Ogawa Fisher Architects

Ogawa Fisher Architects designs homes that are timeless and joyful, tailored to the unique needs and aspirations of our remarkable clients. With over two decades of experience in the Bay Area, we bring a modern design sensibility to a range of residential projects, including new, ground-up homes, and a deep expertise in reimagining and modernizing mid-century California ranch homes. This vernacular, deeply rooted in the Peninsula’s architectural landscape, offers generous light and strong connections to the outdoors — qualities we thoughtfully preserve and enhance through renovation when possible.

Our personalized, collaborative process, which includes full architectural and interior design services, means you can wholeheartedly enjoy the experience. Our process begins with listening. We get to know each client’s goals, communication style, and priorities, building a collaborative relationship that supports both creativity and clarity. From first sketches to move-in day, we guide the process with attention to detail and warmth.

We approach each home holistically, considering natural light, indoor-outdoor flow, spatial relationships, and long-term flexibility, while navigating the complexities of site conditions and local approvals. Our work is defined by a clean, modern aesthetic that remains grounded in function, livability, and beauty.

Wherever possible, we integrate green building principles and passive home strategies to ensure our homes are as resilient as they are enduring.
