Bricolage, Inc.

Bricolage, Inc. is a Santa Monica–based architecture firm with over 30 years of experience in residential design and construction across Los Angeles. We specialize in single-family homes, multi-family residences, and intergenerational housing, with a focus on sustainability, fire-resilient construction, and tailored design. Our work balances technical expertise with creativity, resulting in thoughtful, enduring homes that reflect each client’s lifestyle and vision.

We bring deep knowledge of fire-resistant materials, building systems, and regulatory requirements to support homeowners—along with a partnership with Arup to develop a Fire Resilience Test Model, a first-of-its-kind framework that evaluates how construction materials and methods perform under fire conditions. Designed to streamline permitting, guide architects and homeowners, and support the adoption of fire-resilient systems, the model addresses both technical and regulatory barriers to make safer, more sustainable housing more accessible statewide.

From feasibility studies and budgeting to permitting, construction oversight, and post-occupancy evaluation, Bricolage provides full-service architectural support rooted in long-term livability, safety, and design integrity.
