Get matched with top architects in Manhattan Beach, CA

"They were extremely professional and were able to execute a beautiful space layout combined with interior design. My home has some very odd dimensions and they were able to make my living room actually functional. They created an optimal flow from my dining area to my kitchen as well. I am so happy with all the curated pieces to make our home feel bespoke. My husband and I had a somewhat limited budget, so they were able to mix and match some very high-end pieces with some commercial pieces from Crate & Barrel, HD Buttercup, and even some great finds from FB marketplace!! Every time we step into our home, it makes our hearts so happy just looking at how everything came together. We will definitely come back to A Design when it is time to expand! Thank you!!"

"The work Erdelyi associates did is great, but communication and timeliness were lacking. I didn’t have a consistent point of contact throughout the project - it just seems my project was handed off from one person to the next with no continuity and I had to proactively reach out for updates."

"Let me tell you about Amir he is a stand up and honest guy!! When all architect companies wanted to take me for thousands of dollars Amir instead gave me the tools (knowledge) of what needed to be done to get the site and floor plan done for the city. You don’t meet many business people that will give you honest free advice so Amir is greatly I meant greatly appreciated for his assistance and guidance in getting my site and floor plan completed for the city. Will definitely work with Amir again!!!!"

"AK engineering did an excellent job in structural design of our custom modern house. Amir is very professional and responsive and worked closely with our architect and us. He made himself available for job site visits and questions and his design was efficient and cost effective."

"I am a homeowner who did my own home remodeling architectural design. Even though I had architect degree, but I had never done any project in Los Angeles. As everybody knows, Building and Safety has tons of regulations to follow, which made the permitting process especially difficult. I was so lucky to work with David, my structural engineer, who is very sharp, knowledgeable and hardworking. Not only did he deliver his structural design on time but also he guided me through with all details of my architectural plan. He is very responsive and generous about sharing his knowledge. It was such a surprise when David got me the permit over the counter from the city office with only one attempt, which expedited my remodeling project timeline for at least two months. Definitely recommended!!"

"Jean Prescott Studio did a great job on my medical office! They made the whole process easy and handled everything from design to permits. The team was helpful, clear, and kept things on track. If you need solid architectural work that looks good and stays on budget, I highly recommend them!"

"I had a great experience working with Pacific Sands. The team was thorough, detail-oriented, and highly responsive throughout the process. What stood out most was their ability to combine technical accuracy with practical design solutions. They took the time to address questions, explain design considerations, and adjust details when needed — all without sacrificing quality or efficiency. Would definitely recommend!"
