## In the practice's own words
- "Design rooted in site, light, and materials."
- "A practice built around site, light, and material."
- "Luca Architecture believes every project carries its own set of needs and challenges. We start with the client's vision. We then let the site become integral to the concept design - letting light, space, and views shape a design that couldn't belong to anyone else."
- "Every project begins with the site itself its light, its contours, its materials and ends with a home or a space that could belong nowhere else."
