For most of us, the opportunity to build your own custom home would exemplify the culmination of a lifelong dream. For my wife and I, whom both came over to this country as immigrants many years back, it represented the chance to bring to fruition one of our life goals and aspirations.

Back in 2015, we had the opportunity to purchase a plot of land along the California coastline. When it came time to look for the right architect to help us realize our dream home, my wife and I spared no time and effort to look for the right firm to take on this important task. We interviewed over six architectural firms specializing coastal home design up and down the coastline from Long Beach, to Newport Beach, to Laguna Beach, San Clemente, and San Juan Capistrano. Most architectural firms have extensive portfolios to review; however, our reason for choosing FoxLin Architects is beyond their ability to express a design language that meets their client’s needs and desires. It is their commitment to meet and exceed their clients’ expectations and personalities that sets them apart.

I have had the absolute pleasure of working with Juintow Lin, principle architect, in the creation of my custom home since hiring their firm in 2017. The architectural process from design, to getting plans passed through Coastal Commission, then City Building and Planning can be a confusing and laborious process; especially for someone who has never built a home before. However, Foxlin Architects made the entire process easy. They absolutely took care of everything, and detailed the steps taken throughout project in ways that were clear and easily understandable.

They have the capability of being a full service firm; whereas some firms stop at providing design and plans. This method would leave the client to separately hire a designer to help with the fit and finish materials for the custom home. However, these guys can do it all from start to finish. They left no detail unturned when it came to the design and build of my home. Melissa, the project manager assigned our case, has been great to work with. She and Juintow directed us to the exact store locations that would carry the items and materials that was needed for our build. Their level or care and personalization when it came to finished design exceeded our expectations.

FoxLin Architectural Firm can also assist their clients through the building phase of their home. If needed, they will also assist their clients in finding the right contractors that will meet their needs and budjet. Also, they will perform site visits as needed to check on the realization of their design and plans. Any adjustments to the plans to meet building codes will be done through their firm. They coordinate services with civil, structural, and soils engineers that are needed to provide reports to the city building engineers and inspectors. This service has been extremely helpful since many issues tend to come up throughout the construction process that can be address by a full service firm.

Overall, I cannot highly recommend them enough. They have been fantastic to work with. Their prices are quite fair; their work is excellent; they have been easy to work with; and they absolutely care about meeting and exceeding the expectations of their clients. Lastly, if an architect’s credentials are a concern for a client, then this firm has it in spades. Both principle architects, Michael Fox and Juintow Lin, are professors of architecture at Cal Poly University, and graduated from MIT. A quick visit to their website will make it pellucid the quality and scope of their work. If you are looking for an architectural firm to meet your every need and discerning taste, FoxLin Architects is the right choice.
