Second in a phased remodel based on a master plan remodel design, this remodel added a large dormer addition to add a new primary suite with walk-in-closet and ensuite bath as well as a laundry room and a fourth bedroom with its own ensuite bath. The laundry room included space for small home office and door opening up to a juliet balcony to provide access to move in large furniture that couldn’t be navigated up the existing narrow stair. In the prior remodel of the main floor, drain lines and utilities were roughed in for this further addition to not require opening up the ceiling of the main level.

A Remodel to a house in Seattle’s Ravenna Neighborhood. The owners downsized into a smaller home and wanted to adapt it for aging-in-place single level living. The small bathroom was enlarged to create a curbless shower with grip bars and space for a wheelchair to turn around. A new laundry hall closet was added to the main level by carving space out of an awkwardly proportioned galley kitchen. A steep interior stairway that blocked access to the deck from the kitchen was relocated to provide access to the rear deck directly from the remodeled kitchen. The basement was also remodeled with its own bathroom, laundry and separate entrance. The crawl space was converted to conditioned area with additional storage.

Located on San Juan Island, this custom designed prefabricated modular home was designed in an H shape configuration to provide a central living space with flanking bedroom wings. The central space has upland views to the wooded site on the south and opens up to a covered deck on the water side. Window locations were optimized for connecting with the natural settings while also orientated to provide privacy from adjacent properties.
