Lincoln is a San Francisco native who has lived most of his life on the California coast. He grew up in The City, surrounded by the creative energy of post-1960’s culture in a household of artists and filmmakers. He attended local schools that nurtured his interests in art, culture, and design.

 Lincoln has over 25 years of experience in architecture and related fields. He holds degrees in fine art and architecture, graduating with honors from the Master’s program at California College of the Arts. He began his career as an architectural lighting designer and then worked for over a decade at prestigious local architecture firms Holt Hinshaw and Jensen Architects. He obtained his California architect’s license in 2013 and started his own practice in 2015.

 Lincoln’s passion for architecture is grounded in the discipline’s intersection of art, science, and sustainability. His progressive upbringing instilled a deep desire to be part of the solution to society’s challenges, and he believes that the role of the architect as creative problem solver is clearer than ever in the age of climate change. 

 The firm had an office in the Bernal Heights neighborhood of S.F. for several years, right next to Pinhole Coffee, owned by a client and friend. Lincoln currently lives and works in the redwood forest of Mill Valley, where he moved at the end of 2020 with his wife and 3-year-old daughter.  The firm’s staff, like everyone else who has the good fortune to do so in these difficult times, also currently work from home. Where the firm will reconvene when circumstances allow is an open question for now, and Lincoln is embracing the moment to embark on what is, for a city kid, a grand wilderness adventure! 15 minutes from The City, of course.
