JohnManiscalco的作品是由一个非常干净但温暖的建筑表达来定义的，它将重点放在空间和光线的相互作用上。在许多方面，最终细节的简单性掩盖了空间的复杂性，以及制作感觉安静和直观的东西所需要的工作。虽然客户可能不关注日常的设计流程或开发文档的严格性，但他们希望客户在自己的家中看到这种严格性的好处。
Their work isdefined by a very clean but warm architectural expssion which places focus onthe interplay of space and light. In many ways, the simplicity of the finaldetails belies the complexity of the assemblies and the work that goes intomaking something that feels quiet and intuitive. While the clients may not befocused on the day to day design process or the rigor of their development anddocumentation, they would like to think they see the benefit of that rigor asthey live in the homes.
