Fair Studio 

Describe a project that evolved dramatically from start to finish.

On several occasions, Fair Studio was commissioned to design detached pergolas, but through thoughtful discussions with our clients we pivoted to develop more expansive designs for a pool house. One notable instance involved a project where the homeowners were able to move into their newly completed pool house while their main residence was undergoing a comprehensive remodel. 

We begin every project by thoroughly researching potential development opportunities, considering the highest and best use of the property. This often includes exploring options to add square footage to enhance property value. Our approach maximizes the potential of each lot, empowering clients to make well-informed investments that align with the long-term vision for their home.

Do you collaborate with other industry professionals?

Our firm has worked to gain the trust of many industry leaders, and we have had the privilege of working on the personal homes of local architects and builders in the area.  It has been a great honor to be entrusted with the full exterior façade design and hardscape of the residences of those who have deep knowledge of architecture and design. We were honored to be welcomed as collaborators on these homes, which are owned by individuals with deep expertise in architecture and design. Being entrusted with such projects has been both a privilege and a testament to the trust and mutual respect we’ve cultivated within the design community.

As Fair Studio celebrates its 11th year of business in the South Bay, we are grateful for the strong relationships we’ve developed with local design professionals. Over the years, we’ve consistently found that collaboration is key to delivering exceptional results. In every project we’ve been involved with, consultants from various fields have worked seamlessly with us, contributing to finding the best solutions for our clients. This cooperative spirit has enriched our work and allowed us to continually bring fresh ideas to the table.

What type of projects do you primarily focus on?

We consider all aspects of a home’s design. Whether it’s large-scale developments on multi- acre properties or intricate, detail-oriented designs like our upcoming 8th Street project with a disappearing pool, we approach each project with the same enthusiasm and dedication. Currently we are working on exciting projects in Lake Tahoe, Tiburon and the Southern Oregon Coast, and we continue to expand our work throughout the United States.
