HEARTWOOD NOMINATED FOR ARCHDAILY’S BUILDING OF THE YEAR AWARD

We’re excited to announce that our Heartwood Residence has been nominated for ArchDaily's 2023 Building of the Year Award in the Houses Category.

The Building of the Year Award is a peer-based, crowdsourced architecture award showcasing projects chosen by the general public. Over a two-week period, readers filter nominated projects down to the 15 best works featured on ArchDaily in 2022.

The more nominations we receive from the general public from now through February 15th, the better our chances of being shortlisted for the final vote.

Help us get Heartwood to the finals — vote before 2/15!

Thanks for all of your support.

W/K IN REDFIN FEATURE: 2022 HOME DESIGN TRENDS

Redfin recently asked W/K co-founder Daniel Kaven, along with several other architecture and design experts, which home design trends we should expect to see in 2022.

DANIEL KAVEN:
“Living spaces designed around centralized and protected outdoor spaces have a great history throughout ancient civilizations and are particularly relevant in today’s times. These smaller and well-curated landscapes are accessible throughout the home, provide a visual connection to nature from the primary interior spaces, and create additional circulation that encourages pathways outside. In almost every home we design the program is dedicated to blurring the lines between architecture and nature and courtyards are perhaps the greatest design tool for realizing this virtue.”
