Irwin Caplan Mid-Century
“A modernized mid-century home that pays effortless homage to its rich history while getting ready for a new era of family life.”
— SHED Architecture & Design
Originally designed for Irwin Caplan, the illustrator who designed the poster for the 1962 Seattle World’s Fair and cartoonist renowned for his “Famous Last Words” comic strip in The Saturday Evening Post, this mid-century home was both humble and grand–a modest one-story street facade harboring floor-to-ceiling windows with territorial views.
