We are honored for the opportunity to have worked with the New Home Co. on the Surf Shack for the Project Playhouse Village. There are just a few days left to check it out at the Irvine Spectrum!

We are proud to have partnered with Shea Homes on one of this year’s Project Playhouses – Charmhouse. Please support HomeAid Orange County by taking a tour of the Project Playhouse Village at the Irvine Spectrum until October 5th!

It was amazing to witness “Kokua” in action on Maui – people helping each other without any expectation of personal gain. See what can be accomplished in one year to house residents who lost their homes when that spirit guides the process. https://lnkd.in/gUxe8ZJA

From Director of Design Dave Kosco: While on vacation in Maui last week, I had the honor and privilege of representing HomeAid America and Bassenian Lagoni at the ceremonial blessing and key handoff to the first 35 residents of Ka Laʻi Ola (Place of Peaceful Recovery). We’ve been working on this community with HomeAid Hawaii and the State, including Governor Josh Green. It was a very heartfelt and emotional ceremony. Families, whose lives have been on hold for the past 12 months since the devastating fires, received the keys to their new home. To be a part of the team has been an honor and a blessing. I want to personally thank team members Mark Kiner, Garrett Wilkinson and Milo Olea for all their efforts. It was certainly a lot of heavy lifting, and it hasn’t gone unrecognized, praised by both the Governor and the HomeAid National Board. This short video clip features Governor Josh Green and HomeAid Hawaii Executive Director Kimo Carvalho during the move-in ceremony.

Sometimes numbers are really worth celebrating. This is one of those times!

Turns out it is really really hard for an architect to have just one "favorite" house. So what do you do? Follow Dave Kosco and share your other favorite house and how it influences home design today.

Director of Design Dave Kosco shares the story of his favorite house. After reading, share in the comments your favorite house. Great chance for us to learn from each other. https://lnkd.in/gWttFXEt

That we have been able to play a part in helping HomeAid achieve its mission to end homelessness is an absolute privilege. To those of you already involved, we love working with you. To those new to this important work, please think about joining in this amazing effort, you won't regret it.
