ONE SANTA FE IN
ARCHITECTURAL RECORD
MMA’S latest project One Santa Fe is featured in the October issue of Architectural Record. Writer Russell Fortmeyer notes ” In recent projects like the nearby Star Apartments and now One Santa Fe, Michael Maltzan Architecture has shown it can create innovative solutions for starkly different populations—the formerly homeless at Star and mostly upscale professionals here—finding the sweet spot for extracting a vital architecture from the city’s otherwise humdrum multifamily residential design palette. Well beyond the tired clichés of indoor-outdoor living and insipid midcentury-modern riffs, Maltzan’s work explores the complicated history of L.A. while setting high expectations for a future in progress.” Fortmeyer’s review is paired with an extensive gallery of images by acclaimed photographer Iwan Baan.
