Overview

This intelligent and engaging volume tells the story of one of the world's most renowned architectural firms, and a major creative force behind the changing face of San Francisco's Bay Area. The Architecture of Ratcliff begins by looking at how Walter Ratcliff - the firm's founder - made his name with designs for the Arts and Crafts residences at the University of California at Berkley and Mills College campuses, as well as how the firm established itself as a signature contributor to the look of the East Bay. It then goes on to explore how the traditions and ideas have continued to evolve through the generations. Now run by Walter Ratcliff's grandson, the firm was named 'Firm of the Year 2005' by the American Institute of Architects California Council.
