A warm welcome to new Larkspur Chamber Member Kirley Architects!

At Kirley Architects, we consider ourselves artists at heart. Led by Keith Kirley, a third-generation licensed architect with a master’s degree in Classical Architecture from the University of Notre Dame, our firm combines time-honored design principles with a thoughtful approach to modern living. Through hand-rendered watercolor imagery, we bring each vision to life, helping clients see the possibilities of their future spaces.

From highly customized residences to commercial projects, we take a comprehensive approach to architecture, guiding each project from initial concept through construction. We collaborate closely with clients, contractors, engineers, and designers to anticipate challenges, coordinate every detail, and deliver thoughtful, enduring results. As lifelong students of our craft, we remain committed to architectural excellence, collaboration, and mentoring the next generation of architects.

Outside of work, Keith serves on several design review boards in Marin County. He enjoys skiing, ice hockey, and fly fishing, and lives in Kentfield with his family.

Q: When did you decide that you wanted to be an Architect?
A: Not until much later, when I was twenty-five. There are many entrepreneurs in my family. My father had his own firm, so did his father (I’m a third generation architect). I wanted to own and run a business someday. Back then, I also wanted to be in France and be a hockey player. So when I went to Brown, I majored in Business Economics and played Division 1 hockey. - Keith Kirley, @kirleyarchitects

When the location is perfect, it's easy to see the potential.

That's exactly what drew these homeowners to a dated 1954 Kentfield residence. While the single-story home needed significant updates, its setting—and sweeping Mt. Tam views—made it an opportunity worth pursuing.

Working with their design team, they added a second story, expanded the living space and transformed the house into a modern home designed to make the most of its surroundings.

Take a look inside the transformation. Link in bio 🔗

At the core of our process is uncovering what makes each client distinct. With @kirleyarchitects, we honed in on their use of Beaux-Arts’ watercolor and hand-drawn work, blending timeless, classical influences with a modern architectural perspective.
