Spacecraft Group is one of the only firms in Southern California combining restaurant interior architecture with licensed general contracting under one roof. We design and build restaurants in Los Angeles from the ground up, handling architectural plans, commercial kitchen layout, permit expediting and full construction under a single contract.
bar & nightclub construction
From intimate cocktail bars in Silver Lake to large-format nightclubs in Hollywood, we specialize in the complex structural, acoustic and MEP requirements of entertainment venues. Our bar and nightclub design-build team manages everything from concept to certificate of occupancy.
commercial kitchen contractors
We design and build commercial kitchens that meet LA County Health Department requirements. Our commercial kitchen contractors work directly with your chef and equipment vendors to build a kitchen engineered for your menu, service volume and health code compliance from day one.
permit expediting los angeles
Permit delays are the single largest cause of cost overruns on hospitality projects in Los Angeles. Our in-house permit expediting team navigates LADBS, LA County Health Department, LAFD and CalOSHA. We know what reviewers look for and design drawings to avoid common correction triggers before submission.
retail store design & build
From boutique retail stores in Melrose to multi-location rollouts across Southern California, Spacecraft Group provides retail interior architecture and commercial build-out services. We handle space planning, fixture coordination and full construction for retail environments, all managed in-house.
boutique hotel architecture
Spacecraft Group designs and renovates boutique hotels and lifestyle hospitality properties throughout Southern California. Our boutique hotel architecture team brings the same integrated design-build approach to hotel projects, delivering renovations that protect revenue during phased construction.
client experience
Having one firm handle our design, permits and construction cut our project timeline by nearly four months. The commercial kitchen was built exactly to our chef's specifications and approved by the health department on the first submission.
We had tried two other general contractors before Spacecraft. The difference was immediate. They understood nightclub construction at a level most firms do not. Acoustics, load capacities, the permit process. They knew everything.
The permit expediting alone was worth the entire engagement. They got our plan check approved in six weeks. Our previous project with a different team took eight months at the same building department.
