The expertise of this firm begins with the client design team and culminates with approved construction documents, administration and coordination during construction. Over the past two decades the founders have been instrumental in leading project teams that have set the bar in value oriented and well designed projects. As the lead professional, all aspects of consultant coordination were their responsibility. Attention to detail, ability to identify potential conflicts early in the process, along with the communication skill to quickly and effectively resolve those issues, are just a few of the traits that set them apart from other architectural firms. In addition, the important aspects of being on time and on budget have always been integral to their success. Ken Toblesky and Steve Green have the ability to work with building officials to achieve the most favorable interpretations of the building code as they relate to each individual project. The success of this process has prompted area home builders to seek their services for quality control reviews of projects designed by other firms. There combined portfolio of projects include the design of thousands of homes, condominiums, and apartments. These projects range from single story homes to four story apartment buildings. Over forty automotive facilities have been designed and developed, not to mention entire golf course country clubs facilities. These projects vary in construction type, occupancy group, square footage, and number of stories. Construction types include Type I, II, III, and V and in both rated and non rated classifications. Some include basements from 40,000 to 70,000 square feet used for parking, service, and parts storage. The height of these structures range from 1 story to 4 stories above a basement. Structural systems are from simple wood construction to more complex structural steel and elevated post tension concrete decks. Mechanical systems include typical split systems and package units to sophisticated chiller and boiler systems that offer the client any level of control they desire. Every project is a new opportunity and is approached with the idea of incorporating what has been learned in the past with new ideas and concepts that lead to innovative solutions and cost effective construction with e ### Services Provided - Architectural Design - Building Design - Home Remodeling - Architectural Drawings - Custom Homes - House Plans - New Home Construction - Home Additions - Home Extensions - Kitchen Design - Kitchen Remodeling - Floor Plans - Energy-Efficient Homes - Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) - Bathroom Design - Green Building - Space Planning - Guesthouse Design & Construction - Universal Design - Multigenerational Homes - Pool House Design & Construction - Home Restoration - Drafting - Handicap-Accessible Design - Outdoor Kitchen Design - Mudroom Design - Tiny House Construction - Garage Design - Deck Design - Staircase Design - Site Preparation - Laundry Room Design - Modular Home Additions - Home Gym Design & Construction - Prefab Houses - Rooftop Deck Installation - Earthquake Retrofitting ### Areas Served - Los Angeles - San Diego - Anaheim - Riverside - Irvine - Moreno Valley - Huntington Beach - Ontario - Rancho Cucamonga - Corona - Pomona - Escondido - Fullerton - Orange - Thousand Oaks - West Covina - San Marcos - Tracy - Chino - Lake Forest - Pleasanton - Upland - Chino Hills - Eastvale - Yorba Linda - Encino - Diamond Bar - Granada Hills - Placentia - Cathedral City - Covina - Rowland Heights - Brea - Palm Springs - La Puente - Montclair - Claremont - San Dimas - Beverly Hills - La Verne - Walnut - Norco - South San Jose Hills - Corona del Mar - Citrus - Charter Oak - Industry - City Of Industry - El Toro - Eldorado Hills - Maui ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Toblesky-Green Architects | | Address | 4854 Main Street, Suite J, Yorba Linda, California 92886, United States | | Phone | (909) 217-1866 | | Website | http://tobleskygreenarchitects.com/ | | Followers on Houzz | 161 | **Social profiles:** - Facebook — http://www.facebook.com/tobleskygreenarchitects - Blog — http://toblesky-greenarchitects.com/ ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [Toblesky-Green Architects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/toblesky-green-architects-pfvwus-pf~813714095) - **Website:** http://tobleskygreenarchitects.com/ - **Phone:** (909) 217-1866 ## Credentials - **Best of Houzz:** 11 awards (2013–2026), for Design, Service. **Affiliations** - [The American Institute of Architects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/schools-and-organizations/the-american-institute-of-architects-pfvwus-pf~1350720471) - [NCARB](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/schools-and-organizations/ncarb-pfvwus-pf~1477640315) ## Reviews **Overall rating: 5.0 out of 5 — 21 reviews** *Aspect averages:* - Work Quality: 5.0 - Communication: 5.0 - Value: 5.0 ### Reviews **★★★★★ — Kathy Feles, Sept. 2025** > Working with Toblesky-Green Architects has been an absolute pleasure! From our very first meeting, Ken listened carefully to our ideas and translated them into a home design that exceeded our expectations in every way. The plan feels both beautiful and practical, with a thoughtful flow that reflects how we truly want to live in our space. > > What impressed us the most was Ken’s ability to combine creativity with precision. Every detail, from maximizing natural light to creating inviting gathering areas was handled with care and vision. The result is a design that feels unique to us, yet timeless in its style. > > We are so grateful for Ken’s talent, professionalism, and collaborative approach. Thanks to him, we now have a home plan that we are genuinely excited to bring to life! We cannot recommend Toblesky-Green highly enough! **★★★★★ — mrallied, July 2024** > After being highly recommended by a family that has built several custom homes, we have been working with Ken Toblesky for the past seven months, as he came up with a warm & charming design for our remodel in Newport Beach. I should mention that Ken’s work could have been completed months ago, if my wife & I had not changed our minds from doing a remodel—to a complete new build—and then back to a remodel. Thanks for handling our indecision so well, Ken! > > My wife & I built a new home many years ago, also in Newport Beach, so we are familiar with the process and it was easy to see—early on—that Ken is someone who really knows his craft and is on top of the ever changing design & construction regulations. He comes up with cost saving ideas and is very upfront & honest about his fees. Lastly, Ken is just a good guy and very pleasant to work with. We highly recommend Toblesky-Green Architects. **★★★★★ — Pam Kellogg, March 2024** > Ken is so easy to work with and gives accurate, straight forward information. He also is extremely responsive and