Canlis, above Lake Union, is among his most famous buildings, with its great expanses of angled glass that provide panoramic views. It uses rugged materials, such as stone and wood, worked into a subtle design, according to Henderson. [...] He also designed the original Nordstrom flagship store in downtown Seattle; the Lake Washington home of John and Anne Hauberg, co-founders of Pilchuck Glass School; a Bainbridge Island home for the Haubergs; the Hunts Point home of hydroplane legend Stan Sayres; the Windjammer restaurant on Shilshole Bay; Sun Mountain Lodge in the Methow Valley; and many other homes and offices.
Terry is an icon of a style associated with this region, and a leading force — along with Paul Hayden Kirk, Ralph Anderson, Wendell Lovett, Victor Steinbrueck and Fred Bassetti— behind the rise of modernist buildings in the postwar period and through the middle of the 20th century. Rugged, harmonious with the landscape, elegant and exacting in detail, Terry spaces constitute some of the most breathtaking examples of indigenous design. With elements borrowed from Japanese architecture, Terry established a particular Northwest look with broad beams, cool stone and open spaces. He designed interior atriums to take advantage of sparse Northwest light.
