The Architects Collective

About

The Architects Collective is a group of designers working to enrich lives through the practice of architecture. Based in Los Angeles, The Architects Collective (TAC) works with project owners to design multi-unit housing projects. We adroitly apply robust expertise and rigorous approaches to project analysis, design and construction. Through our collaborative approach, both the design process and design solutions are nuanced and multi-layered, striking a balance between exceptional design and high efficiency. Collaboration and Context TAC collaborates with real estate developers, public agencies, stakeholders, communities, consultants and contractors to design and construct places of dwelling. A clear expression of project context, vision and program, we aim for our projects to become places of meaning for residents. Drawing inspiration from the mild climate and diverse cultures of Los Angeles, we inventively design buildings that utilize appropriate building systems, express materials honestly and facilitate meaningful interactions. Function Everyone deserves a decent place to live. We apply decades of design and construction administration experience to testing and enhancing the qualities that compose highly-functional apartment buildings. Such a building not only serves merely as shelter; it is a place where people build their lives. It provides an engaging sequence of spaces, access to the outdoors, ample natural light and fresh air. Our projects generate a sense of safety, dignity, comfort and pride in residents.
