Evens has long been considered one of the country's leading contemporary architects, striving to create the ultimate living environment, like Gil Schafer, Bobby McAlpine, Ray Booth, and Stanley Dixon. His inspiration comes from classical traditions and is influenced by modern life inside and out, specifically life in California, and it is an architecture that speaks to people. Evens explains the core design values that give unique and axial strength to his work, creating architecture that addresses people.

Evens' works are stylistically diverse, from a Spanish colonial revival mansion in Malibu overlooking the Pacific, to a farmhouse-inspired residence in the golden hills of Southern California, to an elegant ranch nestled among the ancient oaks adorning the coastal landscape of Montecito. Natural materials, such as wood, stone, and brick, form the foundations, walls, and ceilings of these discreetly luxurious spaces, while nature plays an important role that is both complementary and intricately connected to the work.
