| biography:
| Architect, born in New York City, New York, USA. He studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and established his own office in Berkeley, California (1902). He designed mostly Bay Area suburban houses and community projects, though his best-known works include the Palace of Fine Arts, San Francisco (1913–15). His uniquely inventive designs drew on various traditions and showed unusual diversity of form, scale, and materials. |
