Architect Serving the Peninsula & Silicon Valley
From hillside estates in Los Gatos and Woodside to refined remodels in Los Altos and Menlo Park, Isaman Design, Inc. brings 30 years of architectural experience to Bay Area residential design across the Peninsula and Silicon Valley.
We work closely with homeowners in Atherton, Menlo Park, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, Woodside, and Los Gatos on new construction, additions, and full home remodels, guiding each project through the local permitting and design review process specific to that town. Our use of visual simulation technology lets clients see and refine their home's design before construction begins, bringing clarity and confidence to decisions that used to rely on flat drawings and guesswork.
It's a process built around collaboration at every stage, from first sketch to final walkthrough.
Bay Area Peninsula Cities We Serve
Every city and town we work in, Atherton, Menlo Park, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, Woodside, and Los Gatos, has its own planning department, its own review process, and its own priorities. We take the time to understand what each jurisdiction expects before a project reaches submittal, so our clients see fewer surprises and a smoother path from first concept to final approval, no matter which town they're building in.
Atherton
We design for scale and privacy on wooded, multi-acre lots. Our focus is proportion and quiet luxury: interiors that open to the outdoors, materials that age well, and layouts that work with the existing canopy.
Menlo Park
We design additions and remodels that feel like a natural extension of the home, and new construction that fits the surrounding streetscape. Many clients want classic charm paired with open, modern interiors.
Los Altos
We design clean, contemporary homes that still feel at home on the street. Simplified forms, quality materials, and massing in scale with the neighborhood, along with natural light and open floor plans.
Los Altos Hills
We start every project with the land itself. Homes are designed to work with the slope and topography, stepping down a hillside or framing a view rather than fighting the site.
Woodside
We lean into rustic materials, reclaimed wood, stone, and metal, and design floor plans around how people actually live on larger acreage.
Los Gatos
Near downtown, we design with an eye toward proportion and craftsmanship. In the hills, the focus shifts to contemporary living and a more modern material palette. We work fluently in both.
