Toronto-based multidisciplinary firm DesignAgency has opened a West Coast office in Los Angeles, led by Alexandra Bruemmer as West Coast director. Formerly of Perkins Eastman in Washington, DC, Bruemmer will help to expand DesignAgency’s presence in the U.S. market along with developing new business within the region.
“In the almost 20 years that we’ve been growing this company, the U.S., and West Coast market in particular, have always been exciting ones for us. It was only a matter of time before it made business sense for us to have a real presence there in order to better serve our clients and form new relationships,” says DesignAgency partner Anwar Mekhayech. “We feel there is a real energy and creative pulse growing in LA and know that our collaborative spirit with both clients and creatives will thrive here. We are super excited to welcome Alexandra to our team and to embark on this new adventure.”
In the U.S. market DesignAgency is developing a new hotel brand and concept, Hyde Hotels, Resorts & Residences for Sam Nazarian and is working with sbe on various projects including its Umami brand.
