What started in 2019 as a small regional gathering has grown into a dynamic celebration of architecture, innovation, and community. Today, the Aspire Conference attracts participants from Tennessee, Kentucky, and beyond, extending its reach far past the Carolinas and Georgia. Aspire is no longer just a conference; it has become a catalyst for connection. Add-on events such as river clean-ups and social mixers create new opportunities for industry professionals to engage, collaborate, and build lasting relationships.

Architecture, at its essence, frames human experience. It’s a discipline that gives us the privilege—and responsibility—of shaping how people navigate their world. By embracing multisensory design, we can create environments that nourish the human experience, leveraging psychology to enhance functionality and elevate performance. When spaces engage touch, scent, acoustics, and even thermal perception, they become more than structures—they become experiences. The future of architecture isn’t just seen. It’s felt, heard, and lived. LS3P's Research + Innovation Intern Joseph Brooks explores multisensory design in our latest research piece, Spatial Sensation: https://lnkd.in/e4BcYEUa #ls3p #research #design #architecture

The Society at Laurens is a four- and five-story steel and concrete mixed-use development that redefines urban living. Spanning 225,000 GSF, this thoughtfully designed community features 148 residences—from sleek efficiencies to elegant penthouses—alongside 185 enclosed parking spaces, pop-up retail, and curated amenities. Rooted in the historic fabric of the neighborhood, the building’s massing and detailing pay homage to the traditions of the Carolina Lowcountry while embracing a vibrant, contemporary aesthetic. This is more than a place to live—it’s a destination designed for connection, comfort, and culture. 📸: Jordan Powers #ls3p #architecture #interiors #planning #newphotography

LS3P ASSOCIATES LTD. reposted this
LS3P ASSOCIATES LTD. is proud to be part of another transformational project on upper King Street. This was a great first step to get this exciting project kicked off.
This was a challenging one. Part of our approvals for Peninsula of Charleston requires us to incorporate a portion of a ‘20s era building into our overall design. To do that we needed to relocate that portion for a time before setting it in its final location. Thanks to Trident Construction and LS3P ASSOCIATES LTD. for the great work figuring out the ‘how’ behind this!
