ABOUT MBB DESIGN STUDIO
We are a small dynamic residential planning and design firm located in Calabasas
Our firm focuses on contemporary residential design in the Los Angeles area. The success of our projects is a result of the collaborative relationships between our studio staff and each client. We believe that our role is not to dominate the process but rather to guide it to completion with the client’s goals and budget as top priorities. We believe that owners, along with their design team, are partners in the design process, and communication must be open and continuous.
This successful collaboration results in gracious, efficient and comfortable spaces in which to live and work – from early conceptual and planning stages through to construction documents and administration. Our intent is to provide intelligent direction for our clients that will create both value and beauty. We focus on collaboration with all of the partners in the process so that the design experience is transparent, responsive, foresighted, and flexible.
“We can help you realize your dreams, put your ideas on paper, and make sure they get executed/built just the way you envision it.”
