Jeff Larsen Larsen: “Part of the uniqueness of this project is the trend of really being authentic to your location.”

HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA—One thing that makes the Residences at Pacific City so unique is its amenities building and use of open space, which serve to draw the community in and allow them to embrace the iconic property, MVE Architects’ principal Jeff Larsen and associate partner Pieter Berger tell GlobeSt.com. Now mid-way through construction on the project, MVE is unveiling the amenities building, which includes storage lockers inspired by the World Surfing League tour lockers for easy access to surfboards, paddleboards and other beach equipment; onsite meeting rooms and an Internet-enabled coffee shop; and a fitness center with yoga studio and sports simulators. We spoke exclusively with Larsen and Berger about the inspiration behind the Residences at Pacific City and how multifamily design is changing.
