About Us

Mercedes Corbell Design + Architecture (MCD+A) is a small Oakland firm specializing in green design for residential and commercial environments.

Originally called Mercedes Corbell Design, founder and architect Mercedes Corbell renamed the firm to its current title in 2002. Since focusing on sustainable design in 2000, Mercedes Corbell Design + Architecture has been the architectural firm for a number of green projects, including the renovation and expansion of existing homes, outdoor spaces, and commercial spaces.

The choice of materials, products, and building systems are key to achieving a green project and we are committed to working with our clients to achieve their “green goals.” Seated in an art studio converted from a 1920’s commercial building, we are surrounded by artists, designers, and construction projects in our rapidly changing neighborhood.
