Featured in Los Angeles Times Magazine back in 2010, Wolfe Residence "appreciates the beauty in the funky." Designed for an African art dealer/collector and his family, this pitched-roof Cor-ten steel exterior evokes African vernacular buildings. Oversized sliding glass doors open the steel structure on two sides, transforming the house into an airy pavilion. Photos by: Grant Mudford

We are honored to be part of?Forbes Top 200 Residential Architectural Firms in the USA. Featured Project: Bayview Residence "With more than 200 awards to their credit since 1979, Culver City–based Ehrlich Yanai Rhee Chaney Architects can lay claim to a remarkable array of contemporary residential commissions. Despite building sites that are frequently challenging, their houses are exquisitely composed and sublimely scaled to respect their neighbors, with stacked volumes that rotate and intersect with stunning virtuosity. Exterior materials play off each other like instruments in an orchestra—light against dark, rough against smooth—as in this Hermosa Beach house, their Featured Project, whose white cement plaster walls are paired with painted metal panels and shou sugi ban charred wood. Cascading down its steep site, which is bounded by streets on both ends, the house still manages to enjoy stunning vistas, intimate spaces and—most impressively—flat yard space for the owners and their children."

What is a Campus Catalyst? A Campus Catalyst is EYRC's community-centric approach to campus design. It's a philosophy that has evolved over the years, shaped by working with the thoughtful leadership of many campuses. Every facet of a true Campus Catalyst is focused on cultivating shared experiences that foster student success. Ehrlich Yanai Rhee Chaney Architects (EYRC) #architecture #architect #CampusCatalyst

Respectful to a neighborhood mainly consisting of Spanish-styled homes from the 1940s, Crescent Drive Residence was designed with comparable scale and materials, but with a modern twist. While the front of the house is designed with privacy in mind, once past the front gate, the home expands its living space into the outdoors seamlessly, taking full advantage of the California climate.

Part of the EYRC approach to Community-Centric Campus Design is inspired by the work of marine conservationists. When restoring a coral reef, one will often place artificial structures - scaffolds if you will - that are purposely designed for the growing coral to bind onto.??This is very similar to our approach to campus projects as we strive to create these unique spaces that encourage highly memorable shared experiences between students.?These interpersonal bonds help foster community and create a feeling of being at home within the university. #architecture #campus #campusdesign Ehrlich Yanai Rhee Chaney Architects (EYRC) UC San Diego HKS, Inc.

Imagine a campus where every building, every space, every corner is designed to foster not just learning, but community, growth, and connection. The Theatre District Living and Learning Neighborhood at UC San Diego is one of the most ambitious projects we've undertaken at EYRC Architects. Together with our partner architects at HKS, we created a mixed use student housing complex with 2,000 beds, built to foster Student Success. Every aspect of the project - from the vibrant social spaces to areas for repose and reflection – all crafted with a purpose: to support well-being, encourage connection, and celebrate the diverse needs of students. The Theatre District is more than just a place to live; it’s a place where students can thrive. #architecture #design #campusdesign Ehrlich Yanai Rhee Chaney Architects (EYRC) UC San Diego HKS, Inc.

Empathy starts with listening to People and Place.?In this place,?we must listen to the wind. To naturally ventilate the 2,000 beds of housing, the westerly wind shaped the buildings - and a 6 degree outward rotation of the windows enhanced airflow … and made a lot of freshman and sophomores very happy with ocean views. #architecture #design #campusdesign Ehrlich Yanai Rhee Chaney Architects (EYRC) HKS, Inc.

Congratulations to all that helped bring the Theatre District Living and Learning Neighborhood at UC San Diego to its full realization! Welcome to Eighth College!
