About Us

Founded in 2011 by licensed architect Devin Moreau, Moreau Architects is a full-service boutique architecture firm rooted in the heart of Manhattan Beach and the greater South Bay of Los Angeles. As both a design professional and longtime South Bay resident, Devin brings a deeply personal understanding of the communities he serves.

Devin holds a Bachelor of Architecture from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo and a Master of Business Administration from California State University, Long Beach — a rare combination that bridges visionary design with sharp business acumen.

Our Mission

To design tomorrow's architecture — today.

At Moreau Architects, we believe great architecture is more than structure — it is a living expression of identity, purpose, and place. We blend classical elegance with modern innovation, guided by rigorous project management and an unwavering commitment to sustainability and the built desires of our clients. Wherever possible, we specify eco-conscious, American-made materials and products, honoring both our environment and our communities.

We design buildings that are:

• Flexible — built to evolve with your needs
• Healthy — spaces that promote well-being
• Visually compelling — architecture with a distinct identity
• Secure — thoughtfully engineered for safety and longevity

We believe the most successful buildings honor their surroundings while standing apart — adding lasting value to owners, occupants, and the neighborhoods they call home.

Our Services

We provide comprehensive, full-service architectural solutions across three core sectors:

Residential | Commercial | Healthcare 

Our services include:

• Architecture & Design
• Planning & Entitlements
• Construction Management
• Consulting

We are committed to enriching the built environment of Southern California — one thoughtfully designed project at a time.

The Moreau Experience — From Concept to Completion

When you choose Moreau Architects, you gain far more than a design team — you gain a dedicated partner.

From your very first consultation through the final walkthrough, you will receive:

• Undivided, personalized attention at every phase of your project
• Expert navigation through design, permitting, and construction
• Direct coordination with all authorities having jurisdiction over your project
• Full design and permitting management — handled seamlessly on your behalf
• Turnkey Construction Management — Our Most Recommended Service

What We bring to the table:

• Team relationship with client
• Value with experienced project management
• Custom agreements for each Project
• Exceptional communication
• References from previous clients
• 3D modeling software
• Full team of qualified engineers and designers

For clients who prefer a single, trusted point of contact from design through delivery, we offer full Turnkey Construction Management. We act as your dedicated agent — communicating directly with contractors, reviewing payment applications, and verifying that all completed work aligns precisely with the approved design intent.

Construction can be complex, time-consuming, and stressful — especially for first-time owners. We take that burden off your plate entirely, so you can focus on the vision while we manage the details.

Why Moreau Architects?

We deliberately keep our workload focused and our overhead lean — not to limit what we do, but to elevate how* we do it. This intentional approach allows us to deliver a level of attention, creativity, and care that larger firms simply cannot match.

• Boutique by design — every client receives our full focus
• Word-of-mouth built — our reputation is our greatest asset
• Partners in design — not just your architect, but your advocate
• Results-driven — we align our designs with your business and personal goals

"Our position is simple: to exceed your expectations so completely that you'll recommend us for life."
