In-House Architect & Engineer
Architectural design and structural engineering under the same roof as construction — one team designs, permits, and builds.
High-end residential remodels and commercial projects in the heart of Apple country — precision work for precision-minded clients.
Most projects stall in the handoff between designer, engineer, and builder. JMG eliminates it: architectural design, structural calculations, Title 24 energy compliance, and permit-ready construction drawings are produced in-house and coordinated directly with the crews who will build them.
In Cupertino and across Santa Clara County, JMG delivers architect & engineering under California Contractor's License #1007864 — permitted, inspected, and personally overseen by owner Jerry Guinn. From custom estate architecture in Atherton to engineered tenant improvements for national retail brands, every design decision is made with real construction knowledge — so what gets drawn is exactly what gets built, on budget and on schedule, under California Contractor's License #1007864.
Cupertino remodels are driven by families and its school district — kitchen expansions, garage conversions, and ADUs for multigenerational living top the list. The city's online permit portal keeps submittals moving, and our in-house trades keep occupied-family-home projects clean, quiet, and on schedule.

Architect & Engineering in Cupertino — FAQ
Not with JMG. Design, structural engineering, and permitting happen in-house — one contract and one accountable team from first sketch to final inspection, which removes the most common source of delays and change orders.
