Completed in 2015, the Othello House was designed by PRDG Architecture + Design and built by Better Builders as a striking example of modern living in West Seattle. Though the homeowners chose not to pursue formal certification, the project was built to meet the rigorous standards of a Five-Star Built Green™ home. From the ground up, sustainability and style were equally prioritized. The build preserved native vegetation, retained mature trees on-site, exceeded Washington State Energy Code requirements, and recycled over 70% of construction waste by weight. Recycled-content materials were thoughtfully incorporated throughout, reinforcing the home’s eco-conscious foundation. Large windows on all sides flood the interiors with natural light, while the surrounding landscaping is designed to highlight lush greenery and native plantings. The result is a home that combines premium modern design with environmental responsibility—proving that sustainable construction can also deliver the ultimate in comfort and function.

In a walkable neighborhood near the center of town, a historic masonry and timber frame structure has a new future as a residence containing 10 apartments. The property was originally built by the Elks in 1913 and later became a Masonic lodge, which included a bar, kitchen, meeting rooms and office space. The new apartments range from studios, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom units from 500 square feet to 1000 square feet. In conformance with the municipality’s 20% affordable housing requirements, two of the apartment units will be priced as affordable housing. The top floor of the existing building is double-height, allowing for mezzanine space. Apartments are designed as loft style, with modern detailing; a “SoHo aesthetic.” The character of the building is being restored and preserved, and where possible original brick, stucco, and wood are exposed and refinished. The exterior gains a new stair and elevator tower addition, along with new window openings where necessary. A new plaque designed for the building describes its historic roots in Princeton. With the inclusion of a green roof, LEED for Homes certification is being pursued for the project.

The Covington estate renovation of the Joachim Herz House transformed the founder’s former residence on a 3,000-acre Georgia property into a 5,500-square-foot event and meeting facility for the Joachim Herz Stiftung. Designed by Jones Pierce Architects, the renovation and addition combined adaptive reuse with advanced high-performance construction. The completed project achieved EarthCraft Platinum certification, reflecting a strong commitment to energy efficiency, indoor environmental quality, durability, and responsible building practices. Solar power, upgraded building systems, improved envelope performance, and extensive reuse of the existing structure were incorporated while preserving the character of the original residence and its rural setting. Construction on a remote 3,000-acre estate also required careful coordination of trades, equipment, material deliveries, and scheduling. The project demonstrates Eco Custom Homes’ experience with complex renovations, sustainable construction, and high-performance building practices throughout Georgia.
