HISTORY

Established in 1997 by Nagy Bakhoum, Obelisk Architects was designed to be one thing, an architecture firm. The focus of the firm would be to collaborate with its clients to produce a combined vision that utilizes the most of the opportunity. The firm specializes in timeless architecture based on historic precedence and unique design solutions.  

A singularly focused business is a simple goal to create, but with the added incorporation of a firm with ethics, originality, creativity and excellent service, it became much. Obelisk is a focal point to the process of design, construction, and hub to all the spokes of the process. The firm has since completed over 300 projects, ranging from small residential remodels to complex multi-million dollar estates.

The primary emphasis is high-end commercial & residential projects, focusing on specialty design challenges for retail, ecclesiastical, and residential clients. The firm has been located in the South Bay, Torrance, making a point of being a part of the community and visible with-in it. We are adept at customizing our services to meet our clients’ specific needs.
