That's a wrap on our 4th year of the LGA Partners Ladies Golf Academy, putting our lessons to the test at Cranberry Highlands Golf Course, 17 participants came out to play in the 9-hole scramble.  A special shoutout to those who won skill prizes, Kelsey Kanspedos, R.L.A. from Regional Industrial Development Corporation for Longest Putt on Hole #1, Kinsey Becker, PE from Oxford Development Company for Closest to the Pin on Hole #3, and Taylor Hardy from Hardy World, LLC for Closest to the Pin on hole #6. While this concludes the Ladies Golf Academy for 2024, there is still plenty of golf to be played this year. A special thank you to Mark Witouski, CPSM for another successful season! Can't wait to host you all in 2025! #LGALadiesGolfAcademy #Networking

Using REVIT, Housing Studio member, Roger Druschel, crafted stunning designs and intricate details for a private residence, both in 2D and 3D.

Vino Fiesta, a wine and taphouse bar at Nashville International Airport - BNA, draws inspiration from the vibrant atmosphere of Mexican bodegas and tequila bars. LGA collaborated with the client to create a unique branding and design concept, focusing on a dark and moody ambiance that invites travelers in. Overhead ceiling elements resemble structural wooden beams, fabricated from a faux wood-look suspension system, while the walls feature faux brick adorned with heat-applied murals, adding a distinctive artistic touch. The bar follows the curvature of the LOD, maximizing seating with approximately 24 seats. Heavy wood tones, intricate light fixtures, and vertical LVT resembling old wood enhance the intimate space. Next time you are flying through Nashville, stop by for a drink on your layover! Architecture, Branding + Design: LGA Partners + Fabian C. Client: SLA WORLDWIDE + OHM Concession Group, LLC

After an insightful call with a structural engineer some of our Aviation Studio gathered around the whiteboard for an impromptu learning session.

Our Retail Studio participated in a super fun design charrette during their monthly studio meeting, thanks to their liaison Amanda Barner from the Design Committee!  They were given a blank canvas to pick a location to develop a design concept and what their space would sell within 20 minutes. This challenge was a fun way to break away from usual routines and dive back into creative schematic design. #LGAretail #retaildesign #designcharrette #creativethinking

The Housing Studio team recently ventured out of the office to explore New Urbanism in Pittsburgh. This design movement focuses on creating environmentally friendly, walkable neighborhoods and tackling issues from post-WWII urban sprawl. Visiting developments like the Summerset at Frick Park and Heritage Highlands to see how these principles—like pedestrian-friendly design, accessible public transit, green spaces, and local architecture—can shape both market-rate and affordable housing.
