3north Honored by AIA Richmond

The evening of Tuesday, April 10th turned out to be a night of celebration for 3north, as the firm received two honors at the newly-restored Hippodrome Theater in Richmond’s historic Jackson Ward.

As architects, design professionals and other guests gathered to celebrate the region’s best and brightest, 3north Principal Sandy Bond’s design for Try-Me, a private gallery in Richmond’s Fan District (pictured above), received one of three honor awards. The jury commented on the clean, Zen-like design evoking the feel of a modernistic version of a Japanese tea room in the converted early 20th century garage.

The evening culminated with Erin Webb, Associate AIA, receiving the first-ever Richard L. Ford, Jr. FAIA Award, considered the Chapter’s highest award presented to a young architect, associate member, or intern. The award is made by the Chapter Board, based on nominations by the Honors Committee, to a young person who has demonstrated vision, passion, and excellence to the design community. Erin (pictured below with the 3north team) is a talented designer who has been active with the AIA, Drinking Architecture and the YAiF.

Congratulations, 3north!

We’re happy to announce that Eric Schurter is joining the Mobelux team as a Designer! A film geek and Apple fanboy, when Eric isn’t pushing pixels in Photoshop, he’s probably watching a Kubrick film or reading on his iPad.

Welcome to the team!

Check out the newly-relaunched Greater Richmond Grid magazine with Mobelux’s Johnny Hugel (left) gracing the cover. Hugel is a co-founder of Feast RVA along with Josh Epperson. Feast:

identifies and rewards the variety of creative projects coming out of RVA. Through recurring public dinners, Feast RVA democratically funds new and emerging art makers.

Look for the March/April 2012 issue around town.

Directed a project for Mobelux today that I’ve been planning since I came on board, and it went off without many a hitch. So stoked to get it out there, but regardless, thanks to our lovely hosts, The Corrugated Box Building Joey, Jeff, BigSecret, Matt, Josh and last but not least, Franklin. Photo via Jeff.

Corrugated Box served as the setting for a Mobelux promotional video. Franklin was apparently happy to assist in the production. Photo credits: Jeff Rock

3north: In the News: Spotlight on Jay Hugo:

3north Founder and Managing Principal Jay Hugo was featured recently in the Richmond Times-Dispatch. The article featured a brief bio on Jay’s career as a licensed architect, landscape architect and interior designer. In addition, Jay responded to questions such as “best and worst business decisions,” “mistake he learned the most from,” and the “biggest challenge/opportunity in the near future” to which Jay responded:

Like many professions, architecture is trending toward overspecialization. The marketplace is losing good generalists and problem-solvers. That creates a great space for our practice and we are determined to stay broad in our approach.
