Arcanum Architecture

Arcanum Architectures has the exclusive reputation as the ‘best kept secret in the Bay Area design world’. This reputation comes from a rare combination of ultra high quality design, consistent and genuine client care, and a unique level of talent within the team. Arcanum Architecture specializes in projects across both commercial and residential designs of all scales. Design is in the details, which is why this team pays attention to all of them at every stage of the process. This makes certain that every tile is glazed to perfection and each corner is sharp.

Core to the work at Arcanum Architecture is a desire to reflect the local landscape and environment in each design project. This allows for a seamless transition within the landscape, city, or community without sacrificing design and innovation. To achieve this, the team visits every project site to evaluate the local area and see how the design can be fully and gracefully integrated. The team does not stop there, they also research the local community to discover its rich and evolving history. This holistic approach to Arcanum’s projects leads to designs that use space in a creative, functional, and unique way.

Research, knowledge, and awareness inform how Arcanum Architecture approaches each project. Design can communicate a range of values, ideas, and cultures. It is an important link to individuals and communities and can redefine how landscapes and modern architecture coexist.

There is no central or singular philosophy for the team at Arcanum Architecture. Instead, the creative collaborative efforts and communication between both architect and client allows for continual adaptation, innovation, and artistry. This careful approach puts Arcanum Architecture ahead of its competition and though selective in who it works with, the team at Arcanum is always open to new ideas, visuals, and ways of expression.
