Single-Family
The R Residence
Seattle, WA
Nestled on the hillside in Seattle, this stunning two-story house is the perfect blend of luxurious living and breathtaking views. Its location overlooking the Puget Sound offers panoramic views of the shimmering waters and surrounding scenery of the cityscape of Seattle.
Responding to the natural features of the landscape, such as the slope of the land, the orientation to the sun, the prevailing wind direction, and the existing vegetation, the design of the house takes advantage of the site topography by creating different levels and terraces that follow the contours of the land. This enhances the visual interest of the building and provides better access to outdoor spaces. Currently Under Construction.
Kahan Residence
mercer island, wa
Our client desired a traditional Pacific Northwest style house on Mercer Island. Located on the shore of Lake Washington, the steep site was a challenge to meet their concept. The resulting design presented a traditional two-story elevation on the approach, while the lake side afforded numerous framed views of Lake Washington and Mt. Rainier and allowed a stepped, transitional descent to the lake front. Currently under construction.
Bellevue Residence
bellevue, wa
The project incorporated a significant renovation that included small addition to update this small 1950's home. The finished home was designed to accommodate a growing family while staying in scale with the neighborhood. The transformation provided a two story open space for entertaining which is now accessible from the street side. It also opened the lower level to the secure private backyard, perfect for family activities. Sustainability features include: reclaimed lumber for stair treads, reuse of existing structure, a VRF HVAC and LED lighting. Completed: 2013.
Lake Sammamish Residence
lake sammamish, wa
The nautical design of the house was inspired by the beautiful lake front setting with limited build-able area. The resulting three-story residence stacked the living spaces on a relatively small footprint. This small living offers a sweeping 180 deg view of Lake Sammamish and a trail access nearby which gives an immerse essence of the Pacific Northwest. Completed: 2009.
Ocean View Residence
hualalai, hi
The villa is nestled on a lush property on the big island surrounded by an 220 degree ocean view with palm trees and tropical gardens, providing a serene and private oasis for its guests. The villa features spacious living areas with comfortable furnishings, high-end amenities, and modern conveniences. The indoor and outdoor spaces flow together which provides the opportunity for relaxation as they would in a traditional Hawaiian dwelling. Completed: 2006.
