Shaping the World as a Home: The Houses and Gardens of Erik Evens showcases the work of one of California’s most renowned architects, celebrated for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to create complete, immersive living environments. Drawing inspiration from classical architectural traditions while adapting to the contemporary indoor-outdoor lifestyle of California, Evens’ projects reflect a harmonious blend of timeless elegance and modern practicality.
This richly illustrated volume spans diverse stylistic approaches, including a Spanish Colonial Revival estate overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Malibu, a farmhouse-inspired residence set against Southern California’s golden hills, and a ranch house nestled among Montecito’s ancient oak trees. Featuring natural materials like wood, stone, and brick, Evens’ designs exude subtle luxury, with nature itself playing an integral role in complementing and enhancing his architectural vision.
For admirers of architects like Gil Schafer, Bobby McAlpine, and Ray Booth, this book offers a compelling glimpse into Evens’ philosophy and contributions to contemporary classical architecture.
