Basher | Foster House Tour
October 12, 2019 |
Join Docomomo US/WEWA for Tour Day 2019 at the Basher | Foster residence in Lake Forest Park.
Tour Day is Docomomo US's annual national event that raises awareness of and appreciation for Modern design in the mid-20th century. All across the country, our friends and colleagues are producing great regional events in October!
The Basher | Foster property is an excellent example of a remarkably intact mid-century modern house located in a unique suburb planned around a woodland setting. Aptly named "The Glass House" by the original owners, Philip and Ingletta Basher, the home was designed by Glenn Mattson of the firm, Warren & Mattson, and completed in 1960. The house has been well-maintained and respectfully updated; its exterior and interior retains much of its original configuration and materials.
We thank the current owners, Jeff and Anne Foster, for opening up their home.
We invite you to view this fantastic residence with us, meet the current owners, and engage with Docomomo US/WEWA Board members and docents to learn more about the organization's recent efforts in preservation advocacy and upcoming programs.
