SANDBOX

Located in Truckee, California, near the shores of Lake Tahoe, SANDBOX is an acclaimed, full-service design and engineering studio. Since opening its doors in March 2001, SANDBOX has built a strong reputation for its work in custom residential design, engineering, commercial projects, and interiors. The firm collaborates closely with two affiliates: MOXIE, specializing in interior design, and SDBX, focused on graphic design. With a multi-disciplinary team made up of professionals from a variety of backgrounds, SANDBOX takes pride in delivering creative solutions that are both enduring and unique.

At the heart of SANDBOX’s philosophy is a commitment to client service. Innovative design is a core value, but even more important is delivering results that meet the real-world needs of those we work with. Every project is approached with a goal to create spaces that are visually engaging, practical in use, environmentally responsive, and delivered within the client’s timeframe and budget. These results come from a thoughtful design process, meticulous attention to detail, and disciplined project management.

Designing and building a custom home is a deeply personal journey—and SANDBOX works to make that journey approachable, collaborative, and rewarding. The firm combines professionalism with a relaxed, friendly demeanor, always taking the time to listen and educate clients along the way. Client participation is encouraged throughout the design process, and the integration of in-house engineering gives SANDBOX the ability to develop creative, cost-conscious construction solutions. With a track record of successful projects, the firm has built strong ties with local planning departments, design review boards, and trusted contractors and suppliers throughout the region.

Over the years, SANDBOX has earned widespread recognition for its distinctive work and outstanding service, both throughout the Lake Tahoe area and beyond.
