Peter Tangen

I worked in Hollywood for more than twenty years, and I lived in and loved architecture for all of it. I owned and fully restored John Lautner’s Tyler House, during that year-long restoration I rented Lautner’s famous Chemosphere residence. I spent some of my youth in a SF Neutra, and my uncle and twin brother are architects. You could say it’s part of who I am.

I’ve launching Shelter Visuals to expand my creativity in service of sophisticated clients that are focused on their individual brands and professional excellence.

I understand that when I’m working for you that I’m your brand ambassador. That responsibility extends to your clients, the quality of the imagery for the properties that you represent, and your most important asset…

Your Reputation

I’m also on your balance sheet. I respect and appreciate the investment that you make marketing your listings and I’m committed to delivering excellence at all times.

I do what I say I’m going to do.

I show up on-time, ready to produce great materials.

I stand behind the quality of my work.
