Architectural Digest
Featured residential work in the Tahoe region.
Awards & press
The work has been getting noticed for two and a half decades.
A short record of where the work has been featured and recognized. The bigger validation lives in the homes themselves and in what clients say after they move in.
Some of these features and awards predate designSense Architecture — they're work Brendan led during his time at Ryan Group Architects before going solo in 2020. The credit there belongs to Ryan Group; Brendan's role is noted on each project where he was the lead architect.
