This exceptional mid-century modern home was expertly designed by Seiichi Kami, a distinguished Japanese-American architect. Kami, who studied at UC Berkeley and endured internment camps in his youth is renowned for his ability to merge modernist design with the serene essence of Japanese temples. His influence is evident in many notable Bay Area homes and temples, including this property. The home features a cantilevered living room with soaring two-story ceilings and redwood-trimmed vaulted spaces that make a dramatic visual statement. Oversized glass doors lead to balconies on both sides, bathing the interior in natural light and creating a unique sense of openness and tranquility. Every element of the design reflects Kami's vision of crafting spaces that are both peaceful and architecturally bold, echoing the influence of Frank Lloyd Wright while maintaining Kami's distinct style. This home offers a rare chance to experience a harmonious blend of history, culture, and modern luxury.
