Home with a View
Challenge
A classic NW Contemporary home that had original details people pine for like cedar paneled walls, floor to ceiling windows, and a great floor plan. It also had decades of wear and tear and some design choices that don’t work well today: a small kitchen, short bath vanities, and an oversized yet under utilized powder bath. The homeowners wanted to balance maintaining the original finishes while creating a harmonious, updated home with more storage, especially in the bathrooms.
Solution
We designed a kitchen that maintained a classic feel by using walnut for the kitchen cabinetry while modernizing appliances, counters, and tile splash. The heart of the home was reconfigured to allow for a formal dining, enlarged chefs kitchen with a cooking, washing, and entertaining and homework zones, and a more open feel. The bath was reworked to add a shower, and the two other baths were updated to meet today’s needs.
Result
Modern and meaningful changes blnded with with classic structure breathed new life into this amazing home.
