Looking through the home listings the other day I came across this incredible mid century modern listing. It was custom built in 1960 by architect Frank Shell for himself.  Inside of the house were poster boards with some of his design projects specifically Camp Arrowhead, Estacada High School, and some detailed foot bridge plans. The house has multiple atriums (which was great for lighting because there was no electricity on), floor to ceiling glass in most rooms, post and beam ceilings, outdoor fireplace, cork floors, concrete halls, radiant floor heat, and a lot of original fixtures still intact.

  3. My wife and I looked at this house a couple of months ago. It appeared to need some deferred maintenance. Is it still available?
