History [ edit ]
Anshen and Allen was founded by Samuel Robert "Bob" Anshen (1910-1964) and William Stephen "Steve" Allen Jr. (1912-1992) in San Francisco in 1940. Anshen was born in Revere, Massachusetts , in 1910 to Louis Joseph Anshen and Sarah Jaffee, both of whom were Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe. At the time of his birth, they owned a jewelry shop and were prosperous enough to afford a servant.[6] Neptune Township, New Jersey , in 1912.[7]
Their relationship began while they were studying at the University of Pennsylvania School of Architecture. Upon graduation, they both received a traveling fellowship that eventually led them to San Francisco in 1937.[8]
Keck Science Center at Pepperdine University , designed by Anshen and Allen
Their first project was the Davies House, a 6,000-square-foot (560 m 2 Woodside, California , commissioned by Ralph K. Davies, a senior vice-president of Standard Oil of California . The house was completed on November 30, 1941. After the end of World War II , as a generalist practice, the firm developed gas station prototypes for Standard Oil, parking garages and interior naval architecture .
Joseph Eichler and John Calder Mackay , both residential real estate developers , commissioned Anshen and Allen to build the initial Eichler homes and Mackay Homes in the California Modernist style beginning in the 1950s.[9] [10] [11] tract housing until 1962.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, under the leadership of Derek Parker, the firm was transformed into a modern international architectural practice.
During the mid-2000s, Anshen and Allen adopted the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM).[12] Integrated Project Delivery by serving on the IPD Definition Task Group of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) California Council.[13]
Anshen and Allen used shipping containers in their design for clinics for Containers 2 Clinics (C2C), a nonprofit organization that provides access to healthcare for women and children in rural areas.[14]
In 2009 the firm was identified as specializing in sustainable designs for the healthcare and academic markets.[15] [16] [17]
Anshen and Allen was acquired by Stantec in 2010.
The Anshen and Allen papers are kept in the Environmental Design Archives at the University of California, Berkeley .[18]
