The Space:

Nestled in the heart of Portland, this historic mid-century modern home offers a unique blend of Japanese architectural influences and Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired design elements. Originally built in 1957, this home has been lovingly restored to preserve its distinctive features while incorporating touches that reflect the Guernsey experience of the Falla family, who once called this place home. From the large central fireplaces to the floating 'clouds' with cove lighting above, every detail tells a story of innovation and cultural fusion.



Step inside and discover a spacious interior adorned with slate floors, shoji-inspired windows, and woven grass fabric ceilings that invite the beauty of the outdoors inside.
