We’re busier than ever here at ASD, so we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve added four new people to our team! Say hello to Danielle Nelson, Deepti Kasinadhuni, Ephraim Jaeger and Mikala Olson.

Colorado Springs is in the midst of a multifamily growth spurt, and ASD is proud to be contributing architecture and interior design to one of the city’s newest projects currently underway. Introducing the 322 Vermijo Apartments, a 154-unit multifamily community setting the standard for attainable living along the Front Range.

In June, ASD team member Jovina Amor helped guide an exclusive tour for the Denver Architecture Foundation around the renovated City Park Golf Course, including the City Park Golf Clubhouse, which ASD designed as part of the $45 million overhaul of the golf course.

Inspiration abounds at the Oceanside Springhill Suites in Oceanside, California, the latest hotel renovation by ASD. Located just one block from the Pacific Ocean, the hotel is serving up coastal vibes with updated finishes and fixtures that create an upscale and welcoming atmosphere for guests.

With summer on the horizon and projects in full swing, we’re busy here at ASD and are thrilled to announce a new addition to our team. Jason Sisneros joined ASD as an architectural intern, bringing his excitement for the profession and ambition to do big things.

ASD is growing! We’re seeking highly skilled architects and interior designers to contribute to our award-winning portfolio of design projects across Colorado’s Front Range and beyond. If you’re interested in joining a talented, dynamic team, submit your qualifications for consideration.

During this Earth Month, as architects and designers, we reflect on the importance of sustainability as it relates to the built environment. From studies showing that consumers are more likely to buy from businesses that are environmentally friendly, to the commitment we all share to reduce our carbon footprint, it’s clear that sustainable design is more than a trend. It’s a necessity.

This month, ASD safely gathered for a site walk at our Fitzgerald multifamily project to see construction progress. These site walks are a great way to keep our entire team involved in our projects and provide fantastic learning opportunities for our junior-level designers.

At ASD, we are proud to create beautiful spaces that truly contribute to the fabric of the community. The newly renovated Sheraton Hotel provides an anchor at the east end of the 16th Street Mall, bringing renewed energy and activation to the area.

ASD, along with project partners Mile High Development, Brinshore Development, Alliance Construction Solutions and the Urban Land Conservancy, celebrated the grand opening of Sheridan Station Apartments with a virtual ribbon-cutting ceremony on March 26, complete with remarks from Denver Mayor Michael Hancock.

March is Women’s History Month, specifically meant to lift up and celebrate women of all kinds, but at ASD, we take pride in our gender diversity year-round. Historically, architecture has been a male-dominated profession, but women are increasingly entering and making their mark on the field. ASD remains dedicated to paving the way for women to continue doing great things in design.

ASD recently celebrated the completion of the Mae on Cascade, a striking new multifamily project in the shadow of Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs. Named for Fannie Mae Duncan, the Mae takes inspiration from its namesake while also paying tribute to her social work. Fannie Mae was a jazz musician and owner of the famed Cotton Club in Colorado Springs in the 1950s. She welcomed anyone into her club that was age 21 or older, regardless of race – a rarity in that time.
