Launched in 2021, Chris Dorsey Architecture is an innovative architecture & design practice based in the Downtown LA Arts District. From designing bespoke restaurant and retail spaces to large-scale adaptive reuse and industrial redevelopment projects, we are excited to work with our clients to design to, and realize their project’s full potential.

What excites us most about architecture is the opportunity to take a challenging site or idea and unlock its hidden potential. Every project and site has its constraints and complications, but finding ways to harness that uniqueness can often lead to inventive design opportunities that may not have revealed themselves otherwise. We believe in the strength of collaboration, creative exploration, and always strive to harness every opportunity we can to create something fun and inspiring that our clients will love.  

Chris Dorsey is a registered architect & artist with more than 15 years of experience across a diverse range of projects. He holds a Master of Architecture from The Pratt Institute in New York City, and a Bachelor of Architecture from Southern Polytechnic State University (now Kennesaw State University) in Georgia.
