SAN FRANCISCO—CITY BY DESIGN: an architectural perspective of the greater San Francisco Bay Area (Panache Partners, 2009), by Brian Carabet and John Shand, is the seventh edition of an exciting hardcover coffee-table book series. Its six chapters—Built to Play and Stay, Urban Living, City Projects, Industry Leaders, Sustaining Growth and City Futures—afford readers the rare opportunity to peek inside and around the perimeter of nearly 60 structures, unassuming or prominently placed, that create the brilliantly complex urban and suburban landscapes where daily life unfolds. The book showcases more than 250 pages of the creative designs—both built and in progress—of locally based firms, including world-renowned entities such as HOK, SmithGroup and BAR as well as midsized organizations like Mark Cavagnero, William Duff and Form4.
