Martinkovic Milford Architects

What Martinkovic Milford Architects does

Martinkovic Milford Architects (MMA) is a San Francisco-based boutique architecture firm founded in 2001 by principals Justin Martinkovic and Brian Milford, operating with 11-50 employees out of 101 Montgomery Street in the Financial District. The firm delivers full-service architectural design and interior design services across four primary verticals: restaurant and hospitality, healthcare and wellness, retail and commercial interiors, and high-end residential. Its core capability is producing detailed, permit-ready construction documentation — quality high enough that the City of San Francisco's planning department uses MMA submissions as illustrative examples — combined with what the firm describes as a hospitality-forward design approach and radical ownership of project outcomes.

MMA's client base is concentrated in enterprise accounts including Salesforce (global real estate), Sutter Health (Innovation Center on a pier over San Francisco Bay), One Medical (60+ clinic locations nationwide), Away Travel (multi-state rollout), solidcore (nationwide fitness studio rollout), Tia Health, and Via Aurelia / Back Home Hospitality at Mission Rock, alongside a smaller book of high-end residential commissions. The firm has completed 60+ restaurant projects, 250+ medical offices, 175+ residences, and 32+ retail spaces over 25 years, with Principal Justin Martinkovic licensed as an architect in 21 states enabling national service delivery.

Revenue is generated on a project-fee basis for professional services, with pricing quote-based by scope and complexity and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market model is principal-led direct enterprise engagement supplemented by client referrals and trade press visibility; the firm holds no outside funding, no parent company, and reports no M&A activity. Marketing channels are limited primarily to the firm's own website, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, and email outreach.
