E. Main Street
Design Approach
E. Main St. was approached as a mixed-use commercial environment organized through clarity, flexibility, and material restraint. The project sought to unify office and retail uses within a disciplined spatial framework, balancing circulation, daylight, and terrace space with a quieter architectural presence. The design emphasized cohesion across different modes of occupation, creating a proposal that felt contemporary, measured, and adaptable.

Project Overview
Located in Alhambra, E. Main St. was developed as an 8,000 SF mixed-use commercial proposal combining two street-level retail spaces with five offices above. Basement parking, landscaped terraces, and a clear circulation core were integrated to support both visibility and everyday function within a compact urban site. The project progressed through design and permitting, though it was ultimately not completed due to client budget.
