[Identification of Item], William P. Coburn Collection, Environmental Design Archives, University of California, Berkeley.
William P. Coburn, born in 1944, is an architect based in Berkeley, CA. He received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Massachusetts
College of Arts in 1966, and a Masters in Architecture from Harvard School of Design in 1971. In 1978, Coburn opened his firm
in the San Francisco Bay Area. Coburn's projects are primarily based in the East Bay and Contra Costa County, but there have
also been projects in Seattle, WA; Martha's Vineyard, MA; Hong Kong; and India. Coburn's practice focuses on creating designs
that include existing urban and cultural contexts, and solutions to environmental problems. Coburn's work includes residential
projects, historic preservation, multi-family homes, and landscape design.
William P. Coburn is also the author of "A Northern California Modernist Architect," published by Archetype in Fall 1980.
