SOUNDBITE: (English) Richard Landry, Architect, Owner Landry Design Group: \u003cbr/\u003e\" When people talk to me about trends, I always look at lifestyle as being a new trend because people  are so much more focused about their lifestyle and their health and one of the things that carries into the architecture is having a gym within the house and those gyms also extend into beautiful spas and massage rooms and it's not like in the old days where  the gym was secondary bedroom that was not being used and had treadmill in it.

The most important thing is that it's a house for  yourself and if you go through the process of building your own home you want to make sure that you're listening to your soul  and your listening to your heart and you say what kind of architecture appeals to me.

SOUNDBITE: (English) John Finton, John Finton and Associates Inc., \"Builder to the Stars\": \u003cbr/\u003e\" Really what's in vogue and what's in style is people being at home. People want to use their homes. People are not travelling as much as they used to. It's a hassle to go the airport take your shoes off and your belt and that whole thing. People want to be at home so the homes almost reflect a resort atmosphere. Everything you can think of is here from a movie theatre to a bowling alley to a beauty salon to places for the children to play, if they want to entertain. It really almost feels, it might be a boutique hotel but at some level almost like a hotel.\" \u003cbr/\u003e26. Tilt up from pool to house \u003cbr/\u003e27. Wide pool at house \u003cbr/\u003e28.

SOUNDBITE: (English) John Finton, John Finton and Associates Inc., \"Builder to the Stars\": \u003cbr/\u003e\" People think about green, they think of horrible solar panels sitting on a house somewhere. Green is not necessarily solar panels sitting on house, it could be using old materials salvaged from old buildings.  For example, the home we're standing in front of is a home where we bought literally 80% of the house that you see decoratively is all salvaged from old buildings throughout Europe, everything from the stone on the outside of the building, to the floors to many of the products used inside the house. They're all original so rather than tearing down a forest to find old beams, we actually took old beams out of a building in Scotland.\" \u003cbr/\u003e33.

SOUNDBITE: (English) John Finton, John Finton and Associates Inc., \"Builder to the Stars\": \u003cbr/\u003e\" We're doing a home for Simon Cowell for example and he wanted a particular white stone that comes from an island that is a thasos white and he wanted completely pure white pieces and they had to a certain size which was hard, almost impossible to find actually, like finding diamonds in the sizes that he wanted and we literally went and picked every single piece and had them delivered here. We been to the jungles of Nicaragua to the oldest clay tile manufacturer where they're actually manufacturing the tiles still in the jungle, still firing them in vats that are made of clay in the ground and delivering the clay with oxen.\"\u003cbr/\u003e37.

The award for fine living construction  was picked up by \"builder to the stars\", John Finton of Finton and Associates Inc.\u003cbr/\u003eIn furniture design veteran outdoor furniture designer Janice Feldman of JANUS et CIE and interior restaurant and home creator Barbara Lazeroff of Imaginings Interior Design, Inc were both honoured.\u003cbr/\u003eThe awards are the brainchild of new US based trends publication Art and Living Magazine.\u003cbr/\u003ePublisher Jeff Marinelli says the event saw the design world and the art world brought together in the same publication for the first time.  \u003cbr/\u003eAward winner, Richard Landry is renowned for his awe-inspiring residences. He's designed homes for such notable clients as Eddie Murphy, Rod Stewart and Sylvester Stallone. \u003cbr/\u003eLandry says lifestyle is an important factor of trend because people care more about heath and lifestyle now than in the past. \u003cbr/\u003eLandry Design Group has received several national and international design awards and Landry was recently named - for the third time - one of the top 100 architects/designers in the world by Architectural Digest. \u003cbr/\u003eLandry says that trends are not as important as personal taste. He adds that  the current trend is to have resort amenities at home.\u003cbr/\u003eFamed builder to the stars, John Finton is one of southern California's most prominent builders specialising in luxury construction.\u003cbr/\u003eFinton agrees that the current trend is to have all the amenities at home that one would normally have on holiday, so that homes become similar to boutique hotels.\u003cbr/\u003eBut Finton stresses that the number one thing his clients speak to him about today is going green and energy conservation. He is leading the building green effort at the luxury level. \u003cbr/\u003eFinton explains that  building a green home doesn't necessarily mean having solar panels on the roof. \u003cbr/\u003eOver the past 18 years, the world's most renowned architects have turned to this modern day Indiana Jones John Finton to build their designs. He is renowned for his ability to recover unique raw products, stone, wood and finishes from around the world. \u003cbr/\u003eFinton thinks nothing of treking from Jordan to China to Central America to Greece to find the very best and exactly what the customer wants. \u003cbr/\u003eFinton explains the efforts made to obtain a white stone requested by X Factor creator, Simon Cowell. \u003cbr/\u003eVerification of this new 'art/design marriage' can be seen in the guest list for the event  which included prominent Los Angeles art gallery owners Lily Yunlike of the Andrew Weiss Gallery, David W Streets of the Dawson Cole Fine Gallery, Stephen Cohen of the Stephen Cohen Gallery, Samuel B Freeman of the Particia R. Fauvre Gallery and Adam Gross of the Museum of Contemporary Art. \u003cbr/\u003eAlso attending was the oldest living 96 year old legendary architecture photographer Julius Shulman, whose photographs spanning decades were just acquired by the Getty Museum and will appear in a blockbuster exhibition at the Getty in the autumn. \u003cbr/\u003eThe award ceremony took place on August
