers provided proactive and highly responsive design and construction support services to bring this award-winning project to a successful conclusion. We are grateful and proud to be a part of the team that brought this architectural masterpiece to the Las Vegas Valley. Congratulations team!

Kaplan Residence in Las Vegas - Winner of 2015 AIA Nevada Excellence in Design Award


This elegant house was made possible by a unique structural system, designed by our engineers at THOMAD Engineering.

The two-story structure features shallow depth floor and roof framing structural steel members to create the minimalist architecture style. Full height floor-to-ceiling windows, a handsome deck and cantilevered balconies provide unobstructed views of the surrounding serene desert landscape. The white color and smooth finish of the exterior serve as a canvas for natural light to cast different colors and draw various formations day and night. The interior living spaces are adorned with exposed steel pipe columns that form the architectural as well as structural centerpiece. To learn more, click here.
