The Team

Norman Sanchez | Architect, AIA, LEED AP
Norman's passion for Architecture began at an early age when he would accompany his great uncle to visit the resort hotels and cultural buildings his firm had designed and built throughout Mexico. This early exposure to the rich architectural styles of Mexico, the use of light and color, and the incorporation of nature led to his decision to pursue a career in Architecture.

After completing his degree in Architecture at the University of California at Berkeley, he began his Architecture apprenticeship initially in Mexico designing and building custom homes and commercial spaces in the traditional Mexican architectural style and completed it in northern California at a small firm specializing in high-end residential design throughout the greater Bay Area. Once obtaining his license to practice Architecture in 2003 he started a firm in Alameda, California.

A strong advocate of sustainable design, Norman became a LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Accredited Professional in 2008.
