The work of Brian Phillips, AIA, a Gibbs College of Architecture alumnus and principal architect of architecture firm ISA, was recently featured on the cover of Architect Magazine. The featured project, the “XS House,” is a 5,000-square-foot, seven-unit building with a very narrow footprint located in Philadelphia. The XS House was named a winner of the 2019 Residential Architect Design Award for Multifamily Housing.
Congratulations to Phillips and the team at ISA!
