Principal, Grant Kirkpatrick, has been welcomed as the newest member of The HeArt Project's Board of Directors. The HeArt Project is a Los Angeles-based organization whose mission is to combat the epidemic high school dropout crisis with a long-term, sequential arts program offering a pursuable life path that inspires students to stay in school, evolve as unique individuals and flourish as creative adults. When asked about the appointment, Grant had this to say:

KAA has been working with and supporting The Heart Project in Los Angeles for more than 10 years. I am honored to have been asked to join the Board of Directors as I share the deep-rooted desire to offer arts programs and education to Southern California youth who are not typically exposed to opportunities in these fields. I am excited to contribute my energy and creative directives on a higher level with The HeArt Project so that we can dial-up the effectiveness of “inspiring students to stay in school, evolve as unique individuals, and flourish as creative adults”.

Our Thinking

The Mediterranean in Southern California

Architecture inspired by great traditions of the Mediterranean region has a long, rich history in California. The fruits of this long lineage flavor the character of our cities and dot the surrounding hillsides. At KAA Design, we have often found the Mediterranean architectures to be a perfect fit for our clients wishing to build here.
