Today we feature an interesting Alamo home designed by influential Bay Area architects Fisher Friedman. The home was built quite early in the firm’s history and it is designed in a decidedly Third Bay Region style. It was widely featured in the shelter press when it was new because of its compelling spaces and ample views. Fisher Friedman was absorbed by the firm NBBJ in 2010 but their impact on the shape of the Bay Area in the 70s and 80s cannot be overstated. This early example of their residential work is a nice reminder of where the company began.
- 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.
