My Belief

The Architect's mission is to observe the conditions of site and program, to listen carefully to the client's needs, problems and goals in order to deliver real world,  functional and code approvable creative solutions.

SITE and LAND PLANNING
ENTITLEMENT & GOVERNMENTAL
PROCESSING & APPROVALS

THIRTY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE SECURING PLANNING AND BUILDING PERMITS IN NUMEROUS MUNICIPALITIES IN SOUTHERN : SUCCESSFULLY EMPLOYING PLANNING, ARCHITECTURAL, CONSTRUCTION and CODE KNOWLEDGE.

Contact me if you are considering a new development on a designated site or are considering a remodel / infill project of an existing facility and we will resolve site plan, accessibility, parking, setback, occupancy, health service approval material containment  or construction issues.

CONSTRUCTION DEFECT and
DAMAGE ANALYSIS REPORTING
CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION


​
My background in Construction Administration includes corporation yard, office building, restaurant, law-enforcement rifle range, maintenance facility and mixed-use podium apartment buildings totaling valuation over 50 million dollars of construction.

​

Damage and defect work includes numerous observation surveys of construction damage following the Northridge earthquakes and expert observation and reporting of construction defects for insurance purposes.


​
CURRENTLY AND IN RECENT YEARS, SECURITY AGAINST ATTACKS ON INNOCENT PEOPLE AND FACILITIES HAS BEEN ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES WE FACE.    WE HAVE EXPERIENCE DESIGNING REMODELS OF GOVERNMENT FACILITIES TO CONTROL ACCESS and HARDEN POTENTIAL TARGETS.    See the Institutional/Security section for examples.

SECURITY / ACCESS
INSTITUTIONAL DESIGN
RESTAURANT DESIGN

Whether in my role as National Design Architect at Taco Bell or as an independent designer and architect for over fifty restaurants, food service facilities and tenant improvements in Southern California, I have added value and helped operators, open, improve and resolve problems, from the floor sinks, to the equipment and seating layouts, menu graphics, material finishes, exhaust systems and everything in between.
