About the author
Nicknamed the Indiana Jones of Builders, John Finton is the go-to guy in luxury residential building, having traveled through over 80 countries, in some 25 years, sourcing the planet's most unusual and rare materials for his uber-luxurious homes. Working with high-profile clients such as Simon Cowell, Jennifer Lopez, Dustin Hoffman, Maria Shriver, Mark Wahlberg and countless captains of industry, he describes his work as "building art through construction". This love of building and global sourcing was what inspired this, his first book, in which readers stand to gain an insider's look into some of Southern California's most prominent addresses. John Finton is a recipient of Teen Line's 'Above and Beyond' Award and has been a national spokesperson for Bank of America's Building Green effort. John currently resides in Pasadena, California with his wife and three children.
