MISSION STATEMENT
"There will never be great architects or great architecture without great patrons."
At Golden Empire Design, our belief and approach concerning every commission, whether it be a Transit Facility Bus Stop (GET Bus Stop, NW Promenade, 1997), a highly visible City Monument (Bakersfield City Sign, 1999), a custom residence or a state-of-the-art Financial Institution, is to respond directly to the client’s needs and desires. Architecture is not and was never meant to be about the Architect, yet to yield to the requests of the owner and address those issues in a unique and profound way. We intentionally practice no particular style, choosing instead to approach every project from the perspective of a totally clean canvas and respond to the individuality of each particular owner and locality.
"In the elder days of Art, builders wrought with greatest care each minute and unseen part; for God sees everywhere."
"A doctor can bury his mistakes but an architect can only advise his clients to plant vines."
