From the Agent: “For sale is late architect Ray Kappe’s first single-family residence, which ignited the start of his pioneering and influential career that would span nearly seven decades. At Mesa Lila, you see Kappe’s explorations into a vocabulary that would signify his early works. The emphasis is on spatial expansion, focusing inhabitants toward the surrounding nature and distant views. Natural light spills in from all directions, animating the space and casting slow moving shadows throughout the day. Plus, the property just underwent a complete overhaul of systems and restoration of finishes. This is the latest project by HabHouse, who have built their reputation upon sensitive rehabilitations of architectural properties.”
