Poject Details

Sited on a steep shoreline hillside, this house commands broad views of Elliott Bay and Puget Sound. The entire site is considered living space, with rooms formed both inside and outside. Large sliding doors in the primary living pavilion create a transparency that allows water views from the Zen-inspired garden court through the structure. Inside the pavilion, high, layered ceilings dissolve any sense of vertical containment.
