This fun bedroom is the showpiece of our second story addition. Our goal was to have the whole second floor feel like it was original to the 1900's house. We designed the Brick wall to follow the original rotunda on the main floor (see dining room photos). Just like the exposed brick on the main floor, we exposed brick in this room for continuity and character. The closet is concealed by barn doors and the vaulted ceiling reveals the exposed beams. For decor, we added a fun orange upholstered headboard and accessories and a gray printed drum light.

In Seattle’s North Admiral neighborhood, this project began with a tear-down lot and the vision to create something new that still felt timeless. Built as a spec home, the design carefully considered the character of the surrounding homes, blending seamlessly into the block as if it had always been part of the community. Inside, warm finishes and natural wood cabinetry bring a sense of comfort and authenticity, while modern touches elevate the living experience. A two-sided gas fireplace creates cozy ambiance for cool Pacific Northwest nights, and a wet bar offers the perfect setup for entertaining. The primary suite features a spacious soaking tub, balancing everyday function with a touch of luxury. With four bedrooms and a detached alley-access garage, this home provides both convenience and charm. Thoughtfully designed from the ground up, it stands as a classic addition to the neighborhood — honoring tradition while embracing modern living.
