121 TOYON L ANE
121 TOYON L ANE SAUSALITO ARCHITECTURAL LEGACY 121 Toyon Lane is a story of Bay Area modernism and the collective vision of three talented architects. Inspired by the dramatic Case Study Houses of Los Angeles, Sausalito’s hillside terrain and sensational views of the San Francisco Bay became an exciting ‘design laboratory’ for a regional architectural movement, the Second Bay Tradition. Toyon Lane was originally designed in 1955 by the UC Berkeley trained, modernist architect Roger Lee. The home captured his graceful signature use of linear walls of glass and redwood siding. In 2000, award-winning architect Robert Swatt updated the original design in a triumphant recapitulation of Lee’s idealized concept. Under the current ownership, Julie Dowling of Dowling Studios, has elegantly refined Swatt’s vision with her restrained modernist hand to deliver in-demand, contemporary interiors for the most discerning design connoisseur. 1955 Architect, Roger Lee 2000 Architect, Robert Swatt 2022 Architect, Julie Dowling Of f e re d a t $ 4 , 285,000
