Benjamin Wey Email & Phone Number

Benjamin Wey is an architect, building enthusiast, and former construction foreman, who has been enthralled with buildings and construction for as long as he can remember. When he was a kid, he used to spend hours every day after school building elaborate earthen structures for his Hot Wheels (not unlike Mike Reynolds’ Earthships), and as he got older, he developed a love for design and architecture. Through several apprenticeships, Benjamin Wey was able to learn basic carpentry and use that as a springboard to becoming a foreman for a construction company. While studying for his Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Benjamin Wey worked for a variety of different companies, but always with the intention of gaining experience for the day he would branch off and build his own construction-consulting firm.In 1988, Benjamin Wey applied to his University's graduate program and was immediately accepted. After graduating with his Master's degree in Architecture, he worked for a variety of construction and design corporations before eventually working for his soon-to-be father-in-law at Donofrio Construction in southern California. Benjamin Wey worked for him as a Construction Foreman for three years, during which time, Wey married his wife Lorraine and relocated to San Francisco to manage the Donofrio’s building projects in the Bay Area. In 2005, he finally felt prepared to go out on his own and founded A1 Construction Consulting. As the sole proprietor and primary consultant of A1, Benjamin Wey is able to do the work he has dreamed of doing since he was in college. Today, Benjamin Wey both consults on building design and construction, as well as drafts his own ideas as a contract architect. Benjamin Wey has never experienced a career this rewarding, and he hopes to remain in this business for years to come.Specialties: All aspects of commercial and residential construction and building.
