Born in Tel Aviv, Mary is a goddess of modern design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before making her mark on the design industry, Mary was the U.S. Correspondent of <em>Globes<\/em>, the largest and oldest financial newspaper in Israel. During this period, she lived in New York City and interviewed some of the most inspiring figures of our time. After meeting her husband and moving to Silicon Valley, the couple bought their first home, and Mary fell head over heels in love with home design. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2004 Mary founded her Palo Alto, California-based boutique architecture and interior design firm, immediately gaining notoriety with her design of an ultra-modern residence. A project which defined her as a leader in minimalistic contemporary architecture. Read on to meet Mary Maydan and be inspired by her beautiful designs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-meet-mary-maydan-of-maydan-architects-in-the-lh-design-questionnaire\"><strong>Meet <em>Mary Maydan<\/em> of <em>Maydan Architects<\/em> in the Lh Design Questionnaire<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"947\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Mary-Maydan_Photo-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects.jpg\" alt=\"Mary Maydan, Principal &amp; Founder of Maydan Architects\" class=\"wp-image-74387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Mary-Maydan_Photo-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Mary-Maydan_Photo-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><figcaption><em>Mary Maydan, Principal &amp; Founder of Maydan Architects<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-your-idea-of-perfect-happiness\"><strong>What is your idea of perfect happiness?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My idea of perfect happiness is when all of my kids are home (the older ones on break from their universities) and all four get along with each other and don\u2019t fight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-do-you-consider-your-greatest-achievement\"><strong>What do you consider your greatest achievement?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think that my greatest achievement is in helping to lead the trend of modern architecture in Silicon Valley. When I started designing residences in Palo Alto in the early 2000s, Silicon Valley was leading the world in terms of innovation, shining as an early adopter in everything but architecture. People loved French chateaus and Spanish mansions, Tuscan was the height of style, and arches were a status symbol. The consensus was that modern design was suitable for office buildings but that no one would be interested in living in a modern home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wholeheartedly believed in the beauty of modern architecture and that it would be a perfect fit for our area and context. I was convinced that people would fall in love with the style once they were introduced. At the time, I didn\u2019t even think it was brave to go against the stream. I was just passionate about my architecture. In hindsight, I can see how bold it was to expect people to turn 180 degrees and find beauty in something that they were so used to thinking of as cold and office-like. I am proud that I was loyal to my vision which established our firm as a leader of a new trend and defined our niche\u2014minimalistic contemporary architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1350\" height=\"900\" data-id=\"74389\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/1.Maydan-Architects_Floating-Boxes_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects.jpg\" alt=\"floating boxes house modern architecture mayadan architects \" class=\"wp-image-74389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/1.Maydan-Architects_Floating-Boxes_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects.jpg 1350w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/1.Maydan-Architects_Floating-Boxes_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/1.Maydan-Architects_Floating-Boxes_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/1.Maydan-Architects_Floating-Boxes_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1350px) 100vw, 1350px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"474\" data-id=\"74394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/2.-Maydan-Architects_Floating-Boxes_Photography-by-John-Sutton.png\" alt=\"floating boxes house modern architecture mayadan architects photo john sutton\" class=\"wp-image-74394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/2.-Maydan-Architects_Floating-Boxes_Photography-by-John-Sutton.png 710w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/2.-Maydan-Architects_Floating-Boxes_Photography-by-John-Sutton-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"473\" data-id=\"74395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Maydan-Architects_Geometric-House_Photography-by-Harold-Gomes_5-2-2.jpg\" alt=\"geometric house modern architecture mayadan architects\" class=\"wp-image-74395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Maydan-Architects_Geometric-House_Photography-by-Harold-Gomes_5-2-2.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Maydan-Architects_Geometric-House_Photography-by-Harold-Gomes_5-2-2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\"><em>(L) Floating Boxes; (C) Floating Boxes (Photo by John Sutton); (R) Geometric House (Photo by Harold Gomes)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On a personal level, my greatest achievement is my four amazing kids. I have always tried to be a full-time mom while having a full-time career. I like to be the one picking them up from school and hearing all about their day. When they have an important story to share, I can\u2019t tell them: \u201cLet\u2019s talk about it at dinner,\u201d because by dinnertime, they would forget all about it. So I take a break from work for a few hours to be with my kids and then work more hours late at night when the house is quiet and no one needs me. I\u2019m lucky and grateful that my work enables this flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-profession-does-your-alter-ego-have\"><strong>What profession does your alter ego have?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I would definitely be a journalist. In my previous career, I was a writer and specialized in feature stories. It<br>was truly a privilege to meet inspiring people and get a chance to ask them questions and learn about<br>them. I love to write, and I am so curious. When I meet people that fascinate me, I don\u2019t even notice that I<br>slip back into interviewing mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-project-you-will-never-forget\"><strong>The project you will never forget.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I will never forget my first project. The focal point was a spectacular winding staircase. At the time, we<br>couldn\u2019t find anyone to fabricate the staircase locally at an even remotely reasonable price. We had it<br>made overseas and shipped to the U.S. The contractor left the roof open, and the 2-ton-steel staircase<br>was lowered into the building with two cranes, carefully staying clear of the 18\u2019 tall glass wall behind the<br>staircase. In hindsight, I think that it was a bold move to design and spec such a staircase as a beginner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/22.Maydan-Architects_Addison_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects_22-939x1024.jpg\" alt=\"mary maydan staricase modern design architecture minimalist contemporary\" class=\"wp-image-74388\" width=\"710\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/22.Maydan-Architects_Addison_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects_22-939x1024.jpg 939w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/22.Maydan-Architects_Addison_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects_22-275x300.jpg 275w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/22.Maydan-Architects_Addison_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects_22-768x838.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/22.Maydan-Architects_Addison_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects_22-1408x1536.jpg 1408w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/22.Maydan-Architects_Addison_Photography-Courtesy-of-Maydan-Architects_22.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 939px) 100vw, 939px\" \/><figcaption><em>The Staircase by Maydan Architects<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"your-favourite-business-tool-or-resource\"><strong>Your favorite business tool or resource.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instagram and Pinterest.
