Garcia Architects offers a full range of architectural design, interior design, and construction management services. We help you identify and achieve your functional and aesthetic needs within your budget and timeframe.
In addition to eco-friendly design, we specialize in human-friendly design that supports optimal health and wellbeing. We have specialized knowledge in specifying VOC-free (non-toxic) products, lighting that supports occupants' circadian rhythm, and other wellness-based design solutions when requested by clients. We are passionate about designing spaces that incorporate natural materials and soothing colors. Ultimately, however, achieving your vision, functional requirements, budget, and schedule is our highest priority.
