  • San Francisco & Bay Area

Mark Reilly Architecture is a full-service architectural design firm specializing in renovations, additions, and new construction projects throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.

We collaborate with clients to design homes that fit their budget, building site, and way they live. By listening closely, we develop customized, well-detailed solutions that meet their individual needs. We then follow through with strong execution to create warm, light-filled living spaces.

Our firm prides itself on its strong design ideas, problem-solving skills, approachability, and ability to navigate the permitting process. Rather than follow a particular design style, we strive to maximize natural light, open up views, and connect to the outdoors. We respect the old, integrate the new, and make generous use of natural materials in a sustainable manner.

Projects range from kitchen remodels and basement build-outs, to complete house renovations and ground-up construction.

 San Francisco Edwardian &#8\2\1\1; Kitchen Renovation / Addition: This kitchen was moved to the location of a former bedroom. Light colors, satin finish paint, a glass backspalsh, and polished countertops help reflect light and visually expand the size of the small space. Douglas fir cabinets add warmth. Full height upper cabinets, back-to-back island cabinets, and a large pantry maximize storage. Photo: Bruce Damonte

 San Francisco Edwardian &#8\2\1\1; Dining & Deck Renovation / Addition: This Edwardian was gutted and expanded within it&#8\2\17;s existing building footprint. Rear stairs were removed and a Nana window wall was added to connect the home to its stellar views and deck, and to flood the space with natural light. A floating wall of painted v-groove boards provides separation, yet openess, between the new kitchen and dining room. A new stair links this level to the new office and guest bedroom below.

 Belvedere &#8\2\1\1; Kitchen / Dining Relocation: The need to preserve historic windows, with sills that fell below counter height, was resolved by &#8\2\20;floating&#8\2\2\1; the new prep and clean-up sinks in front of the windows. A mix of old trim, crisp white cabinets, and a marble splash gives the space a bright, modern feel. Photo: Paul Dyer

A bay window with window seat was added to bring in light and connect the space to the garden. Radiant heat was installed under a new wood floor to help keep the space warm. Photo: Peter Medilek
