Architectural Design and City Permit Services in Los Angeles

Navigating Los Angeles Plans and Permits with Confidence

Welcome to the complex, creative landscape of building in Los Angeles. Whether you're dreaming of a modern hillside home, expanding a commercial space, or simply adding a new deck, the journey from concept to completion involves two critical phases: visionary architectural design and navigating the intricate city permit process.

We are your local experts, streamlining both to turn your vision into a reality, faster and without the typical stress.

Visionary Architectural Design

We don't just draft plans; we design spaces that inspire and function beautifully within the unique context of Los Angeles living.

• Residential Design: Custom homes, remodels, additions, and Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). We maximize your space and enhance your lifestyle.

• Commercial Architecture: Designing functional, attractive, and code-compliant spaces that help your business thrive.

• Feasibility Studies: Before you commit, we assess the potential of your property, taking into account zoning laws, building codes, and local regulations.

• 3D Rendering & Visualization: Walk through your future space before construction begins with detailed, realistic renderings.

City Permit Process Expediter

The Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) and various other city agencies have unique requirements. We demystify the bureaucracy and handle the legwork for you.

• Plan Check Submittal: We prepare and submit all necessary documentation to the city, ensuring compliance with local zoning ordinances and building codes.

• Corrections & Resubmittals: We actively manage the plan check process, addressing examiner comments and making necessary revisions quickly and efficiently.

• Expedited Services: We leverage our relationships and experience to navigate the city's system efficiently, minimizing costly delays.

• Permit Acquisition: We handle everything up to the final issuance of your building permits, so you can break ground sooner.
