Decades of Design.
Working out of their garage apartment, Suzanne and Martin began the San Clemente studio in 1997 with one project from Walt Disney Imagineering. A nice project to begin with, but one that rapidly needed additional team members. Joined shortly by Harry, Stephanie and Cody, the team quickly grew in its collaborative spirit. That collaboration formally established Redmond Schwartz Mark Design in 1999 by merging with Harry’s architectural practice in Dallas… beginning two decades of working at the intersection of graphics and architecture.
In 1999, the studio moved out of the garage apartment and purchased the San Clemente design studio. This location was the first building designed by Korean architect Richard Y. Lim, a protege of Frank Lloyd Wright. Lim’s wife worked as a seamstress for the Wright family to pay for the internship at Taliesin West. Built in 1948, the structure was the first modernist building in San Clemente.
