This is a photo of the modern wooden staircase with a metal handrail, the stone accent wall completes the look. The floor-to-ceiling-windows provide a great view of the outdoors. Built by ULFBUILT.

The walls are rendered a velvety stucco, the floors are Fior di Pesco Carnico a grey/white veined marble with traces of brownie-red, while the tour de force of the brass kitchen evokes art rather than domesticity.

Situated on the west slope of Mt. Baker Ridge, this remodel takes a contemporary view on traditional elements to maximize space, lightness and spectacular views of downtown Seattle and Puget Sound. We were approached by Vertical Construction Group to help a client bring their 1906 craftsman into the 21st century. The original home had many redeeming qualities that were unfortunately compromised by an early 2000’s renovation. This left the new homeowners with awkward and unusable spaces. After studying numerous space plans and roofline modifications, we were able to create quality interior and exterior spaces that reflected our client’s needs and design sensibilities. The resulting master suite, living space, roof deck(s) and re-invented kitchen are great examples of a successful collaboration between homeowner and design and build teams.
