Profile: The Little House on the Trailer Owner/Designer Stephen Marshall

Owner/designer Stephen Marshall began his building career in 1973, designing and constructing homes in West Marin. In the mid 1980s he shifted his focus to custom cabinetry and design – returning to construction three years ago with the birth of the Little House on the Trailer company. The Little House on the Trailer is a distillation of those years honing his craft, as well as a forum for continuing the engaging work of working closely with customers to optimize their design visions.

Steve is a design enabler, helping others to realize something tangible that meets their use needs and aesthetic aspirations. Unlike many architects, he is not afraid to let the customer’s taste and direction lead the way.
