Ralph Anderson
Few architects are as closely associated with the evolution of the Northwest Regional style as Ralph Anderson. Influenced by forebears in the movement who included Paul Kirk, Roland Terry and Lionel Pries, his work is widely appreciated for its clean linearity, exposed structure, deep, protective roof overhangs and reliance on unadorned, native materials. His residential work shows an appreciation of coastal indigenous structures, frequently including great spaces with vaulted ceilings that resemble longhouses, while his meticulously ordered window placement allows the home to function as a framing element for its surrounding nature.
During a nearly sixty-year career, Anderson’s name became synonymous with defining the gracious, Northwest living experience. Frequently published and awarded, his commissions are highly sought-after to this day, and have always been considered an imprimatur of good taste and an appreciation for the natural elements that make the region so special.
