Founded by Michael Breland and Peter Harper, Breland – Harper is a Los Angeles-based design firm that provides interdisciplinary services across residential, commercial, mixed-use, and hospitality projects. The integration of architectural, interior, and landscape design within our studio is a founding tenet of our practice, rooted in the desire to cultivate comprehensive experiences with subtle transitions between disciplines. With particular expertise in adaptive reuse and historic preservation, our newly constructed work is also handled with the same sensitivity and awareness.

Breland-Harper’s practice begins with people – our clients, our team, our collaborators – and nature – the force that grounds and amplifies, adding depth, nuance, color, and light to all that we do. Whether at the scale of a disused factory, a house, a garden, or a chair, our work is rooted in a set of preoccupations with history, place, proportion, restraint, craft, ritual, and light, all in an effort to produce enduring design. By being open and receptive to the world and working to understand each site's particular spirit, we craft architecture that seeks to reinforce the culture of a place and to provide a grounding force to daily life. In this way, the range of projects in which we engage allow us to convey broader ideas about how we hope to live and what we value.
