GRAHAM Architecture was founded by Architect Carlton Graham in Laguna Beach, California. The firm provides full service Architecture, Interior Design and Construction Management professional services.

The firms work explores the relationship between the dwelling and the landscape. Large windows and sliding doors are often used to frame views and visually blend the indoors and outdoors with nature. Our primary goal is to create buildings that remain timeless, have a positive effect on people’s lives and create a comfortable place to live. We do not have a style of Architecture, each project is a unique response to our clients lifestyle and a particular site. Our design work is often characterized by simple forms clad in natural materials. The result is casual elegance that embodies a sense of warmth and luxury. Our work has been described as “warm modern” with an emphasis on natural materials such as wood and stone.

Carlton was educated at the University of Texas at Austin, where he earned a degree in Architecture. He worked for several years in Los Angeles with award

winning Architects like Frank Israel and Mark Mack before moving to Laguna Beach to open GRAHAM Architecture. Carlton is a licensed Architect and is registered in California and Texas. He has worked for over 15 years in the profession.
