We believe that complex program challenges are solved by the collaborative process which results in elegant and inspired design. And we believe that the successful building form has the ability to delight the senses and resonate with the human spirit.
We bring extensive design experience to each project while acknowledging the architectural heritage of each building's context. We work to create spaces that are dramatic and those that are intimate. We investigate spatial adjacencies and hierarchies as they relate to form, function and beauty. Our goal is to create thoughtful and inspired design through the built form.

Testimonials
"Architect Bill Lee provided me with an inspired design for my new home that was unique, functional and beautiful to look at. The challenges involved were many. It had to be built upon an existing underground home's complicated foundation footprint, as it existed, due to strict coastal bank restrictions. I wanted a building that was different than anything else yet one that did not look out of place.
Bill and his great staff of architects were as enthusiastic as I was throughout the entire process and I couldn't be happier with the result."

"Bill Lee and his team totally transformed and expanded an existing shingle style house we purchased into a more classic coastal home well suited for our lifestyle. Upon visiting the site, Bill understood the opportunity to take advantage of the amazing location by adding outdoor living spaces and bringing the extraordinary ocean views indoors with innovative floor plans and by incorporating transom windows throughout the house. Bill and his team identified and leveraged some of the finer details of the original structure but with their inspirational designs, use of clean lines, thoughtful planning and collaborative approach they significantly enhanced the look and usefulness of the entire property. They shaped the design to capture the character of the area and created a house that looks like it could have existed in an earlier time, while giving us a comfortable, warm and welcoming home that we love. Bill and his team are professional, attentive, creative, diligent, imaginative, responsive, collaborative, enthusiastic, fair, trustworthy, and delightful to work with. We highly recommend Bill and his team."
