Get matched with top building designers in Petaluma, CA

"After purchasing our historically registered Maybeck house which had been neglected for years, Igino worked with us to bring the house up to current building standards (new foundation, electrical, plumbing, and most recently, taking on the challenge of replacing a chimney situated in the middle of the house.) In addition to these basic but very important improvements, Igino worked his way through the rest of the house, interior and exterior, consulting with us and making updates in keeping with the design integrity of the home (including a full kitchen re-model.) Finally Igino re-designed and managed from the bottom up (foundation to new pitched roof) the construction of our backyard cottage for which he received a design award from the Piedmont Architectural Design Committee. Igino is a pleasure to work with. He listens. He communicates well. He pays attention to the budget. He’s dedicated to getting the job done right."

"Rob was asked to step-in when we were having major problems getting our plans approved by the building dept. Rob redrew the plans and corrected all the problem areas. The result was a quick approval by the building dept. Rob was very easy to work with and I would use him in the future."

"Very quick and easy to work with. The drawings and the design for our project was perfect! Thank you!"

"Geoff replied promptly to my inquiry and was available within a day per two to take a look at my project. He has been communicative as far as his progress on the drawings and what solutions he's coming up with to solve our challenges. So far our experience has been great."

My office has provided design and architecture services for the past 20+ years throughout the Bay Area. I engage many different project scales, from interior renovations, to small additions, to entirely new homes and sites.\n\nI enjoy collaborating closely with clients to shape their initial goals and needs into a design concept, which helps to guide the project from start to finish. By using plan diagrams, design options explored in 3D, and reference images, we can quickly test different ideas and resolve the look and feel of your project.\n\nI especially enjoy projects that respond to the specifics of each building or site, and strive to creating meaningful connections between indoor and outdoor environments. Regardless of project size, I strive to exceed client expectation and provide complete and professional services from project start, to permitting and on to the construction phase.
