About

Domani Architecture was founded in 1999 by Fabio Rigo de Righi. Based in Los Angeles, CA, our approach is grounded in crafting spaces that are personal to our clients while maintaining an unsurpassed level of service.

Fabio’s interest in architecture on all scales is defined by his upbringing in Italy and extensive travel. His design is driven by consideration for detail; the large and diverse urban scale, as well as, the most intimate of spaces. With over 30 years experience drafting and building, we have gained a uniquely personal and in-depth sense of architectural fundamentals.

The mission has always been to provide the best possible service with the highest level of integrity. Our work is driven by the belief that every client is an individual and their home should be a reflection of their lifestyle. Both the Architecture and design are given equal consideration and care in order to create something natural and authentic. While considering a new build, what existed before and who will inhabit a space will always form the foundation for our plan. A close relationship with all of our clients helps us gain the knowledge needed to create a functional and beautiful space.
