| DESIGN INFLUENCES | Applebaum was personally influenced by some of Modernist architecture's greatest names. He studied under architectural visionary Paolo Soleri, was mentored by the late Calvin C. Straub FAIA, professor of the University of Southern California and Arizona State University Schools of Architecture, and became a friend of the late Cliff May, the master of the California Ranch House. | |||
| DESIGN PHILOSOPHY | Taking the California Modern ideal of indoor-outdoor living in a highly individualized manner, Applebaum's timeless designs spring from Modernism's ideal of truth in function and materials. His Zen-like approach to the site respects nature. Believing that real architecture grows out of the land, he integrates his structures into the surroundings so that they blend harmoniously with the natural environment. | |||
| DESIGN STYLE | While his architectural style has best been described as Southern California Modernist, Applebaum's designs defy categorization. His elegant, stylish and sophisticated homes set the standard for contemporary California architecture. He has been called a designer of a "masterwork of craftsmanship, detail and drama" by Michael John Pittas, dean of the Parsons School of Design; and creator of the "quintessential San Diego home" by architecture critic and author Dirk Sutro. | |||
| DESIGN ELEMENTS | An Applebaum home takes on a sculptural form as cantilevered roof lines, clerestory glass and transparent interiors come together. Exposed structural steel and wooden beams support soaring ceilings that appear to float in space. Natural wood, concrete block and large expanses of glass embrace the outdoors, creating a sense of freedom. Interior spaces open into one another, creating an intriguing interplay between light and shadow. |
