Serving the Central California Coast since 1983
     Residential Design:  David Hirzel has been serving the design needs of the  California Coast from Watsonville to Santa Rosa. since 1980.  He has become an expert  at accommodating the unique mandates of zoning and design review required by the  many jurisdictions, and the evolving specifications of the California Building Code.     

     New Construction:   With the active participation of owners and contractors   David Hirzel guides the project from original concept, through the three-dimensional  analysis of floor plan and structural stability to the final realization  of the working  drawings.  All projects are designed from the outset with design review and engineering requirements, and the owners’ particular ideas firmly in mind.   
     Remodels and Additions:  Thoughtfully designed with harmonious forms and  details to appear as though they were always existing, remodels and additions are created with the same care and owner participation.  Why change your address when a new, updated look inside and out may be all that's needed.

David Hirzel began his career in the building trades in 1972, installing  kitchens.  Over the next decade he added the skills of carpentry, concrete forming, plumbing,  and electrical work.  This experience laid  the groundwork for his understanding of the systems which combine  to make a building, and how they interact with each other.   On acquiring his California General Contractor’s License in 1983, he  expanded his scope to include larger residential additions, adding design capability in 1986.  Working extensively with existing structures,  he gained an in-depth understanding of the many causes of building  system failures, and how the correct details, incorporated to every  design, can best ensure success.
