Best practice architecture He shared pictures of a renovation project in Seattle’s Mount Baker Neberhood, where he replaced the humble and practical bones of the 1950s home and turned it into a contemporary house.
There is a look at the original house exterior here.
Although effectively, including a completely new house, old marks, footprints, overall layouts, and most existing windows and door openings.
The best practice ended the design with scalloped ringworm covering out. Stained in a semi-shout white, wood texture makes a friendly expression that reflects the small house. Blue door and a matching planter add colored pop to the house.
Inside, the updated entrance includes custom -made cold storage with hooks.
The shells in the original kitchen are dated and closed from the living room and dining room.
The new kitchen has a functional “U” size with natural stone countertops and spontaneous access to living areas for the experience of a connected main floor.
The previous dining area has a small table and was different from the kitchen.
Custom stained glass windows, designed by the owner’s youngest daughter and partner, put fickle shade and colored pop in the new dining room and powder room.
The original living room had a large photo window, a skylight and a chimney with a chimney.
The new kitchen and dining area is open to the living room, which increases flow and connectivity. The picture window was replaced with a large slippery glass doors open to a deck with views of the Washington and Cascade mountain, which stains the lines between indoor and outdoor living.
A vailed roof, complemented by a series of skylight, provides a generous, ventilated experience, filling the space with natural light. A striking green shiny brick chimney acts as a focal point, which extends upwards in the skylight and draws the eye.
At the lower level of the house, there was a dated kitchen and laundry space
The most impressive design change of the house was the best practice decision to move internal stairs. Instead of cutting the house, the designers rotated it 90 degrees and moved it to the southern end of the main structure. These stairs connect the main level of the house to the lower level.
The bottom serves as a secondary housing unit in which a comfortable living room opens in a low courtyard. The new ladder is connected through the new ladder, the lower level can be accessed separately to adjust the income of the multi-generation or future fare.
A full bathroom, a cervical, and two liberal bedrooms complete the basement unit.
Behind the house, a deck sees the backyard.
The elegant landscaping made with Cambium Landscape surrounded the stone courtyer with native plants and trees, carried forward stones in areas stuck for privacy, and backyard stones, while stairs in the deck are connecting the garden.
The original bedrooms were plain with dated fixtures and blinds in their design.
The updated bedroom has new blind and wall details, and one also includes a built -in desk.
The house has a variety of updated bathrooms, including a spa-inspired blue tile bathroom, white oak cabinetry in an open closet and a primary suite with a convenient adjacent fabric washing area.
Another bathroom consists of small square tiles and an arched mirror.
