Architects Susan Stoltz and David Kau have collaborated on projects for over fifteen years as Stoltz Kau Architects, and formerly as Project Architect and Principal at Fernau and Hartman Architects in Berkeley, CA. We have specialized in designing innovative solutions uniquely suited to client and site. The starting point for each design is a rigorous study of site, client needs, local climate and building tradition. Our work focuses on natural day lighting strategies, color, material juxtaposition, a dynamic use of space, and a respect for the landscape and environment.
