Luxury Residential • Hospitality • Development
Built to impress.
Delivered without compromise.
We guide private owners and hospitality teams through design, construction, and final delivery with a rigorous eye on budget, craft, and schedule certainty.
Michael Chandler
With over 20 years of executive construction leadership, I have managed and delivered more than $500 million in ultra-luxury residential, hospitality, and civil projects across six global regions — from California's coastline to the Caribbean.
As Owner of MC Design, I bring a rare combination of architectural sensitivity and rigorous project management to every engagement. My portfolio spans Discovery Land Company developments, private island estates, alpine retreats, and complex coastal restorations.
Known for old-world craftsmanship standards and a modern execution methodology, I personally curate every trade partner, material selection, and milestone — ensuring on-time, on-budget delivery without compromising design intent.
"Great architecture is not just built; it is rigorously orchestrated. We don't construct buildings; we construct the reality of a vision."
