Favorite Features: The Christian Science Church in Belvedere was designed to suggest the sailboats in the nearby harbor. Callister “took his finished projects seriously. he helped define Bay Area Modernism after WWII as something that was warmer, woodsier and more romantic than comparable work in Southern California or back East. The story, the wood and the concrete are magical.
