PROJECT: CUSTOM HOME Design+Build - Hollywood Beach, CA
To realize a 3-story luxury vacation home out of a dilapidated beach, I meticulously crafted a custom design that met the owners’ aesthetic and functional needs while optimizing the narrow lot and natural beauty of the Pacifc Ocean. Every detail was tailored to their lifestyle and preferences, resulting in a unique home that truly reflected their personality. Each phase of construction was executed with precision and creativity, from selecting premium materials to coordinating with skilled craftsmen, ensuring the highest standards on time and within budget.

PROJECT: RESTORATION & ADDITION - Los Laurelas Grade, Carmel Valley, CA
This mid-Century gem was stuck in the 1980’s when the new owners, a 3-generation family, reached out for help with resolving code violations that were impeding their purchase of this unique property. By artfully uniting the two existing and mis-matched structures, I seamlessly integrated disparate design features, expanding the footprint to re-imagine this exquisite single-family home. From the initial vision to the final permit, I worked closely with the family to ensure their lifestyle needs were reflected throughout, providing a cozy and more liveable space that pays tribute to its original design. The newly realized home boasts upgraded kitchen and design features that enhance the inherently sublime Carmel Valley experience.

ADU, JADU, Guest Houses & Cabanas
Projects completed include properties in Hancock Park, Mid-Wilshire Los Angeles, San Fernando Valley, Santa Barbara and Ventura, CA. Each structure is unique to its site, compliments the style of the existing home, and meets the expressed requirements of the homeowner. Concepts include stand alone structures, additions to existing houses, re-modeling an interior floor plan or garage, while adding storage space or rooftop entertainment areas. These “tiny homes” may be small in stature but they are large in style and opportunity.

PROJECTS: HISTORIC & SEISMIC REHAB - 714 Market St, Tacoma, WA; 1000 Market St and 55 Fifth St, San Francisco, CA; and the Backstage Kitchen & Bar and the Drift Hotel, Santa Barbara, CA.
While I embrace the challenge inherent in new structures, preserving the unique features of historic properties during restoration while protecting their safety and stability is an honor. My years of experience in historic rehabilitations and seismic retrofitting ensures that older structures meet modern safety standards without compromising their original character. I take pride in overseeing every stage of construction to maintain consistency and quality throughout, delivering a beautifully finished structure that truly exemplifies the unique hallmarks of Meckauer Design+Build, Inc.

PROJECTS: FIRE & FLOOD REBUILD - Oakland, CA and Ventura, CA
Living through the shock and nightmare of a natural disaster has become all too common in this era. I have extensive experience assisting families and companies to rebuild. From the Northridge earthquake in Los Angeles, to the Oakland Firestorm to the Thomas Fire in Ventura, California, I have designed and built new structures, helped homeowners navigate the insurance process, cleared and disposed of debris, and guided families through the devastation to new beginnings.

Concept Sketches & Drawings
A great idea starts with a great sketch, and I believe there is nothing in design as warm and inspiring as a drawing crafted by hand. Through my invaluable education in Architecture at Cal Berkeley, and my vast experience in the field collaborating with architects, engineers, interior designers and landscape architects, I have crafted an ability to “build the house” in my mind as I move my hand across the paper. I hope these samples of my passion for liveable architectural design will inspire you to “build your house” in your mind with me.

Accessory Buildings, Decks, Trellises, and Landscaping
There is no limit to what residential design+build project I will tackle with passion, excitement and attention to detail. Collaboration on a project that brings meaning and joy to my valued clients inspires purpose and satisfaction. Beautiful, lush landscaping invites rest, relaxation and renewal. A new terrace with built-in BBQ, lighting, trellis or water feature encourages social gatherings where happy memories and togetherness are treasured. As you share the dreams you treasure for your new home I will sharpen my pencil to bring that dream to life.
