When architect Anthony Belluschi took on the restoration of a midcentury modern house in the West Hills of Portland, Oregon, he had big architectural shoes to fill - his father’s. Internationally known architect Pietro Belluschi had built the native wood and glass home in 1948 for a client. Years later the architect returned from the East Coast, where he’d been dean of MIT’s School of Architecture, to buy the house he designed. He lived in it from 1973 until his death in 1994.
More recently, Anthony - himself a successful architect - rebuilt the teahouse on the property as a small guest studio to live in while his mother’s caregivers used a bedroom in the main house. After his mother died, Belluschi and his brother inherited the house, which had seen few repairs in its six decades. Instead of tearing down the structure, as some suggested, Belluschi moved into the tiny guesthouse and took on a major renovation, enlarging the main residence by more than 700 square feet. The alterations so improved on his father’s original vision that in 2013, Belluschi received a DeMuro Award from the historic preservation organization Restore Oregon, given for “extraordinary historic rehabilitation projects.” - Навчання та стиль

Some realtor says “it can be a tear down”. Response should have been, “get out and don’t let the door hit you in the ass”. This is a home built with thought and love, what a wonderful job to restore it!
What a lovely homage to your father by updating a home that meant so much to him but keeping so well in the original design flow. I can't believe a realtor suggested it was a tear down, even if it needed some work. This home is just breathtakingly beautiful. I could only dream.
He lost me at "kitch-bath"...
I’ve walked through this house and grounds, it’s spectacular.
The type of home you pass down from generation to generation. Nicely constructed.
Nice main house. The guest house "kitchbath" is not practical. The sanitary and smell factors make it a terrible choice. I love the view!
This house design is truly timeless. Kudos to the designers, especially his dad. His church design was also good.
Really beautiful! But a kitchbath... hmmm...
DiDi's Adventures I agree there's something about kitch & bath that just doesn't go together even when you say it, LOL otherwise beautiful.
I believe the saying "don't sh..t where you eat (/cook)" becomes particularly relevant when it comes to the kitchbath :D
DiDi's Adventures that annoyed me too
what time do they say kitchbath?
luis hernandez it's at 1:56
That "kitchbath" though... I didn't see any cooking facilities there or did I just miss that? I can't imagine someone cooking dinner just after someone else used the 🚽 so maybe that kitchbath is not meant for cooking? Who can shine a light on this? Otherwise I really love this house. It's a true piece off timeless architecture. What a great job they have done!
This really is a timeless house. I can see that it's built with love
Its absolutely beautiful.
early in the video he mentioned that that estate agents said it was a tear down.That shows what a philistine he was and a nincompoop.
This house is as amazing as any of Frank Lloyd Wrights houses.Iconic.
This home has heart and soul. It's just beautiful.
I keep replaying the kitchbath scene like some Onion video... "everything to the right is a bathroom." "It's a kitchbath." "everything to the right is a bathroom." "It's a kitchbath." the rest of the video is a blur...
its a forever home, not limited to a particular design as dictated by trends and fashion. its simple and timeless.
The woven ceiling is incredible, so unique and stunning, I'd love to live in this house!!
a kitchbath? that's poor space planning right there.
Alex A The kitchbath is part of the teahouse, not the main house.
"where art and architecture meet." this is the first i've heard of this concept, yet it make so much sense. it is the natural flow of these two arts.
Absolutely perfect
Except for the kitch. Bath
So beautiful of blending between the East and West, with an obvious timelessness of the great Frank Lloyd Wright influence. Simply stunning!
Canice Tang I was going to say what you have said here.
Definitely in the FLW style
Absolutely beautiful and I love how it's evolved yet maintained its original vision.
THANK GOODNESS HE HELD THE VISION. !! ITS WORTHY !!
beautiful home...great use of all the wood and glass
What a beautiful home! You are so blessed to live in such a unbelievable home! Great work and a job done very good!
Breathtakingly beautiful. In this crazy loud world we live in today this quiet and simple architecture would be the perfect antidote. Well done, perfect blending while respecting the old. 👌🏼❤️
The "kitch-bath" is only in the guest house; not the main house.
Beautiful people. Beautiful home. Beautiful view.
Overwhelmed expresses how I felt as I watched this video. This property is heavenly. He and his father created magic.
Pietro Belluschi.. wow
The main room sings. The wood, open plan design, the style and the surrounding view of nature are lovely. This room seems designed to feel a certain way, as opposed to just looking good. That's good home design.
What a clever Idea the kitch-bath. The tiny home is great for guest.
A Lovely home for lovely people...so have a great happy long healthy life together!
I am so happy to have found this channel. Not merely for the fact I adore browsing videos of unique homes, also for being introduced to some unique people as well. This couple live in splendor and have renovated and added to this masterpiece, they are humbly grateful with poise and that is as rare as the home! Wonderful
Pure class..... house and owners.
absolutely gorgeous. It goes to show the importance of good design and architecture and how timeless it truly can become.
A kitchen with a toilet. No thanks.
I was in awe of this beautiful place and the story behind it . What just incredible talent and knowledge so very interesting ! I couldn't imagine waking up in this beauty
Oh my.
Simply Beautiful.🌱
I can see a lot of inspiration form East-Asian culture.
Stunning love contemporary and mid century combos.
Beautiful. So much talent. His dad did a good job raising his kids
Such a beautiful space he as created. I could feel a meditative calmness surrounding it
Love to see such restorations. The property has great views and they really had a good base design from the 1940's to work with.
what a beautiful home. and that courtyard, holy moly
I love midcentury modern architecture. This is so lovely! The window walls are my favorite.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. What beautiful architecture.
Stunning House!
Wonderful. So in tune with the natural environment.
What a beautiful and comfortable home. I knew it was Portland, Oregon, because that is where I'm from. Native Oregonians can identify Oregon craftmanship.
Love it. Wonderful reju-reno. And that view is incredible too.
Timeless piece of art some rare details mixed with bold inspirations
Ample natural light energizes the interiors and the picture windows exhibit almost 360 life size art gallery
Hope the legacy flourishes
Absolutely Beautiful!
Your father would be very proud! 👍🏾

Beautiful house. Really enjoyed how they kept the original house at the forefront of their design.
tHe kitchbath is big enough to be seperated into two with a wall and to have a full bathroom amd a small kiychwn no need to smash them together. or just dont make a kitchen there it is attatched to the house why would they need a kitchen there.
This is my DREAM home!!! This is absolutely amazing. Everything about this home design is perfect.

Beautiful house

Modern and timeless....
If you guys actually finished the video you would see how beautiful his actual kitchen is.😤
Love the style.
A beautiful home and i am glad you can share that with your father. However, i do agree with the other comments regarding the toilet in the kitchen. Also (while everything is beautiful and i would LOVE to live in that space) it does seem a bit dark so a large sky light in the main living space would make it even more amazing. Over all a great space
Wow itz like heaven with peace
Room is “humble?!” Room is intimate and serene.
It’s a piece of art
Love it!
those bricks so neat....
Looks like a modern Japanese themed house. Very nice.
So amazzzziiiiinnnngggg...!!!
It's not really my style, but I'm very fascinated by the designs!
beautiful
