Paul McClean and Michael Webb explore the art of liveable modernism in their latest Rizzoli book
Hollywood’s most sought-after architectural firm, McClean Design, has become synonymous with the quintessential California lifestyle, where open spaces, natural light and breathtaking vistas define modern luxury. In Contemporary Living by McClean Design, Paul McClean and Michael Webb present fifteen of the firm’s most striking residences completed over the past five years, showcasing an impeccable blend of rigorous design, elegance and liveability.
From a remodelled classical mansion in San Francisco to serene waterfront retreats and ethereal homes that appear to hover above Los Angeles, each project is a masterclass in seamless indoor-outdoor living. Known for its signature approach to maximising views, McClean Design crafts sanctuaries that dissolve the boundaries between architecture and nature. Expansive glass walls, refined materials and a restrained yet warm aesthetic characterise these spaces, creating homes that are both dramatic and deeply inviting.
Founded in 2000, McClean Design has remained committed to a philosophy of minimalism that enhances, rather than restricts, the experience of a home. The firm’s signature use of wood strip flooring, bespoke cabinetry and natural stone infuses warmth into the spare, modernist framework, while neutral-toned soft furnishings complement the relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere. The book also includes architectural floor plans and insightful essays, offering an in-depth look into the themes that shape the studio’s work. With its striking imagery and thoughtful narratives, the book focuses on the enduring appeal of contemporary architecture that is both bold and deeply personal. www.rizzoliusa.com
