Regional architects continue to make a name for themselves nationally. Nevada City architects McCamant & Durrett won a Silver Award for Best of of Senior Living from the National Association of Home Builders on Tuesday.

The firm won the award for its design of Silver Sage Village, a senior co-housing project in the Colorado city.

This Nevada County firm has been at this kind of work for awhile.
The news release notes:
"McCamant & Durrett Architects have actively promoted cohousing concepts since the 1980's, introducing cohousing to the United States with their book Cohousing: A Contemporary Approach to Housing Ourselves (Ten Speed Press, 1988, 1994). Durrett applied cohousing design to senior communities with his 2005 book Senior Cohousing, A Community Approach to Independent Living - the Handbook."
