Anderson House, 1922 (New house behind facade by Fin Kappe, 1995)
390 Vance Street

Anderson, whose first name seems to have disappeared, was supposed to have been a merchant who brought treasures from all over the world to this tiny house. Most of his travels seem, however, to have been in Mexico. This house, with its magnificent tile, art glass windows, and mosaic of Mexican dancers in front of a mission arcade is a real stunner.

Fin Kappe (Kappe Studios)
390 Vance St

Before committing to the study of Architecture at Sci-Arc, Finn studied philosophy, astronomy, geology and fine art at U.C. Berkeley and U.C. Santa Cruz. At the age of twenty-two, he returned to Los Angeles to build the Borghei-Cookston Residence designed by, Ray Kappe FAIA, (featured in Abitare, Architecture und Vohen and AMC). He received his Bachelor of Architecture from Sci-Arc in 1982 and a Masters of Architecture in 1986. Throughout this period of academic training, he alternately worked in offices and managed construction projects.

In 1986, Finn became a Partner of Kappe Architects Planners. Between 1986 and 1990, he was the lead designer on 9 residences and project architect on 5 others. As well, he participated in the master planning of the Harris Company’s Malibu Housing, Clubhouse and Restaurant.

In 1991, he opened his own office – Kappe Studio, and continued with several more residences.

Finn has been the project manager for over 15 million dollars of construction. He continues to enjoy the process of making buildings real and his experiences in the field of construction have informed his designs in every way.

Mr. Kappe has taught at the USC School of Architecture, is a frequent critic at Sci-Arc and has lectured at UCLA. His work has been published in GA Houses, Abitare, Architecture und Vohen, AMC, LA Times Magazine and Architecture. Awards include the LABC Award for new SFD and finalist for remodeled SFD. Exhibits include LA On the Move, 100:100, and New Blood 101.
