Zarina Fazaldin and her team at L&Z Historic LLC have spent the last 20 years successfully preserving and designing historic Richmond properties, which she’s turned into affordable housing. Her latest project—a three-year restoration of a historic Jackson Ward home—received a Golden Hammer Award for Best Restoration from the Historic Richmond and Storefront for Community Design partnership in 2021. The home’s bright, festive colors remind Ms. Fazaldin of her homeland, Tanzania.
