What an incredible day we had yesterday at the NAIOP Washington State Chapter's summer golf event! 🏌️♂️⛳ We're beyond proud to have been sponsors for such an amazing event. It was filled with laughter, great conversations, and beautiful weather—perfect for hitting the greens!

Happy Fourth of July from MZA Architecture! As we celebrate the birth of our nation, let's take a moment to appreciate the beauty of the structures around us and the freedom that allows us to build and dream. Enjoy the fireworks tonight!

🎉Congratulations to our 5V team for receiving the Gold Nugget Award of Merit! 🍾

The OneX Project in Seattle's University District just secured its Master Use Permit! Standing at approximately 265 feet, the two towers offer around 500,000 square feet above grade, with roughly 600 units, including apartments and student housing. The central plaza serves as the heart of the development, inviting residents and visitors to gather and connect. Transparent lobbies and porous retail storefronts enhance the streetscape, creating an inviting atmosphere. Inspired by the U District's energy, the design aims to blend seamlessly with the neighborhood while elevating the district's skyline. Proud to be part of the MZA design team, and grateful to Onelin Capital and all involved for their support!

City of Bellevue, Washington: The City Council Monday unanimously adopted amendments to the city’s land use code that provide a longer approval period for design review projects and offer opportunities for additional approval extensions. The changes allow up to two two-year extensions for design review approvals and give developers more flexibility. https://lnkd.in/ghim_8-6

At MZA Architecture, we love a challenge! So, when it came to fitting a plaza on street level without sacrificing Mari Tower's footprint on this tight urban site, we got creative. Our solution? A covered all-weather plaza that redefines community space—it's bright, protected, multi-functional, and active year-round. #MariBellevue #mari #MZA #bellevue #Downtownbellevue
