A FEW KIND WORDS FROM CLIENTS

“I appreciated LMD’s ability to craft a plan that significantly capitalized on the best feature of the house – the view. I also felt there was great communication, and that LMD did an excellent job incorporating my vision with designs that have become a beautiful signature of the house.”

— Warren, Manhattan Beach

“My husband and I have used LMD for our last 3 projects. Luis is a brilliant architect. He is intuitive, listens and creatively blends the clients needs and desires with his own vision for the project. We live in a beach area of Los Angeles where the lots are tiny and expensive. Luis finds a way to create incredible interiors and exterior spaces within a small footprint.”

— Patty & Mike, Hermosa Beach

“Luis took on our rather ambitious renovation and transformed our home into a unique, modern Australian masterpiece. Living on a walk street, privacy was as important to us as the outdoor entertaining space, Luis was able to create a home that gave us these things and more… He treated the entire project like he was designing and building it for himself. There was not one moment in the 2 years that it took to complete, that Luis didn’t give 100%.”

— Rachel, Manhattan Beach
