Weather Projects is an architecture studio founded in 2013 and based in Los Angeles. The studio provides design services for architecture, interiors, and furniture. The work is based on dialogues between forms and spaces that offer society a sense of place, fascination, and a new way to experience the world. We believe this dialogue leads to better buildings, communities, and cities for us all.

Our residential projects create a background for modern life. We work closely and collaboratively with homeowners and thoughtful local developers. Our projects range from individual home renovations and additions to ground up single and multi-family developments. Our design focus revolves around responsive buildings and spaces that improve the health, wellness, and aesthetic qualities for it’s inhabitants and the surrounding community. Currently our residential projects are located in Los Angeles and Marin Counties.

Our commercial projects are with innovative companies seeking unique architecture that speaks directly to their brand identity. These projects range from a hotel in downtown Los Angeles to highly complex clean rooms and mission control spaces for Virgin Orbit in Long Beach. Our abilities to open up collaborative dialogue while maintaining focus on the priorities of the client, program, and site give us unique insights into the projects attributes. These collaborative efforts and insights result in design solutions for an architecture that is uniquely situated within the identity of the company.
