HMC Architects’ Lillian Cao and Melissa Jimenez were selected for the METROPOLIS Arch30 San Francisco cohort held this fall, which recognized the next generation of leaders in architecture, drawing top talent under age 30 from the most influential firms.

The cohort is a testament to the transformative and exciting times that young architects are experiencing and serves as a showcase for emerging professionals pushing the boundaries of creativity and innovation in the architectural landscape. In addition to participating in workshops led by METROPOLIS editors, networking and collaboration are integral to the cohort, providing an invaluable opportunity for participants to connect with like-minded professionals and industry leaders.

The San Francisco cohort is featured in METROPOLIS magazine, where you can see the complete list of 2023 Arch30 honorees and learn more about their workshop discussions.
