## [Retail Project Update](https://www.modative.com/modern-architects-blog/bid/10404/Retail-Project-Update)

I thought it was about time to share some images of the retail project we have been working on in collaboration with Brent Thompson of [ Global Design Workshop LLP](http://www.globaldesignworkshop.com/).This big project has an equally large design team and we have been lucky to work with some very talented firms in the process so far. The project is now called "Celebration" and without giving too much away, is located somewhere in Los Angeles County.
