About

John Connell has been designing and building homes since 1980.  That’s when he imagined the Yestermorrow School with a group of like-minded dreamers, design/builders; craftspeople and architects.

Giocondo Susini, the most recent of many generations of Italian master-builders, is trained as both an engineer and an architect. He has probably forgotten more sacred geometry than the druids ever knew!

Additionally, we collaborate with a rare constellation of gifted designers and engineers all over North America.

Our process is about collaboration….

• With the site.

• With the homeowner

• With the contractors

• With the neighborhood

We don’t aspire to one style or “look”; no “brand” as they say.  What we make depends on where we’re making it and for whom.

In addition to portrait homes, we design & build:

• prefab affordable housing

• prefab historic replicas

• prefab custom homes

• treehouses for children in wheelchairs.

• pop-up merchandizing and sales

• interactive art kiosks

• custom furniture & built-ins