fair. **★★★★★ — colexwar, March 2024** > Working with Ken has been amazing. He has been able to navigate across every issue and barrier that has been presented to us. My wife and I appreciate that he took the time to ask the right questions, listen to our needs, and design our dream home. Thanks Ken! **★★★★★ — Amanda Akune, Jan. 2023** > Ken is absolutely amazing to work with. He is a complete professional, always quick to turn around plan check comments and looking for the best way to optimize a set of plans. His efficiency and attention to detail make the process easy, and easy in this business is a blessing! **★★★★★ — Chris Christian, Jan. 2023** > Toblesky-Green Architects are my go-to. Kens leadership and willing to collaborate and integrate with his fellow consultants goes a long way to complete the project documents in an expedient and accurate manner. **★★★★★ — Chris Cornell, Aug. 2022** > From the outset of our relationship, we found Ken to be a straight shooter and an honest professional. He’s a friendly, reliable and accessible communicator and an incredibly talented architect. > > He was patient with us, understood our vision and helped turn our ideas and desires into a functional and cohesive floor plan and then into impeccably designed construction plans. > > His referrals for surveying, structural engineering, soils reporting, energy compliance, graphic design, and plan printing all proved to be efficient and provided quality work. > > Ken is careful with his recommendations and cognizant of how they reflect on his professional reputation. He was hesitant to refer us to a general contractor, but he’s been responsive, instructive and helpful in his interactions with the contractor we've hired. > > We would absolutely recommend Ken to any family, friends and colleagues who were in need of architectural services. **★★★★★ — Steven Kessler, March 2021** > Ken has been my go to architect both professionally and for my personal residences in excess of twenty years. In a production home building environment, plans which are well thought out and have ease of constructability are key to protecting margins. His plans were always the best received by all the subcontractors and always sold extremely well to the buying public. Ken has utilized all the grueling meetings with my design team professionals to hone his skills in how to best create a home that hits many constituents. His ease in dealing with many personalities has allowed him to pivot and be wildly successful in the custom home environment. He designed my personal residence in Thousand Oaks over a decade ago. We get asked all the time if there are elements we would change if we could do it all over again. The answer is a resounding NO ! He listened to our every desire and incorporated all those wish lists into our dream home. Based on that experience, we have retained Ken to design our now forever home in the Reno/Tahoe area. He obtained his Nevada license without hesitation and we started the process. His ability to work with two strong personalities ( my wife and i ) to come up with a design that again hit all our desires is exactly why we wanted Ken and only Ken to design our new home. He is super easy to work with and has a great personality without a massive ego. Every lot is different and has unique characteristics that Ken can embrace and use his creativity to solve. It has been really fun designing our forever home with Ken and I can't think of anyone i would rather use. He puts his clients first which can be a unique characteristic in the architecture field. Look for pictures in the future of our home and if you are in the Reno/Tahoe area and in need of a fantastic architect, Ken is your man. **★★★★★ — HU-381757773, March 2021** > In a large and complex project, Ken was our most trusted and responsive partner. His designs were elegant, beautiful and responsive to multiple inputs that at times took both a patient and guiding hand. He was very efficient, fair, sensible and knowledgeable; his follow up was excellent. Overall, he was an outstanding partner for project. **★★★★★ — HU-707892449, March 2021** > Ken has been very instrumental in getting us to our current stage of us submitting actual plans for our addition to our home. We had been contemplating whether or not to tackle our project and had talked to numerous contractors, all of which never learned how to return a phone call or how to do what they say they were going to do. Time passed by us and 1-1/2 years later we decided to take another swing at it. We searched for an architect first this time and found Ken Toblesky after finding his positive reviews online. I called him and he was very upfront with me from our first call and explained the process and what to expect along the way which was a breath of fresh air. He has been the shining light in this for my wife and I and has guided us through the confusing and complex process. He has even brought in different people for us to talk to and get a better understanding of where we stand and what options are available to us. If I needed to know his opinion, I asked and he gave me the real answer, whether it be good or bad, and I truly appreciate that. If I could save money he let us know and if we needed to spend money he told us that upfront as well. If you are looking for an architect who pays attention to details, assists in the process, and walks with you through the maze of your project, your search is over, call Ken today! **★★★★★ — Tajann, Jan. 2021** > As a builders, I don't look just for talent, experience, or even cost-effectiveness in my transactions. I look for people who listen, care about my project, understand my vision, and help me achieve it. in fact, my transactions are not transitions, they are intended as long-term relations. > > Ken proved himself to be the right consultant for my projects. He has found the "Genius of And"\* between professionalism and flexibility, a talent that is hard to come by in artists and architects. > > if you're a hands-off client and need his creativity and leadership, he's the right person. if you have your ideas and need someone to listen to you and appreciate your vision and add expert value, again he is the right Architect for you. > > \*Quoting Jim Collins, "Built to Last" **★★★★★ — Andrew Hill, Jan. 2021** > Ken Toblesky is an excellent architect that surpassed all of our expectations. His design creativity, excellent communicative skills, fair pricing, and willingness to go the extra mile for his clients are just a few of his qualities. We will use Ken again on future projects and highly recommend him for others as well. ## Selected projects - [Bay Cliff Terrace, Newport Beach, CA](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bay-cliff-terrace-newport-beach-ca-pj-vj~6598699) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - Description: I wanted to share another project we are currently working on in Newport Beach.
