Jobs


Employer: Andrea Lucas Associates

Title: Principal and Founder

City: Berkeley

State: California

Country: United States

Notes: Later the firm was called Sites Pacific. She employed 3 to 6 people. The work was typically a mix of small projects. I did hundreds of residential jobs for middle-class clients, occasionally new homes. I did many technically challenging jobs on steep sites, and developed a reputation for technical understanding ? for grading, drainage, irrigation, wood, concrete and stone work. I especially enjoyed my wood designs; trellises and decks. I did gardens for houses designed by historical Craftsman-era architects who were locally renowned; John Hudson Thomas, Charles Maybeck, Julia Morgan, and later architect Henry May, and design-builder; Eichler.
