| Building Notes | Roland Terry was a leading force behind the rise of modernist buildings in the postwar period and through the middle of the 20th century. Terry's trademark architectural style incorporated natural materials, open spaces, interior and landscape design with architecture, serving to create spaces grounded in the style and natural elements of their location. In this restaurant, Terry blended details of Northwest architecture such as beamed ceilings, exterior trellises and natural wood with the bright colors and hand-worked plaster that typefied Southwestern style. |
