McClean s second Rizzoli book explores sixteen ultra-modern residences completed over the past five years. Rigorous, elegant, and impeccably detailed, McClean s houses are the embodiment of livable modernism and set the stage for every aspect of California living. The residences range from a remodeled classical mansion in San Francisco, to waterfront houses and serene oases that seem to float above the flats of Los Angeles, with vistas extending from mountains to the ocean. Since its founding in 2000, McClean Design s focus has been on creating home sanctuaries that open to the best views. From the structure to plantings, lighting, and furnishings, there s a free flow of space, through the house and out to the horizon. The quiet authority of McClean s houses exerts a calming influence. There s a sense of formality and spareness in the architecture, a reduction to essentials, serving not as a constraint, but as a foil to the landscape and the relaxed character of the interior spaces; wood strip floors, cabinetry, and natural stones add warmth, as do the soft furnishings in neutral tones. The book includes floor plans and explanatory essays and notes by the architects on common themes throughout their work.

This collection of visionary residences takes us on a tour of the height in luxury, designed to accommodate all amenities available from the indoor gym and hair salon to the movie theatre, champagne vault and wine cellar, cigar room, and wellness room. California Living looks at McClean s rise to prominence, from his first Bird Streets home in the Hollywood Hills to houses that drew attention from the likes of fashion designer Calvin Klein and the record-setting Bel Air home of Beyonce and Jay Z. In addition to incorporating water in all of his designs, he makes extensive use of glass to eliminate the barrier between the indoors/outdoors. His sleek designs seamlessly integrate the outdoors taking advantage of the spectacular views and landscapes. After an illustrated introduction, the portfolio section of twenty-four magnificent ultra-modern homes describes each house in detail with sketches and site plans, explaining the architect s work. McClean offers his reflections on these beautiful projects and the design strategies behind their creation, all completed in the past fifteen years. McClean Design has grown into one of the leading contemporary residential design firms in the fashionable areas of Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, with projects throughout the Western United States and beyond to Hawaii and British Columbia
