Michael Hennessey designs quiet architecture that serves the activities of life, as evidenced in his addition to an existing bungalow in San Carlos, California, that made a connection to the outdoors an integral part of family routine. Hennessey’s work is site specific and responsive to climate, and he aims to create projects that contribute to a long-lasting built environment. hennesseyarchitect.com
