2025 Design Awards Feature
New Residence in Alys Beach by

This developer-owned semicustom house in Alys Beach demonstrates how traditional design and detailing can be utilized in residential projects that are neither fully custom nor
utilize disproportionately generous construction budgets. This design adhered to rather prescriptive requirements related to budget, architectural character, and materials. Making the house feel both original and traditional was accomplished in part by using repetitive architectural details around a more traditional sequence of spaces, including a centralized stair hall directly connecting the front with the back.

This courtyard house is set within a single urban block and faces a common green. Doors and windows are located at the front and rear facades only. The two-car garage requirement solution was atypical as they were separated and a rear courtyard and pool located between them, allowing for lower-massed volumes and more light from the south
and west.

The interiors are judiciously edited by incorporating a reduced number of trim profiles combined with a selective use of wood beams, transoms, and paneling. Porches and terraces on both floors maximize light, views, and cool breezes.

AIA Birmingham is joining organizations across Alabama’s A/E/C community for the Spring Young Professionals Mixer at High Dive HiFi Lounge! 🎶

High Dive HiFi Loung designed by ArchitectureWorks began in 2021 as a concept for an intimate cocktail lounge for audiophiles and evolved through years of design iteration into a full bar and restaurant with a world-class audio-visual setup.

Balancing a massive amount of technical infrastructure with an aesthetically refined and architecturally efficient space required close coordination with a broad team of consultants, resulting in a highly intentional environment where performance and design are tightly integrated.

Join us for an evening of conversation and connection inside one of Birmingham’s most distinctive new spaces! ⚡️
