Mark English Architects believes every home is a prototype, developed in collaboration with the client, landscape, topography, climate, and cultural considerations. in Situ: Unique Homes Crafted for California Living invites readers into seven of the firm’s residences to learn more about the studio’s approach to architecture and design.
Landscape and climate play a vital role in every Mark English project, with buildings and spaces designed to celebrate their California location, whether it’s the city, coast, or mountains. Each residential design is a sensitive and creative response to the site and environment and reflects the firm’s inherent understanding of the Golden State’s relaxed indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The practice draws on the California vernacular of open-plan living, light-filled spaces, and natural materials to blur the boundaries of inside and outside, and embeds every design with a layer of artistry to create meaningful homes for their residents.
This beautifully presented monograph features seven outstanding homes, illustrated with colour photography, renders, plans, drawings, scale models, and site photographs that showcase Mark English Architects’ design and construction process and reveal how the firm crafts these unique homes for California living.
