Mentone

Long before it was fashionable, famed architect Safwat Malek took an environmental approach to designing and building homes. Beginning in the 1970s, his mindset has always been to unite his buildings harmonically with nature, all the while creating homes with a feeling of luxury and a sense of heritage.

You would be hard pressed to find a builder alive today whose vision is less compromised. His homes are more than structures — they are experiences. They are an intellectual and spiritual choice.

Each Malek home is a step forward for green architecture. Two of his astonishing properties are now available in Carmel, a place that artist Francis McComas once called “the most astonishing meeting of sea and land in the world.”

What better place could there be to let the outside in?
