Michael J. Harlock A.I.A. is a full service residential design firm located in Marin County, California. The focus of our practice: the creation of elegant architectural solutions that enhance the lives of homeowners. The focus of our service: comprehensive management of the often complex process of home design and renovation, from program definition to construction close out.

We pride ourselves on close collaboration and attention to the needs and aspirations of homeowners. Their lifestyles, knowledge and dreams are essential components of a successful design. It is our job to fully understand them. We do not sweep in with "cape and ego brandished" to impose our aesthetic agenda.

Our extensive experience with budgetary limits, respect for site ecology and traditional home styles, and mastery of agency approvals allows owners to relax and enjoy their own creative potential for enhancing their environment. We are driven by the conviction that client satisfaction is the ultimate reward. Our repeated success validates this conviction.
