About the Author:

Scott Hughes, AIA, is the founding principal of hughesumbanhowar (huum). Hughes is recognized for his transformative vision that blends form with program and utilizes the unique qualities of each project to create a practical yet concept-driven solution. He was the first designer certified under the Foreign Missions Act of 1982, soon after opening his own firm in 1981. Hughes has practiced as a principal in several architectural firms, accumulating more than 30 years of experience. During those years he has been recognized more than 13 times for design excellence by his peers in the American Institute of Architects. In 1995, Scott took a two-year educational sabbatical in Los Angeles that culminated in a Masters of Architecture degree from the Southern California Institute of Architecture/SCI-ARC. Spending time on both coasts, in Los Angeles, Hughes is a Trustee of The Southern California Institute of Architecture/SCI-ARC and serves as the Chair of the Trustee's Governance Committee. On the east coast, Hughes serves as a member of the Land Planning Agency for the town of Jupiter Island, Florida.

John Umbanhowar, AIA, LEED AP, is the Los Angeles-based principal of hughesumbanhowar. His design process initiates in compelling ideas and his solutions are derived through cross-field investigations in materials, technology, the natural and social sciences. Umbanhowar oversees huum work and projects from beginning to end, directing the tempo of the offices and acting as its central hub for communications. His hands-on involvement runs from schematic design through completion of construction and post-occupancy. Umbanhowar has been integral to several historically-significant Los Angeles building projects during his career including renovation of the Troxell House by Richard Neutra and EastWest Recording Studios in collaboration with Philippe Starck. He has been the recipient of multiple AIA awards and furniture design awards. Umbanhowar speaks frequently on architecture and design in Los Angeles and is actively involved in the Los Angeles art community. Umbanhowar received his Master of Architecture degree from the Southern California Institute of Architecture/SCI-Arc.
