eileen gordon
architect
Eileen’s reputation for imagination, attention to detail, and craftsmanship comes through whether the desired aesthetic is traditional period accuracy or a more contemporary expression. Working with top caliber artisans and fabricators around the world, she has been designing award-winning homes throughout the San Francisco Bay Area since 2004.
Eileen’s nomadic childhood—living in and traveling through Europe, the US, Asia, and North Africa—cultivated her fascination with the differences in each culture’s buildings and cities, and how architecture can both reinforce and challenge our social and civic expectations.
Eileen was profiled in California Home + Design and her work has also been featured in Luxe Interiors + Design: San Francisco, Gentry Home, California Home + Design, and Luxury Home Quarterly. She has been recognized by the ICAA Julia Morgan Awards and SARA NY National Awards.

education
At the University of Notre Dame, Eileen received a classical education in Beaux-Arts architecture, including a year at the University’s Rome campus. Through instruction in the history and theory of architecture, watercolor, and studio design, this experience develops the technical understanding necessary to merge the formal aspects of our architectural past with the requirements of our modern lives.
