Exterior photograph of the entry of a residential house in Seattle, WA.

HILL HOUSE

This simple composition was designed for a couple that sought a quiet respite on a wooded view lot north of Seattle. An open but intimate living space on the upper level is carefully composed to capture views of woods, shipping lanes, and the Olympic mountains beyond. Kitchen, living and dining spaces flow together with minimal demarcation. Natural light is balanced and abundant. An open stair descends to the bedroom and terrace level sharing a window wall and view with the spaces above.

Corner window shines up the modern living room and keeps nature close to the space.
