Pacific Coast Design Group
Pacific Palisades · Malibu · Est. in the community it builds
A construction, management & development firm For more than twenty-five years, we have built homes of consequence on the California coast — on bluffs, hillsides, and beachfronts where building well is hardest, for clients who notice the difference.
Like-for-like rebuilds, expedited permitting, and insurance-aligned budgets — from a team that has built in the Palisades and Malibu for more than twenty-five years.

Ground-up custom construction at the highest level — hillside, bluff, and oceanfront work delivered with craft, transparency, and discretion.

Oceanfront construction on one of the world's most coveted beaches: deep caisson foundations engineered for coastal soil, custom steel-and-glass curtain walls, seawall reconstruction, and stone hand-selected in Italy and Spain — delivered by a team of more than forty specialty trades.
A bluff-top estate whose infinity pool cantilevers over the Pacific on custom post-tension engineering. Interconnected living pavilions dissolve the line between indoors and out; a hillside access road was rebuilt to make the site buildable at all.
A hillside residence in the spirit of the Tuscan country estates — hand-applied plaster, reclaimed oak beams, a wine cave carved into the hillside — on a caisson-and-grade-beam foundation engineered for LA County's hillside ordinance.
Most builders show you only what's finished. We'd rather show you how it gets there — the plans proven on paper, the site understood, and the build run on open books.
RFIs to the architect and engineers until every conflict is found where it's cheap to fix — on paper, not in the field.
Soils, slopes, access, and what the build will ask of your neighbors — the strategy is written before the first delivery.
Mobilization, the right trades, and a schedule kept in the open — on time, on budget, no surprises.
"What makes Frank and team unique is their total transparency with costs and billing, willingness to go above and beyond the standard to move the project forward, taking true ownership of the results, and working through problems quickly and fairly."
"Very creative, imaginative, conscientious, honest… The work was first class, and he always kept his promises and work schedule."
We didn't just watch the Palisades burn — our office, and years of our work, went with it. Rebuilding is not a market to us. It's our neighborhood.Read Our Story → Fire Recovery Guide →
