3440 St Paul Ave, Minneapolis, MN, USA
3440 St Paul Ave Home History 1952 / rebuilt. Locus Architecture (Wynne Yelland and Paul Neseth), 2004 This house, built up from a 1950s rambler, garnered reams of publicity when it appeared in all its high-tech splendor on an other- wise ordinary residential block. It employs novel materials such as siding made from the vinyl used for billboards, and it's also full of trendy design features like a lattice screen that obscures the front door. In view of the house's many unorthodoxies, it's no surprise that it took quite awhile to sell and fetched considerably less than the initial asking price of $1 million. Still, if not for young architects exploring new ideas, the world of design would be very dull indeed. Citation: Millett, Larry. AIA Guide to the Minneapolis Lake District.
