Meet Our Team
Patrick Sean Allen
Founder and Principal Architect
I create unique and personal designs that combine my talent as an architect with my skills and knowledge as a builder. This enables our team to design to our client's needs, be it budget and/or program, while continually making informed decisions throughout the entire design process.
My professional designations include a B.S. in Architecture from Arizona State University and an M.Arch from SCI-Arc. I am a member of the American Institute of Architects, a certified Interior Designer in California, and a licensed contractor.
Outside of my business, I also teach in the Interior Design program at UCLA, and love restoring and maintaining classic vehicles from the ‘60s.
