| 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 projects including this residence for Mr. and Mrs. William K. Blethen (later known as Mrs. Kenneth Schoenfeld). In this design, Terry integrates the existing structure with the outdoors through a series of connected glass-faced porches that wrap around a pool leading out towards a garden. |
