Founded in 2003, Feldman Architecture is an award-design practice recognized for creating warm, soulful, light-filled spaces that are site-sensitive and carefully crafted. Our vibrant, 40-person San Francisco-based studio believes in the importance of great design because we understand that the quality of architecture shapes the quality of life and what we create can be meaningful for many generations.
Highly collaborative in nature, Feldman Architecture approaches design as a dialogue between clients, collaborators, and site – listening without preconceptions to collectively identify challenges and propose thoughtful solutions. Our studio views each project as an opportunity to craft an innovative solution that is highly responsive to people and place.
Feldman Architecture champions resilient, regenerative design strategies that prioritize communities, future generations, and the environment. At each project’s inception, we outline climate action goals that are developed and executed throughout each phase of the construction and design process. Our innovative office-wide carbon budget for residential projects tracks and measures each project’s predicted embodied and operational carbon emissions from design through post-occupancy. As signatories of the AIA 2030 Commitment, Feldman Architecture is working towards a carbon neutral future – with one of California’s first Living Building Challenge certified residence currently under construction.
Lead by Jonathan Feldman, FAIA, alongside three partners, the studio has accumulated many national architecture awards including the prestigious Chicago Athenaeum American Architecture Award, as well as over 100 regional, local, and trade awards for design, sustainability, and firm culture. We’ve been featured in premiere national publications, released our first monograph, Immersed, in 2021, and were recently named among the top 200 best residential architects in America by Forbes, as well as Best Residential Firm, Jury Winner, in the 2025 Architizer A+ Awards.
