Candelaria Design Associates, LLC

We are celebrating our 25th anniversary this month! Founded in 1999 by architect Mark Candelaria, today he and his partners Tim Mathewson and Evelyn Jung lead the firm in custom residential and boutique design. Founded on the principle that the design process should be a collaborative venture, we work closely with our clients, design team and vendors from start to finish and often form bonds that last beyond the scope of the project. While most of our projects are located across Scottsdale and Paradise Valley, Arizona, today our custom designs have been built across the country and even worldwide! Looking forward, we are staying true to the values that have made us leaders in Arizona’s design world over the past 25 years. Candelaria Design is all about inspiring living, so we will continue our lifestyle tours to Europe, our monthly podcast "Inspiring Living", and release our second coffee table design/recipe book “More Mark Candelaria Homes”. Mark loves cooking for clients and vendors, and the whole team is actively involved in designing facilities for various charities and giving back to the community through service time and Board Membership. Candelaria Design is dedicated to inspiring living in the community, both in and beyond the home. Follow along for inspiration, industry updates by following us on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, YouTube & LinkedIn. https://lnkd.in/gvr48bHQ

Step inside this incredible French-style home in the heart of Arcadia, AZ. We designed this over 20 years ago, but good design never goes out of style.

Mark was honored to be the guest on the "Design Meets Life" Podcast based in Barcelona, Spain! Co-hosted by designer Kelli Ellis, the Co-Host of our recent TV series, Extravagant Spaces on The Design Network and YouTube! We talked about several design and travel topics, including one that is very pertinent in today’s world. In this world of hurry, hurry, hurry and now with our homes soon being created by AI it is my belief that the next shift will be in creating homes that feed our soul and resonate with our souls and allows us to live our life in connection with the creator! You can feel the difference between a home created quickly by CAD and a home created with the collaboration of souls - the soul of my client in collaboration with the souls of the architect and designer and celebrating this journey of creation that then results in a home that is a vessel for enhancing and inspiring our souls and the way we live every day!

After eleven years here at Candelaria Design, Principal Meredith Thomson, AIA has made the difficult decision to go out on her own next month. As the Candelaria Design Team supports her professional growth, our personal connection remains strong. Meredith will be missed and will always be someone who inspires us!
