A Wurster Revival by Butler Armsden Architects
Butler Armsden Architects completely redesigned this 1939 William Wurster house situated in Pacific Heights, California.
Description by Butler Armsden Architects
Originally designed by William Wurster and built in 1939 on a wide, high street in Pacific Heights, our client purchased this home to serve as a west coast outpost for his family who live primarily in New York but maintain homes around the world. The design was informed in part by a reading of “In Praise of Shadows” by Junichiro Tanizaki and became a synthesis of the early Wurster aesthetic, with a new palate of natural, pure and casually beautiful materials, punctuated by a global collection of art and objects.
