FAQ
Does 121 Design Build Inc. provide construction services?
Yes. Full-service construction from design through the job site, with the same Encino / Los Angeles team.
Direct answer
Yes. Design through construction, one Encino team.
Yes, 121 Design Build Inc. offers full-service construction, managing every step from initial design to final construction, ensuring quality and efficiency throughout the entire project.
Architectural design and the job site stay with the same Encino / Los Angeles team. You are not handing a finished set to a separate builder.
Quality and efficiency are the aim of that one-team path. On-time, on-budget delivery is the aim too — not a guarantee, because City of Los Angeles reviews still shape the calendar. This is not legal advice.
Three common setups
Full-service construction, design-only, or GC-only.
Full-service construction
Yes. 121 manages every step from initial design to final construction. The same Encino team that designed the project builds it.
Design only, no construction
A traditional architecture firm produces drawings, then someone else builds. 121 does not stop at the set — construction is part of the same team.
GC-only, no design lead
A builder without a design lead constructs from someone else’s plans. 121 is not that shop — design and construction stay together.
Why it matters
Construction should follow drawings the same team produced.
When construction is split from design, details can drift and questions bounce between firms. When they are one team, the job site follows the drawings.
121 keeps that loop in Encino / Los Angeles: talk through the project, design it, coordinate permits, then build it. Full-service construction is the last step of the same path.
How we work
Conversation to construction, under one roof.
01
Conversation and brief
We talk through the project and review the lot or existing house so the brief is honest before design starts.
02
Design
The same team develops a design that can be permitted and built, not a set meant for a separate contractor.
03
Permits
We coordinate drawings and submittals with the City of Los Angeles. Approvals are never guaranteed.
04
Build
Yes — the same Encino team provides construction, so the job site follows the drawings through final construction.
Honest scope
What 121 actually does, and what we do not.
We do
Full-service construction from design through the job site
We take the project from conversation through design, permit coordination, and construction. Quality and efficiency are the aim of that path. On-time, on-budget delivery is the aim too — not a promise before the City reviews the work.
We do not
Design-only handoffs, legal advice, or guaranteed dates
We are not a design-only studio that hands you a set and walks away. We do not give legal advice. We do not guarantee City of Los Angeles approvals or a calendar date.
Call, or start with the lot.
If you want full-service construction with the same Encino / Los Angeles design-build team, start with a conversation or a lot check.
