YDS Architects Modern Minimalist Design in Southern California
Southern California is in constant evolution. From the pressing need for more housing to the urgent call for sustainable practices, the challenges are complex, but the opportunities for thoughtful design are immense. At YDS Architects, we understand these complexities. We’re not just designing buildings; we’re shaping the future of our communities. Based in Monrovia, California we partner with clients across the region, from Los Angeles, to the coastal communities of Ventura County to the growing cities of San Bernardino, to create spaces that are both beautiful and responsible.
Pushing the boundaries of architectural design
We don’t just create beautiful spaces – we push the boundaries of architectural design to create affordable solutions. We advocate for our clients every step of the way – from initial planning to completion of permits. We partner with the community: realtors lenders, vendors, and planners to offer a seamless experience, and provide viable development options for our customers. Our goal is to help our clients achieve their vision for their dream space, while making the process more affordable.
We acknowledge the California housing crisis.
We founded YDS Architects with a focus on Accessory Dwelling Units and SB 9 Development. We believe that ADU, SB 9, and the legislation that support them are a crucial step towards affordable housing. Our work in residential architecture is based on one principle: We design for families. We believe that sustainable and affordable housing starts with family-centered architecture.
Our team of Big Thinkers
We design, permit, and advocate. We believe architecture that elevates the human experience should be simple and affordable. This approach enables us to make meaningful designs to a range of project types, from accessory dwelling units to residential, landscape, and commercial developments. Our designs are characterized by minimalist, modern, and functional concepts that emphasizes on the family experience, ensuring that our designs are not only aesthetic but also practical and comfortable. We are committed to supporting affordable housing and creating commercial spaces that enables the community.
