Hamida Architects designs primary residences and generational estates for principals and founding families across coastal California.

Led personally by Nidal Hamida (15+ years, formerly of Marmol Radziner), every project begins with a documented Discovery Phase and ends with the principal architect still on site at final punch list.

Our work is built on a single principle : an estate should reflect the family it was designed for, not the architect who designed it. Every project begins with a full-day Discovery Phase on site with the family, before any drawings are produced. The output - a Lifestyle Guide -  drives every subsequent design decision and ensures the home maps to how you actually live.
