This single-family home remodel was completed in 2008.

This remodel is perched above a ravine in the Washington Park neighborhood of Seattle. The clients desired a kitchen they could live in --- informal, artistic and full of healthy innovative materials. The cabinets have been crafted out of bamboo, hand-troweled Milestone covers the main countertop surfaces, and Alkemi (a solid surface material composed of recycled aluminum) adorns the island.

During the warmer months the room transforms with the wall of folding doors, opening on two sides to extend out into the landscape—one side to the new cantilevered deck, the other to the rear barbecue terrace. In the winter months the two sided gas fireplace lets the room glow with warmth.
