The New Classicists: Appleton & Associates, Inc. Architects by Images Publishing Group. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781920744601.

The design work of Marc Appletons practice is a collaborative process with its clients, inspired by and responsive to their specific desires and needs. Frequently, it draws upon the time-honoured traditions of vernacular architecture, subtly reinterpreting them to evoke a presence of the past. The firm strives to avoid a repetitiously personalised style and is committed to the idea that architecture is a craft rather than an art, a process rather than an object. Appleton agrees with fellow Californian architect William Wurstes view that architecture is for people the picture frame, and not the picture. Also available in the series: William T.
