We're honored to have 1450 Owens recognized in the AIA California 2025 Design Awards. Thank you AIA CA and this year's awards jury!

A few of the jury comments excerpted are here:
"Architecture is ultimately about resolution and about how one sees through details to the conclusion of construction; this building really does that with great merit. It is clearly a building that is essentially of the freeway. But it’s also a building of wonderful sculptural qualities at a large urban scale. A tough but handsome, well resolved, transparent, welcoming addition to this part of San Francisco."
