KMA Architecture

Happy New Year to you and yours! All of us at KMA look forward to working with you next year! May your celebrations be safe but a little sandy... :)

2020 has reminded us how unpredictable life can be and that we should appreciate the small things in every day. During this holiday season, our thoughts turn gratefully to our clients and those who have made our success possible. We wish you happy holidays and a Happy New Year in 2021. May you have joyful, peaceful and healthy holidays!

Thunderbirds! The red, white and blue jets will be in San Diego this Friday, May 15. They are scheduled to start the fly over of San Diego area hospitals at 12:00 PM, flying from the south to the north, to conclude at approximately 12:16 PM. The nine area hospitals to be visited (presumed order): Sharp in Chula Vista, Scripps Mercy in Chula Vista, Sharp Grossmont, Sharp Memorial, UCSD Medical Center, VA Medical Center La Jolla, Scripps Green, Scripps Encinitas and Palomar Medical Center They will be low and moving fast, so get your spot and enjoy. And should you be in the Temecula area, don’t worry. Look up and you should see the (8) F-16s doing Air-to-Air Refueling.

Quarantine Blues/Purples and other Flora to make you smile... I took these photos today on a morning walk. I already knew life was blooming (thanks to my allergies) but here is the glorious colorious proof! This makes allergies ok.

In uncertain times we turn to things that are constant. We are so thankful for those constants. Here is one of them for many of us... #Alwaysscenic #sandiego #lostinlandscapes

It is wonderful how thoughtful and helpful humans can be. Please help protect our seniors from exposure to COVID-19.

Good Morning San Diego!! Sometimes when I am late to work I get treated to a gorgeous sunrise over Mission Bay. A morning perk without the caffeine! Have a great day and let the light fill your day! #gonnabeagoodday #thedriveintowork #blessed

Where will you be at 8:20 tonight?? Have fun celebrating MLK Day tonight in a fun way, totally unique to the year 2020. At twenty seconds past 8:20 PM tonight, it will be 1/20/2020, 20:20:20!!

Oh well, Have fun anyway!! #1202020202020 [Thanks Sangeeta for pointing this out to us today! Mind blown!]

Happy New Year!! Thank you for a wonderful 2019. We look forward to an even better 2020! (is that even possible?!)

As we get ready for brand new year, we'd like to reflect on those people and projects that made 2019 for us. Here is some work, some snapshot of team members and collaborators... Thank you for a great 2020!

Thank you for a wonderful year. Our office will be closed from Dec. 25th through January 1st. We hope to hear from you in 2020!

I think we have found the solution for getting work done during the holidays??? Ok, maybe not... :)

May this be a season of JOY and HOPE for you and yours. Happy Holidays from your friends at KMA!

Thank you to USACE, Caddell Construction and Pro2Serve for sharing this progress photo of the construction site for our design for the new NNSA Office. The metal panels are going up! We thought we'd share the photo and jazz it up for the holidays. ;) Can you find Rudolph? Design Team: KMA Architecture ID Studios Inc.

This video is another shining example of the great collaborative design our teams can achieve. This is a proposed project design that KMA and partners have imagined and engineered. We didn't win the project but we had a great time designing a facility that would have been awesome.
