MacCracken Robinson Architects has been a full-service architecture firm since 1985. Our main office is located in the South of Market area of San Francisco in a warehouse building full of light with exposed structure and warm materials. It is an expression of some of the qualities we incorporate into our design work.
We have a 40 year history of designing diverse and inspiring places and spaces across the country, including the San Francisco Bay Area, Southern California, Napa Valley, Lake Tahoe, Whitefish, MT., Boston, New York and Hawaii.
Our work begins with collecting information — listening to our clients wishes and goals, assessing site conditions, understanding cultural context, and considering environmental factors. We are inspired by the process of translating owner vision and program and site context into specific principles that lend rationale to our design work and result in beautiful, highly functional spaces.
We emphasize the use of local, sustainable materials, and seek a balance of natural light and shadow united with carefully curated scale and proportion to establish a coherent language of architecture unique to our client and site environment.
Our team is dedicated to achieving a seamless union of design development, careful execution of construction detail drawings, and regular involvement during construction. We are committed to finding meaningful, provocative, and functional solutions for our clients, within established budgets and schedules.
