 David Jameson: Designing In Between the
Lines
The architecture of David Jameson, FAIA, uses kaleidoscopic views,
orientations, and materials to form revelatory residential experiences.
This experiential Modernism is conceptually extroverted and bold,
twisting and elevating pavilions and planes into witty turns of
view to create fresh notions of residential placemaking.

 Cedar and Stone Create a Modern Park Community
Center
Berkeley, Calif.-based Marcy Wong Donn Logan Architects designed the 6,400
square-foot community center at the 23-acre Orange Memorial Park in South San
Francisco. The
Parks and Recreation Department of the City of South San Francisco was the
client on the project. The new community center is a pavilion-style facility
that blends with the surrounding landscape and recreational facilities. The
materials combine sustainable Western Red Cedar and Alaskan Yellow Cedar with
natural basalt stone and glass for light, transparency, and horizontality.
A sense of naturalness is evoked from the materials.
