Inside a Stunning 1948 Modernist Home in Oregon by Pietro Belluschi | House Tour

We conclude our Portland series at the Belluschi–Burkes House, now lovingly cared for by Tony Belluschi, son of one of Oregon’s most remarkable architects, Pietro Belluschi, and his wife, Marti. Designed during a pivotal moment in the evolution of Pacific Northwest Modernism, this home stands as a quiet yet powerful expression of Belluschi’s deep respect for landscape, materials, and light.

Tony, who became an architect himself, shares a unique connection to the home and to his father’s enduring legacy. Together with Marti, they recount the story of acquiring this remarkable gem and the responsibility that comes with caring for a work so deeply tied to family history and architectural heritage.

More than just a beautifully designed residence, the Belluschi–Burkes House lives on as a vessel of memory, an intimate reflection of Pietro Belluschi’s vision and philosophy. Through thoughtful stewardship, Tony and Marti continue to preserve not only the structure itself, but the spirit behind it, ensuring that this legacy will be experienced and appreciated for generations to come.
