Lafranchi Architecture and Development was founded by Ken Lafranchi in 1992. Though he earned a degree in Architecture from the California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo, instead of going directly into building design upon graduation, Ken decided to learn the subject "from the ground up", and applied his energy to building construction.
After spending a year backpacking around the world and experiencing some of the world's built masterpieces, Ken returned to pursue his passion for architecture and development. Like most successful architectural firms, the Lafranchi team believes that buildings are functional art, and seeks to design and develop structures that add aesthetic value to the community.

Services
Headquartered in Santa Rosa, California, Lafranchi Architecture and Development concentrates on commercial projects within Sonoma County. The firm's major interests include winery design and promoting the renewal and redevelopment of underused or outdated urban properties. The firm's services include architectural design, construction management and property development.
Key to any successful project are the design & builder team members. We were fortunate to have Ken Lafranchi on our team from the very first scoping meeting right through to the grand reopening two years later. His abilities are now legendary, from our perspective, as we watched the project unfold from doctored pictures and bundles of drawings to giant holes in the ground and then the framework of what would become our new business home.
