Mark Mills was one of the many Taliesen fellows that made names for themselves in California. His experimental organic homes in Carmel and Big Sur were some of the most compelling and original work on the coast in the middle of the last century. The home we feature here today is a bit less novel than some of the structures he is best known for, but it still employs a good deal of Mills’ trademark inventiveness in the interesting exposed gull wing trusses and thoughtful interior spaces. His unique vision and eye for detail is as readily apparent here as it is in each of his innovative homes.
- Edificionado is an Oakland-based real estate brokerage specializing in architecturally and historically significant homes. The listings we feature here are those that have recently caught our eye due to their provenance or exceptional state of preservation. We select them without regard to size, price, or location and in general we are not the listing broker, so we have no stake in their being posted here. As we are based in Oakland, most of the homes will be in the East Bay, though we may throw one in from elsewhere in the Bay Area from time to time. If you would like to visit any of these homes, or receive a personalized list of properties more tailored to your specific requirements and tastes please contact Christian Olson at colson@edificionado.com or at 510 686 3343.
