PROJECT: RESIDENCE
LOCATION: ROSS, CA
Built in 1961 by renowned Marin-based architect Donald Olsen, this remarkable residence stands as a true masterpiece of 1960s International Modernism. Featuring expansive walls of glass throughout the living spaces, the design seamlessly integrates with the surrounding natural beauty. At its heart is a tranquil enclosed patio with a fire pit, adding warmth and intimacy to the sleek, modern aesthetic.
Nestled privately on one of the most coveted streets in Ross, this luxurious estate offers the perfect retreat for both relaxation and entertainment. The interior reflects the architectural simplicity and precision of Olsen’s vision, with a clean, minimalist design that complements the surrounding manicured landscape. The estate is designed to celebrate a harmonious balance between the interior, the architecture, and the breathtaking outdoor environment.
The client’s passion for travel adds a unique narrative to the design, with global-inspired elements woven throughout the space to reflect their adventures and worldly elegance. Multiple seating areas create a dynamic flow, inviting guests to gather, explore, and enjoy the seamless blend of spaces. This home is more than an architectural achievement; it is a lifestyle destination where sophistication meets the spirit of a true globetrotter.
