Leading with Design, Building the Future

Mark brings 25+ years of architectural leadership—and seven years on the construction side—to complex urban housing in Los Angeles. His portfolio covers multifamily, mixed-use, permanent supportive, and adaptive-reuse work. Prior to founding Lahmon Architects, he was a founding partner at PSL Architects, where projects earned LABC and national AIA/HUD awards. Earlier at Killefer Flammang, he managed multiple award-winning adaptive-reuse projects and contributed research that informed the City’s Adaptive Reuse Ordinance. He is a California-licensed architect, AIA member, and LEED AP.

We believe great architecture is a stage for everyday life – quietly powerful, deeply functional, and unmistakably human.

Built for people, budgets, and the city

Our goal is to develop creative and appropriately unique solutions that provide a positive and empowering experiential sense of place. We believe that architecture is the stage and backdrop of the built environment that has the power to shape and influence lives internally as well as externally, create memories, and either allow or prohibit thoughts and actions.

From drawing to doorstep, we create places that spark belonging today and resilience tomorrow.
