JAG Architects was founded in 1982 with a strong commitment toward serving our clients' needs through design excellence. With offices located in both Northern and Southern California we offer a full range of architectural services including: construction documents, urban planning, historic preservation, and interior design. We have extensive experience in residential, retail, and corporate institutions and like to specialize in the re-purposing of existing buildings. We see it as an important step in sustainability to utilize community resources and

preserve the character of historic structures, theatres, and artist live/work spaces.

Our staff is experienced in a wide variety of projects, including designs for major corporations, federal agencies, developers, universities, and individual alike. Our projects are never designed in a vacuum and draw on the context of each individual project. We take into account the needs of each client, their budget and constraints of the site. 

Our goal is to create an environment that enhances the quality of life for those who live and work within our design. We understand the financial and emotional investment placed in each building and feel that, to make a structure sustainable and cost efficient, it must support the program it is intended for. At JAG, great design solutions come from careful observation, deep understanding of client needs, respect for a project’s environment, and years of professional experience.
