Project Description
Updating of a mid-century home originally designed for Irwin Caplan, the illustrator who designed the poster for the 1962 Seattle World’s Fair and cartoonist renowned for his “Famous Last Words” comic strip in The Saturday Evening Post.
A modest one-story street facade harboring floor-to-ceiling windows with territorial views, the house was updated to be reoriented towards the views and the light.
