About

My name is Nicolai Elghanayan and I'm from Laguna Beach, CA.  I graduated from University of Southern California with an accredited Bachelor Degree. 

I grew up with a dad who had a vertically integrated Design/Development/Construction business.  I was able to get hands on experience of what the professional mind of an architect consists of.  At a young age I was confident that I would pursue an architectural degree and strove to absorb everything I could through high school and college years in order to do so.  I am as equally comfortable working at my desk as I am in the field and value the interaction of these two realms.  I have worked for a few local firms in Orange County such as Horst Architects in Laguna Beach.  I also helped a handful of professors creating physical models, drawings, and InDesign layouts.
