Most people hire an architect then a contractor.
That's two contracts, two egos, zero alignment.

01

Architect's Eye

A licensed California architect who designs spaces that are beautiful, code-compliant, and buildable from day one — no redesigns when construction starts.

02

Builder's Hands

A B-licensed general contractor who manages every phase of construction with trusted subcontractor teams, keeping your project on time and on budget.

03

One Contract

One agreement. One responsible party. When issues arise on-site, they get solved on the spot — not debated between two firms pointing fingers at each other.

Residential. Commercial. Complete.

From backyard ADUs to commercial tenant improvements, we handle design and construction under one license.

01

Home Renovations

Kitchen, bath, and whole-house remodels with architectural design and hands-on construction management. We draw it, we build it.

Design + Build
02

ADU Design-Build

Detached, attached, and garage conversions — from feasibility through permit through keys. California ADU law expertise built in.

Design + Build
03

Commercial TI

Tenant improvement build-outs for offices, warehouses, and retail. Architecture and general contracting under one contract, one schedule.

Design + Build

From concept to keys.

01

Consult

We discuss your vision, review your property, and define scope and budget together — free of charge.

02

Design

Architectural plans, 3D concepts, engineering coordination — all code-compliant and buildable.

03

Permit

We submit, manage plan check, handle all city corrections, and get your permit approved.

04

Build

Construction managed by the same architect who designed it. Zero lost in translation.

What they say.

"
Having the architect on-site during construction changed everything. Problems got solved in minutes, not weeks of back-and-forth emails between two separate firms. Our ADU came in on budget and exactly as designed.

We interviewed three contractors and two architects before finding Aaron. Once we realized one person could do both — and actually understood our design taste AND our budget — it was a no-brainer. Saved us months.

The warehouse TI was permitted and built faster than any project I've done with separate architect and GC teams. One point of contact made the whole process painless. We'll use AS Design Build for every future space.
