The practice serves clients across the Peninsula, including Atherton, Pebble Beach, and Los Altos Hills. It holds a rating of 4.80 based on customer reviews.

The firm’s perspective on development emphasizes building relationships with clients rather than focusing solely on the house. Its mission is to design and build legacy homes of the highest quality and craftsmanship. Pacific Peninsula Group encompasses four distinct entities: a Development arm, an Architecture company, a division for Custom Homes, and an Interiors studio. These entities operate independently or in tandem to tailor services to specific client requirements. With more than 200 completed projects, the firm leverages relationships with suppliers and subcontractors to deliver projects with efficiency and speed.

Featured projects include Contemporary XVI and Contemporary X in Atherton, and a modernist house in Pebble Beach. The Atherton Contemporary XVI blends French Contemporary style with Streamlined Modern elements, featuring bronze accents, imported stone, and fine plaster work. The Pebble Beach project is described as a spare, modernist house articulated in concrete, aluminum, and stone, with pure geometries and natural light. The Atherton Contemporary X is defined as sophisticated California Contemporary with stucco and limestone exteriors, clay tile roofs, and warm wood accents.

The firm measures its success in repeat clients, word-of-mouth referrals, and consistently strong resale values. It holds a positive rating from the customers who have reviewed it.
