+ direct access to your architect
The firm’s small size means every client gets the firm’s principal, Bailey Bestul, as their project manager and direct point of contact.

+ intensive code knowledge
With experience guiding nearly 200 potential ADU clients in site analysis, delivering presentations to local Coastal Commissions, accessibility code consulting on a major commercial project, collaborating carefully with the LA Planning Department and the Department of Engineering on novel projects, working on challenging hillside sites in Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones and consistent continuing education on the latest housing legislation, Bailey has been routinely able to get difficult projects - including developments other firms have denied for their legal difficulty - approved swiftly.

+ unparalleled client relationships
The fee structure and comprehensive project process at post-Architecture allows Bailey to dedicate significant time to helping clients navigate the design, permitting and construction process. Previous clients frequently cite the architect-client relationship as one of their favorite parts of working with Bailey.

+ cost-effective designs
As a veteran of the prefab space, Bailey is well aware of the available tools and design strategies to minimize the cost of a build and brings this cost-conscious approach to every commission. By allocating cost strategically among critical items and removing unnecessary extras while paying careful attention to detailing, Bailey has been able to create award-wining projects that don’t break the bank.

+ eco-friendly features
Bailey’s research, teaching and writing on embodied carbon, building material reuse, design for passive performance, building science and energy and water budgeting allows him to bring the most contemporary, cost-effective green building solutions to each project. Most importantly, these features are automatically integrated into designs where they are financially practical, so clients don’t have to specifically request them.
