LakeShore Residence

Seattle, WA

This three-bedroom home is located on the shores of Lake Washington in a quiet in-city neighborhood with expansive water and mountain views including Mt Rainier.  Our clients asked us to design a timeless, enduring structure that was distinctly contemporary with a quiet but powerful presence.  It was important that their home have warm feeling interior spaces that had a strong relationship with the outdoors.  Stone was the ideal cladding material to provide the long-term durability and performance that our clients expected.  Sawn Texas limestone with a seemingly random coursing and minimal grout joint was used to give a refined character.  The exterior was rigorously detailed to reinforce the contemporary influence and eliminate unnecessary and extraneous elements.  The result is a home that is striking in its simplicity of form.

Winner of the 2010 Masonry Institute of Washington Honor Award for Excellence in Masonry Design.
