Urbanism Designs

Urbanism Designs We are an end-to-end full service Construction + in-house Design firm in the San Francisco Bay Area. Hi. We also love mixing styles for an eclectic vibe.

We specialize in reviewing and customizing plans from architects, templates, or AI, and personalize them into well-appointed, enduring spaces. We are a multifaceted interior design + build studio in the San Francisco Bay Area. We specialize in designing well-appointed, enduring spaces that are bespoke, modern, bright, and inviting. Whether it's a new construction, renovation, or furnishing, we tak

e cues from your vision and functional needs, and work with your budget and timeline. We believe the spaces we design should be elevated with creativity and personality - never boring. We also happen to really love what we do and are extremely passionate about our work. Our designs have been featured in Dwell, HGTV, Property Brothers (Brother vs. Brother season 6), Houzz, Design Milk, Apartment Therapy, and more. We are also on the board of the House Beautiful’s Advisory Council. We like to keep the way we work flexible, transparent, and straightforward. There is no lengthy paperwork with fine print or long intimidating processes. We don’t charge a retainer fee or designer markups. In fact, we share our trade discounts with our clients. We are happy to meet in-person but we are just as efficient with online collaborations. We can move at your pace or we can help you drive the project to meet your desired timeline. We can bring your vision to life or we can guide you in formulating your individual aesthetic. We believe the services we provide should be personalized to each client, just like the designs we create for every space. We look for projects that are the right fit, spaces that inspire us, and clients who trust us to work our magic. We take a minimalist approach to life which is reflected in our designs as well as in our business structure. We are content with keeping our design team small (just Pamela + Erwin) for flexibility and manageability. We value the hands on relationships with our clients so they’ll be directly working with us and not passed down to associates. We are focused on deepening the quality of our work, not growing to just expand the number of employees. We offer full-service design and typically take on full house New Construction, Renovation, and Furnishing projects.

- Collaboration with architects, builders, structural engineers, vendors (we have our own team but we are open to working with client’s existing team)

- Drawings for permit and construction

- Space planning and visualization: CAD floor plan and elevation drawing, visual mood board/concept board, 3D rendering

- Materials, finishes, fixtures, and colors selection

- Furniture, lighting, window treatment, floor covering, artwork, accessory selection

- Custom furniture and built-in cabinetry design

- Purchasing, procurement, order management

- Installation, finishing touches, styling

- Virtual design and e-consultations via video conferences

- Sustainable and Smart Home designs

- One-time, no obligation onsite consultation at the hourly rate for homebuyers looking to make an offer and would like to have a better expectation on the renovation process (i.e. timeline, estimates, layout, design, etc.)

Excited to kick off our Tokyo Square Garden office project this month! A few of our fave moments from the Hiroshima office that we finished last year. We got to experience first hand how incredibly efficient and streamlined the process is in Japan. Renovation and furnishing the entire office took only around 4 months. We are so fortunate to have our amazing Japan counterpart to assist with project coordination. Thank you Ayumi-san, couldn’t have done it without you! 🙏🤍

At our Kyoto inspired Eichler project, We completely removed the wall separating kitchen and dining, so we could double the cabinet storage, add a bar + an appliance garage, and incorporate dining into the open space for a more functional and inviting flow. Clients upgraded their dining furniture after we took these photos so we may have to go back for more 😉

Was going through some albums and found some great memories. Don’t think I’ve ever showed you the after/before (same angle) of this Eichler kitchen renovation. We removed 2 walls and added 2 islands for a real chef’s kitchen.

Walnut love 🤎 We haven’t had the chance to go back to shoot this project and our vendor just sent over a few phone snaps. A nice reminder of this fun project with wonderful clients on this Monday where we’re feeling a bit mentally drained 😅

More details of this Kyoto inspired Eichler kitchen where the Belvedere quartzite backsplash takes centerstage and form truly meets function. Captivating and one of a kind, yet durable, so easy to clean, and pretty much maintenance free. Last image for the “before”!

Haven’t done a before/after in a while. The inspo came from Park Hyatt Kyoto where these sweetest clients stayed during their honeymoon and we finished the renovation just before their baby girl was born. How special is this project? Even more grateful to call them friends after this journey together 🫶

Our fav projects are always ones with established mutual trust and respect. We’re grateful to have been doing this long enough to have 80% of our projects with repeat clients and referrals. This is the 3rd house for these awesome clients who we first met 9 years ago. Growing with these relationships is absolutely the most rewarding part of our work 🤍 These photos were taken a few weeks ago so we’re just now waiting for furniture to arrive for move-in!

It’s not everyday that we get the privilege to design + build a custom house entirely from architectural to furnishing. And to do it for an old friend from my past life is truly a once in a lifetime dream come true. When L first visited me after I left the corporate gig, she told me that one day she’ll hire me to build her dream home which she doesn’t remember saying but it stayed with me all these years 😉 Can’t believe we actually made it happen 15 years later! 💫 Finally sharing a quick reel (all taken weeks ago before clients moved in) of this really special project that’s very very dear to our hearts ❤️
