Iida James Woolum Faia’s Location Los Angeles, California, United States
Iida James Woolum Faia’s Expertise Operating with the conviction that good design must have value beyond the immediate visual appeal of form and materiality, I am inspired by a diverse range of influences - from classic modernism and mid-century design, to pop culture, iconic artists and artworks, my signature black ‘fits and Prada high-tops, to a beautifully crafted cocktail. With nearly 30 years of experience (!!!!) designing education, healthcare, research, and corporate environments, my work is driven by a series of simple guiding principles including listening to learn, being adaptable and nimble, innovative and entrepreneurial. Constantly asking myself (and others) "what's the Big Idea?", I approach every project hand-in-hand with my clients and collaborators. Through rigorous investigation I strive to achieve unique, highly personal and intentional solutions. Notable corporate projects include the Spruce Goose adaptive reuse and interior design for Google in Playa Vista and the expansion of Google’s presence in Los Angeles with a new, landmark adaptive re-use project within a defunct shopping mall. In New York, projects include client and staff engagement spaces for Viacom, a new Corporate Center and global headquarters for Citigroup in lower Manhattan, and the new corporate headquarters for iconic American brand Publishers Clearing House in suburban Long Island; in the DC metro area, the new mid-Atlantic district office for long-time collaborators Hensel Phelps Construction; in Los Angles, an innovative workplace strategy and redesign for the team leading facilities, design, and construction projects at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Projects in science and research have included medical and academic research buildings for the University of Arizona, University of Texas, Cornell, The Ohio State University, and the University of California. Projects in health & wellness have included new children's hospitals in Los Angeles and Dallas, an innovative medical behavioral health unit at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and a progressive primary care and new cancer infusion center, both for Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles. A new women’s and children’s tower is currently in construction for UHS in San Antonio, TX, and a state-of-the-art outpatient cancer center for City of Hope has kept me busy for the last few years. Projects in education and culture have included academic libraries for the Orchard School in San Jose, CA as well as the Advanced Media Studio and Academic Technology Center for NYU in New York.
