about us

Architarian Design believes in human scaled design at all levels: objects, rooms, buildings, blocks, streets, cities.  We approach design at all scales from an anthropological point of view, paying close attention to functional needs of the users, and the environmental resources of a place (light, air, water, heat).  We believe that uniting human function with natural cues leads to enduring, sustainable design.   We draw inspiration from historical human settlement practices, but believe in executing design with contemporary building practices, technologies, materials and aesthetics.

Founder Elaine Uang is a licensed architect in California and LEED Accredited Professional with experience  designing single family & multi-family residential, educational and commercial projects.  From the beginning of her architecture career, she has utilized 3D building information modeling techniques to design, coordinate and streamline building projects.  She has a passion for sustainable design practices and a strong interest in interfacing with governmental agencies to navigate complex and unconventional processes.
