## Selected projects

- [Commodore Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/commodore-residence-pj-vj~3043549)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 12
  - Description: The Commodore Way residence in Seattle, WA overlooks Salmon Bay just west of the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks. It is a modern three-story home built on a large 8,000 square-foot sloping vacant lot. The four-bedroom, three and a half bath, 4,000 square-foot home, including basement and attached garage, responds to the topography and orientation of its property. Inspired by the amazing view of Salmon Bay and the Olympic Mountains beyond, the primary living spaces are located on the top level taking f…
- [Family Share](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/family-share-pj-vj~522505)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 12
  - Description: Our client’s goal was to create a small, high-performance, healthy home for herself and her teenage son while providing a place for her father to age in place. An attached private accessory dwelling provides a space for him as well as flexibility in the future. The new home was designed to minimize its footprint on site, made smaller than the original 1930’s house. Embracing adaptability and efficiency, the residence includes two dwellings: a one-bedroom 795 square-foot accessory dwelling at the…
- [Wallingford Townhomes](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wallingford-townhomes-pj-vj~522547)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 11
  - Description: This Wallingford project has multiple “fronts”, to Wallingford Avenue N, internally between the structures and to each side defining the woonerf for shared access. The true front of the project is the one internal to the site, defining a centrally located outdoor space that is terraced and sheltered with direct views to and from each of the eleven homes. Accessed between the structures, the courtyard space connects to the lower outdoor multi-use spaces of the woonerfs. In addition each home has…

- [Judkins Park House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/judkins-park-house-pj-vj~522540)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: The Judkins Park house in Seattle, WA was developed and designed by b9 architects. It is a modern three-story 4-star Built Green house sharing a wall and a city lot with a single-story 1900 bungalow. It sits in the space of the old driveway, its new walkway reusing the broken concrete from the driveway. Though the new home has solar tubes for hot water, a gray-water reuse system, dual-flush toilets and locally-sourced and reclaimed materials, the project's most sustainable commitment was saving…
- [Row 1412](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/row-1412-pj-vj~3043863)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 8
  - Description: Row 1412 is located on Capitol Hill on approximately 10,000 square feet of L3 zoned property. Originally developed as three single family houses, the project, currently under construction, consists of seven new homes and the preservation of one of the three existing single family homes. The siting of the proposal provides the opportunity to preserve an existing Ginkgo tree at the east edge of the site. The proposal will be designed around a central courtyard and walkway that connects the site fr…
- [Radici](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/radici-pj-vj~522782)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 7
  - Description: Radici is a new Italian restaurant located in Seattle's Pioneer Square neighborhood. Just around the corner from our office, it provided an opportunity to directly contribute to the investment and growth of our neighborhood. Designed and permitted in only a few weeks, Radici opened in early summer of 2013. A simple material palette compliments the incredible exposed structure of the historic building. A bar of reclaimed wood and large elongated white tile bends through the space. Its backdrop is…
- [View Haus 5](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/view-haus-5-pj-vj~3043925)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 10
  - Description: View Haus 5 is an innovative approach to infill development on a narrow site. All homes were designed to Passivhaus standards and one of them has been certified. In response to the site's topography the townhouses are terraced in a single structure. A common walkway connects the site from 25th Avenue E to the alley widening at the center of the site to form a common courtyard. The courtyard is terraced to separate home entries in section from the surface of the courtyard. Decks created to be sim…
- [Urban Canyon](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/urban-canyon-pj-vj~522555)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 12
  - Description: The intention behind the canyon is to create community - a place for people to walk, hang out, and visit with neighbors. The canyon, separating the 7 homes, ranges from 10 to nearly 18 feet wide, and is oriented north south, with a spur to the west. This orientation permits people to walk in from either 19th Avenue or E. Pine Street, or in from their car, which is discreetly tucked at the edge of the site. Here, the auto knows its place, and neighbors have a chance to interact in an informal set…
- [Backyard Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/backyard-residence-pj-vj~7041647)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 9
  - Description: This single family house in Seattle’s Central District neighborhood, is a prime example of how b9 architects’ Urban+ strategy can elegantly add density without removing character from the neighborhood. The client came to b9 architects wanting to add a home to their backyard. This new home would be their residence, while the existing house could be repurposed for extended family, used as a rental or in the future become a for sale property. Large glass doors connect the new residence’s kitchen an…
- [335 DADU](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/335-dadu-pj-vj~7041663)
  - Location: Seattle, WA
  - Photos: 6
  - Description: This two-bedroom detached accessory dwelling unit (DADU) responds to a small footprint creating a new 800 square-foot structure in the backyard of an existing house. The size led to designing the home vertically, as a small two-story dwelling. To create a taller, more dynamic living space, the ceiling is vaulted following a gabled roof line. Two bedrooms, located mostly below grade to maximize the amount of rentable square footage, have window wells to bring in ample natural light and provide re…
