Kanner Architects: 11 Projects

Kanner Architects have created their own approach to designing Modernist buildings and interiors that relate to their environments and exhibit distinct personalities. The firm works internationally, applying the optimism and adventurousness of its Southern California roots to the conditions indigenous to each site. Stephen H. Kanner, president and director of design, guides his staff in a fusion of structure, volume, material and color that results in buildings that are light, both in sense of weight and in their ability to find and exploit natural light. In this survey of 11 projects, Kanner Architects demonstrate the harmony of proportion and easy flow of space that marks the firm's aesthetic. Stephen Kanner speaks with a distinctive language, solving problems with an approach always mindful of context.
