(November 12, 2012 – CARLSBAD, CA) – Architect, Builder, and Developer Jonathan Segal, FAIA and his team built a multifamily award-winning project called “The Charmer” in San Diego’s Little Italy neighborhood. The Charmer is a pedestrian-friendly, modern designed courtyard apartment complex with 19 residential units and five thousand square feet of commercial space. All parking is at grade, and while some spaces are covered to comply with local requirements, most residents park in the landscaped courtyard which was paved with Soil Retention’s Drivable Grass®. “The Charmer” won the 2012 residential architect Project of the Year!
The Sanford Consortium for Regenerative Medicine is a consortium of five world leaders in life sciences research: the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, The Scripps Research Institute, the Sanford | Burnham Medical Research Institute, the University of California, San Diego, and the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology. Designed by Fentress Architects and Associate Architect firm Davis Davis Architects. The Sanford Consortium for Regenerative Medicine located in La Jolla, CA took home the Gold Nugget Grand Award for architecture and design for office or professional building. The Gold Nugget program is considered the oldest and one of the most prestigious design competitions in the building industry. Drivable Grass® was placed in the courtyard at Sanford Consortium for Regenerative Medicine.
