Leo Marmol, FAIA and Ron Radziner, FAIA teamed up to establish Los Angeles-based design/build firm Marmol Radziner in 1989. They quickly garnered a reputation for their innovative design, understanding of construction, and rigorous attention to detail. Taking on the role of the traditional “master builder,” their practice has since expanded to include architects, interior and landscape designers, metal fabricators, carpenters, furniture and cabinet-makers, and construction crew, allowing them to holistically conceive and meticulously realize their designs. Their love for the process of building and the essence of materials has led to new forays into prefabricated buildings and jewelry. The firm’s unique practice and commitment to design excellence was rewarded with the American Institute of Architects California Council’s 2004 Firm of the Year Award.

Experimental Ranch

Designed by architect Cliff May as his personal residence, the Experimental Ranch House is located in the Sullivan Canyon area of Los Angeles. Completed in 1952, the house is a unique example of the evolution of Ranch House design. The goal of the residential was to reinstate the original open plan layout while preserving the integrity of May’s exposed wood beam and rafter structure. The great room acts as the focal point of the house, containing the main living space and kitchen.

Altamira Residence

Overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the home occupies a 20-acre site along the coast of the Palos Verdes Peninsula. The project is a 15,500 square foot complex with a main residence, study, guesthouse, and garage. The design was inspired by the natural topography of the site and the client’s interest in geology.

Kaufmann Residence, Marmol Radziner | Remodelista Architect / Designer Directory
Kaufmann Residence

Located in Palm Springs, California, the Kaufmann House was originally designed by architect Richard Neutra in 1946. The restoration returned the residence to its initial form, size, and aesthetic integrity. An important challenge of the restoration was to re-create the dialogue between nature and sculpture, a difficult undertaking in an area that has grown from a rugged desert into a suburban residential neighborhood.

S and S Residence

The S & S Residence was designed for a young family in Venice, CA. To take advantage of the narrow lot, the design uses a series of screens and walls that ensure privacy from the street but allow openness within the site. A gray plaster façade catches shadows from the trees and contrasts with the multicolored, reclaimed wood siding of the southwest wall.

Long Valley Ranch

This vacation home is set on the crest of a grassy knoll in Mendocino County. The goal was to preserve and enhance the natural beauty of the 160-acre property by siting the retreat in a careful and unobtrusive manner. The 10-module home forms an L-shaped plan, framing views of a canopy of mature oak trees to the south and east.

The Accelerated School
