office42 is an architecture firm founded in 2007 by the husband and wife team Stephanie and Ben Ragle in Los Angeles. It was started on the premise that good design, innovation, and creative solutions should be available to all. After living and working in Europe, India, and New York, they moved back to Los Angeles to synthesize and put into action these diverse experiences.

Over the last decade, office42 has built the design studio we want to be: rooted in both good design and in social justice.  office42 focuses on not just the modern spaces we create but also the community of clients we empower through design.  office42 believes that design should be impactful.

office42 works on all types of projects, residential and commercial.  Through our projects, we form queries not initially obvious and provide innovative solutions that meet the needs and budget of the client. We enjoy the problem solving and collaboration that we experience with every project and each client and enjoy helping people design their lives.
