Meadowlark Design + Build is a licensed, full-service general contractor serving San Diego and Sonoma Counties.
Founded by Michael Larkins, Meadowlark brings together thoughtful design, skilled craftsmanship, and a practical understanding of how things ought to be built.
Our particular affection is for Midcentury Modern architecture—its clean lines, honest materials, and quiet harmony between form and function. But good design belongs to no single era. From the enduring character of a Victorian to the handcrafted warmth of a Craftsman, from a careful restoration to new construction, we approach every project with respect for its architecture, its setting, and the people who call it home.
Michael brings more than 30 years of experience in construction and project management, along with a degree in architectural design. His work is guided by an appreciation for proportion, material, and detail, balanced by the practical demands of building well. He believes that beauty and utility are not competing interests, but natural companions.
At Meadowlark, we believe in doing things thoughtfully, managing projects personally, and treating a client's vision and budget with equal respect.
No project too large to deserve our attention, nor too small to deserve our care.
Services
Good design respects what came before and makes room for what comes next.
From a single room to an entirely new home, Meadowlark approaches each project with an appreciation for proportion, material, and place. We build with purpose, work with care, and believe the best results are as practical as they are beautiful.
