Almost 1,000 students attend the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) Valley Region Elementary School #6 in Panorama City, with its naturally lit classrooms, fresh-air ventilation and outdoor teaching spaces, designed by Irvine-based MVE Institutional (MVEI). The school houses 38 teaching stations in a 70,360-square-foot facility on an infill parcel of only 4.31 acres in this city located northwest of downtown Los Angeles in the San Fernando Valley.
MVEI’s design, certified by the Collaborative for High Performance Schools (CHPS), addresses the urban challenges of a large student population, a compact site and a varied neighborhood context.

Nearly 2,000 housing units are rising out of the ground at Luxetown, a spectacular new mixed-use residential development designed by MVE International, an affiliate of MVE & Partners, the Irvine, CA-based architecture and planning firm.
“We designed Luxetown to meet both intensive zoning regulations and market demand,” said Ernesto Vasquez, AIA, founding partner and vice president at MVE International. “The result is surprisingly progressive. For example, each residential unit has light, windows and ventilation on three sides, and there are many community amenities as well. Luxetown could sell any place in the world.”

Honolulu-based MVE Pacific is a full-service architecture, interiors and planning firm that has created significant housing, commercial, resort, retail, mixed-use and hospitality projects in Hawaii for the past 20+ years.
