About the Firm

Michael Blakemore Architects was founded in Laguna Beach in 2000 and has since grown into a bi-coastal firm of talented designers and professionals who believe in creating inspirational projects. Through our designs, we strive to find the perfect balance between comfort, practicality and beauty. Our goal is not only to create stunning structures, but to improve the environments we inhabit.

​

When we take on a project at Michael Blakemore Architects we pour all of our creative and professional talents into it. We’re passionate about creating designs that will uplift and inspire the way you spend your time in your new custom-designed home. Take a look at some of our recent projects, including Laguna's oldest home restoration, a contemporary oceanfront and a bungalow, part of coastal Orange County's first urban farm.
