FreeAn inspiring lecture presented by Phoenix-based architect Marlene Imirzian in collaboration with Design Within Reach Scottsdale Studio.
Topic of the Night: Phoenix Desert Architecture

Each project is designed to optimize its site and community and provide high sustainability in water collection and use, building systems, and minimize the use of energy while providing highly effective and beautiful spaces.
About Marlene Imirzian & Associates Architects:
MIAA is known for its design excellence, project performance, and as a leader in integration of sustainable design practices. We create finely considered and inventive buildings that contribute to the regeneration of place. We engage the owner, users, consultants, contractor, and other stakeholders as appropriate to develop comprehensive building solutions that optimize facilities for the project uses.
Key to our approach is that each project must address the larger context beyond its physical boundaries in terms of user flow, future uses, flexibility of use, life cycle cost, ease of maintenance and sustainability.
We are experienced in a wide range of project types including public, private, higher education, health care, commercial, historic preservation, and residential projects.
