Featured Reviews for Green Building Companies in Brentwood Los Angeles

Sato Architects, Inc.
Green Building Companies in Brentwood Los Angeles
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 4, 2014
“My experience with Audrey Sato was outstanding. She truly is a talented architect who has both great vision and is detail oriented; making the process of designing and constructing my fitness studio a fun and seamless one. I appreciated that she kept in constant contact with me, and was very hands on from design through construction. I felt comfortable asking questions and giving input, and am was very satisfied with the results. Pictures of the studio can be found on Facebook under 'The Dailey Method Calabasas'. Its a beautiful space. Clients of the studio rave about how beautiful, well lit, and comfortable the space is. And we owe it all to Audrey Sato Design Studio!”
EZ Plans Architects
Green Building Companies in Brentwood Los Angeles
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 22, 2017
“I grew up with a father who is a master contractor. In my adult life, I have been involved in countless home renovations, so I've always thought architects are a waste of time & money. They always seem to be writing checks with the customers' money, and have no basis in reality or practicality: they seem so frivolous. Hubby and I bought a mid-century modern home that had been turned into a tuscan style by the previous owners. (can you imagine?) We needed help getting approval from the local city planning board who are a NIGHTMARE to deal with (average of 8-10 plan checks, most cities do 2-3!?) We hired Glen with EZPlans to help us. Glen handled acrimonious city officials, seeming design impossibilities (and even a few vastly different design ideas between hubby and I) with tact, professionalism, and good humor. Dealing with EZ Plans was a breeze. I am so impressed with their vision, their professionalism, and the very talented, creative (and practical) architects they hire. They are exceptional communicators, and are as intuitive as they are talented. EZ Plans turned a simple contractor grade design we could have come up with ourselves, to a design that respected the mid-century bones of our home, and brought it to the practical standards we needed the home to suit. The design they came up with easily increased the value of our renovation tenfold. the only direction they had from me was "I want to respect the home's bones with materials in their natural element, nothing frivolous, but we need the house to be super specialized for our dogs." (maybe that's a bit frivolous....) They took this and ran with it. Incidentally, they are AVID dog lovers (almost as nutty as hubby and I are, ) so they came up with such cool suggestions that will make our old dogs' lives (and our lives) easier. As someone who has scoffed at the need for an architect, (come on, my dad is a contractor!) I can assure anyone: the design of a talented architect is worlds apart from what a contractor, or even designer, could come up with. They take things to another level. Glen increased the value of the renovation by making the design in line with architectural design elements, not current trends that would be outdated quickly after installation. More importantly, they made changes to the home to fit OUR lifestyle and needs, instead of us changing our needs and lifestyles to accommodate the home. This is the difference: architects build homes, contractors build houses. Hubby and I are so pleased with our experience at EZPlans. They make incredible planning, design and architecture...easy. :)”

Vertebrae Art and Architecture
Green Building Companies in Brentwood Los Angeles
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 4, 2014
“Lisa Little worked wonders in our smallish Venice space. We had complicated needs and she found elegant solutions within a tight budget. We redid a kitchen from the walls out, extended it a bit, added a bar, added in a huge walk-in closet and staircase in the master bedroom, and reconfigured a guest loft. The latter involved enclosing a half-wall for privacy via rotating shutters that Lisa dreamed up and designed. The shutters rotate open when the loft is not in use and closed when we have company up there. This was a brilliant idea, brilliantly executed at not much cost. Lisa helped with fixture choice, color choice, and furniture choice, and worked closely with the general contractor and his subs. She exhibited great taste, a firm hand, and a keen eye on the budget. Recommended without reservation.”
Dean Larkin Design
Green Building Companies in Brentwood Los Angeles
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 1, 2017
“We have loved working with Dean on two remodeling projects. Dean was great to work with because he brought his architectural talent and creativity to the table while also listening to our wants and needs -- and even though we were one of his smallest projects, Dean gave us his full attention, which we really appreciated. He did a beautiful job modernizing our mid-century modern home while also preserving its original character. He then turned what I fondly used to refer as "the shed" behind our house into a a great studio / gym.”
Sennikoff Architects, Inc.
Green Building Companies in Brentwood Los Angeles
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 14, 2013
“I'm scrolling thru Houzz and find pictures of our Bungalow that we own in La Quinta, California. It was designed by Sennikoff architects. We love this Bungalow it's beautifully done, we fell in love with the design of the home the first time we looked at it. It's magical inside of the home and outside of the home. Our family has grown and their visits are more frequent, we are in the process of building a new home in the same neighborhood, I so wish I had found Sennikoff Architects before we had started with someone else but I have a lot of his ideas saved which I am planning on using in the new home design.”

GCC Designs

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 17, 2017
“As a real estate broker, property manager and investment property owner for over 15 years I have worked with may designers, contractors and sub contractors (Good and bad) Mark at GCC Designs is at the top of my list of professionals I can trust to do the job right the first time. He shows up on time, articulates the scope of the job in a way that is easily understood and executes on time. The value he provides is right in line with the cost of the job. He is currently working on a major job in my personal home that is moving along just as planned.”

We are thrilled with the way our home turned out and thoroughly enjoyed the process of working with Adrian, Cynthia and their staff.”

Architect or Building Designer FAQs
The duration of a green building project can vary widely based on its complexity, size, and specific green technologies employed. On average, a green building project may take slightly longer than a conventional one due to the careful selection of materials and implementation of innovative practices. A small to medium residential project could range from 6 to 18 months, whereas larger or more complex projects might take longer. Clear communication with your chosen company will help set realistic timelines.
Green Building Companies prioritize materials that are sustainable, recycled, or recyclable, have low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emissions, and are sourced locally when possible. Design trends lean towards maximizing natural light, improving indoor air quality, and incorporating energy-efficient systems. The choice of materials and design elements is influenced by environmental performance criteria, client preferences, and architectural trends focused on sustainability and resilience.
Homeowners should start by defining their goals for sustainability, budget, and design. Researching green building principles and familiarizing oneself with key concepts such as passive solar design, energy efficiency measures, and water conservation can be very helpful. Gathering inspiration and creating a vision board can also aid in communicating your desires to the building company. Lastly, securing financing and understanding any eligible green building incentives or rebates is crucial.
Challenges such as sourcing specific sustainable materials, adhering to green certification requirements, and managing costs are addressed through experienced project management, innovative problem-solving, and robust supplier networks. Companies stay abreast of the latest green technologies and strategies to navigate these challenges effectively, ensuring project goals are met without compromising on sustainability standards.
