The Village Green
| Baldwin Hills, CA
Multi-Unit Housing
As a National Historic Landmark, The Village Green in Baldwin Hills, California
has maintained its original aesthetics since its construction in 1942 through careful
restoration projects. The 85 two-story buildings in the community reflect strong
characteristics of the mid-century and craftsman style movements in architecture
and design. Clean, horizontal lines define eaves and balconies, while low hipped
and gable roofs create simple and uncomplicated domestic architecture.
As Owner’s Representative to the Homeowners Association we assisted in the process
of renovation associated to two buildings. We coordinated preliminary design and
construction schedules and cost, and identified pitfalls through discussions with
owners and consultants. As part of the project team, we work closely with residents
and the HOA to ensure work performed adheres to the nature of the historic site.
