David C. Martin was the third-generation design partner for AC
Martin Architects. This is a portfolio of significant projects that
were designed during the period of 1970s to the 2010s. It includes
a number of unpublished photos of award-winning architecture. The
treatise includes many of David’s conceptual sketches, his
thoughts about design philosophy and describes working relations
with his partner Chris Martin and other team members within the
dynamics of a large architectural firm. He describes the culture of
the firm and how the practice evolved through the generations. The
scale of the work ranges from individual houses to 75-story towers
— from houses, churches, aerospace, universities to corporate
towers. What differentiates this monograph from most is that it is
a personal expression, illustrated by lush photographs from LA’s
best architectural photographers, and includes personal sketches
and watercolours that chronical the design process. It deals with
teamwork, family, craftsmanship, and the joy of architectural
practice.
