We designed this bedroom to give a powerful outside inside theme as it faces parkland out of the windows. This wallpaper has birds flying around the bed which are colour matched for the upholstery and cushions. Natural coloured carpet, sky patterned cushions and textured throw bring the scheme together beautifully.

An open floor plan with high ceilings and large windows adds to the contemporary style of this home. The view to the outdoors creates a direct connection to the homes outdoor living spaces and the lake beyond. Photo by Jacob Bodkin. Architecture by James LaRue Architects.

The home office looks onto a central courtyard housing a sculptural urn. The walls are lined with timber shelving and cabinets including the use of walnut travertine stone benches and floor tiles.

Dark gray tones are juxtaposed with bright shades of yellow, green, and orange in this funky and fun living room. Framed white windows emphasize the view while nature-inspired patterns and organic décor blur the lines between the indoors and out. A contemporary chandelier serves as a statement piece while a white mantel and stone fireplace create a strong focal point within the room.

With a palette of warm browns and soft raspberries this room, designed for a teenage girl, is sleek and sophisticated. The modular headboard, fabricated from individually upholstered sections of chocolate chenille, serves as a backdrop for the colorful palette of fabrics used for the bed linens and pillows. Any teenage girl would love to sink into her cool, comfy chair when she needs some down time and pull up an ottoman from the foot of her bed. Or, she can lounge on her bed and admire the clever, interlocking art display on the opposite wall. This transitional room will grow with any girl from her early teens through her college years.

The Port Ludlow Residence is a compact, 2400 SF modern house located on a wooded waterfront property at the north end of the Hood Canal, a long, fjord-like arm of western Puget Sound. The house creates a simple glazed living space that opens up to become a front porch to the beautiful Hood Canal. The east-facing house is sited along a high bank, with a wonderful view of the water. The main living volume is completely glazed, with 12-ft. high glass walls facing the view and large, 8-ft.x8-ft. sliding glass doors that open to a slightly raised wood deck, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor space. During the warm summer months, the living area feels like a large, open porch. Anchoring the north end of the living space is a two-story building volume containing several bedrooms and separate his/her office spaces. The interior finishes are simple and elegant, with IPE wood flooring, zebrawood cabinet doors with mahogany end panels, quartz and limestone countertops, and Douglas Fir trim and doors. Exterior materials are completely maintenance-free: metal siding and aluminum windows and doors. The metal siding has an alternating pattern using two different siding profiles. The house has a number of sustainable or “green” building features, including 2x8 construction (40% greater insulation value); generous glass areas to provide natural lighting and ventilation; large overhangs for sun and rain protection; metal siding (recycled steel) for maximum durability, and a heat pump mechanical system for maximum energy efficiency. Sustainable interior finish materials include wood cabinets, linoleum floors, low-VOC paints, and natural wool carpet.

Transitional large style remodel of existing 1960's ranch. The unique use of standard building materials with good design and solid proportions created this award winning home.
