Rainey House

This mid-century modern home was designed by architect B.D. “Pat” Riley in 1957 for noted pathologist Dr. J.R. Rainey, who was recognized for contributions to his field at local, state, and national levels. Built of concrete and steel, and faced in stucco, stone, and glass with turquoise metal trim, its mid-century modern aesthetic, more organic and less formal than international style, is seen in the exterior stone walls, landscaping, and environmentally-conscious overhangs. The open floor plan featured a breathable interior, while post and beam construction allowed for large walls of glass, opening up interior spaces and bringing in the outdoors.
