COLE Architects AZ

Another award for this great project! The Ketchum Fire Station received one of the highest recognitions in the “Firehouse” Station Design Awards, standing with advanced new fire stations from across the US. We are thrilled with the national recognition of this prestigious design award. “Firehouse” shared with us that this year had some of the toughest judges, but Ketchum was clearly their Silver choice.

Congratulations to the design team and all that made this station an amazing and beautiful asset for the Ketchum community!

COLE Architects is pleased to welcome Technical Designer Khalid Mohamedelhassan to our Gilbert office! Receiving a Master’s in Architecture degree from the University of Arizona, a Master of Business Administration degree specializing in Project Management from DeVry University in Texas, and a Bachelor of Science in Architecture degree from the University of Khartoum in Sudan, Khalid brings over 20 years of diverse knowledge and experience to our team.

His involvement in the architectural industry also included serving as a teaching assistant for the College of Architecture at U of A as well as in Sudan. It’s through these collaborative environments that Khalid finds passion for his career: “I have always enjoyed being part of a team and have worked on many large projects, where I eventually discovered that the more one shares with others, the more one gains in knowledge.”

Welcome, Khalid!
