Luxe interviews us on the French Style Fitzgerald Estate

Luxe Magazine interviews principals Mark Candelaria & Meredith Thomson about this incredible French Manor estate we designed for former AZ Cardinal Larry Fitzgerald.

“Mark takes an artist’s approach to his profession. He is a sculptor who converts visions and ideas onto a set of drawings that evolve into a three-dimensional structure—a home. He performs his craft with intuition and precision, while emphasizing the principles of classical form and functionality.” - Larry Fitzgerald

Historic Central Ave. Remodel

This historic house on Central Avenue was built in 1947 and was loved by the current owner for years, as it sits on a large corner lot along the city's only tree-lined Bridle Path. While the home had beautiful bones they wanted to preserve, a lot of work was needed. The homeowner/client is a contractor, so any improvements made to the house needed to respect the original architecture versus tearing it down. We wanted to keep the existing materials and match any new materials, like brick/cedar shingles/and stucco needed. New additions like a pool, fire pit area, detached garage, laundry, office and covered patio were added to enhance and tie the property together and make for a fabulous family home!
