| 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. Incorporating natural materials, open spaces, interior and landscape design with architecture, Terry's designs constitute some of the best examples of Northwest Modernist architecture. From 1952 until 1960, Terry partnered with architect Philip Moore and together they completed a large number of residential and commercial projects, including the Crissey Florist Shop in downtown Seattle. The facade of the shop was recognized for its graphic and decorative elements, including its stylized harlequin metalwork pattern that balanced the natural elements of the lush flowers and plants inside. |
