Mark Candelaria Homes Book
We are thrilled to announce our first of three books is out!
We are working together with Schiffer Publishing to create a two-set book showcasing our Candelaria Design creations over the decades and a third book focusing on the Lifestyle aspect of Candelaria Design! The first book was released mid-February 2023 and features 12 standout homes built in the past decade over 232 beautiful photo-filled pages. Our second beautiful coffee table book is in the works and will feature our firm’s early years, with another 12 designs built between 1999-2009. Each project chapter is accompanied by sketches, personal anecdotes from the clients and companies involved, and a special recipe paired for each home/client created by Mark Candelaria.
Available everywhere books are sold!
“Arizona-based architect Mark Candelaria is recognized for his timeless luxury designs and signature style rooted in classical form and functionality. In Mark Candelaria Homes, the architect presents 12 new projects and pulls back the curtain to share the stories behind them. Each project is accompanied by full-color photographs, floor plans, and sketches.
The book brims with design ideas for every taste, from a Spanish colonial-influenced house on axis with views of Arizona’s Mummy Mountain, to a reimagined historic English Tudor, to a modernist home inspired by ranch haciendas. Candelaria describes the design process with many personal anecdotes, illustrating that the design of a home should be fun and result not just in a set of plans but a backdrop to living one’s best life.
An avid traveler and hobbyist chef, Candelaria includes a recipe with each house, many times prepared for or with the client as a grand finale.”
