Large traditional blue two-story wood exterior home idea in Seattle

Tim & Elissa have a beautiful home in the most desirable Wyomissing neighborhood. Broad sidewalks under stately oaks, with nearby parks makes it a perfect place to raise a growing family. But their 2-bedroom mid-century rancher was becoming a squeeze. They asked Spring Creek Design to come up with a cost-effective solution to their space problem, while also tackling some of the home’s aged infrastructure. Design Criteria: - Increase living space by adding a new 2nd storey Master Suite. - Enhance livability with an open floorplan on the first floor. - Improve the connection to the outdoors. - Update basics systems with new windows, HVAC and insulation. - Update interior with paint & refinished floors. Special Features: - Bright, mid-century modern design is true to the home’s vintage. - Custom steel cable railings at both stairways. - New open plan creates strong connections between kitchen, living room, dining room and deck. - High-performance Pella windows throughout, including a new triple-panel slider to the deck.

Komfoo house interior designed by STUDIO KONDE Konrad Idaszewski Architekt, an interior architecture project from Poznań focused on creating a comfortable contemporary home with a strong sense of warmth and carefully balanced proportions. Visit the full project: https://conde.pl/portfolio/gotowy-projekt-wnetrz-domu-komfoo/ As part of the Modelowedomy collection of three individually configurable houses, Komfoo offers a high living room with a mezzanine, while the kitchen and dining area are separated from the living space by a functional furniture wall, creating distinct zones while preserving the spacious character of the home. This living room combines natural timber, soft neutral upholstery and carefully selected architectural details to create a warm and sophisticated interior. Generous glazing, a high vaulted ceiling and a freestanding wood-burning stove give the space a distinctive character, while the restrained palette of beige, cream, taupe and warm wood keeps the composition calm and cohesive. A generous U-shaped sectional sofa upholstered in light beige fabric occupies the main seating zone, with deep cushions and broad chaise sections creating an inviting arrangement for relaxation. Several large cushions in matching neutral tones soften the substantial form of the sofa, while loosely folded throws add texture and a more relaxed residential character. In front of the seating, two overlapping round coffee tables introduce a contrasting dark element, with smooth black tops set on vertically fluted cylindrical bases. The seating arrangement rests on a large woven rug with a pronounced looped texture and a subtle geometric pattern. Its warm cream and beige tones complement the light timber flooring and visually gather the sofa and coffee tables into a defined lounge area. A small stack of books on one of the tables provides a discreet everyday detail, while the dark furniture creates a clear contrast against the predominantly light interior. One of the strongest features of the room is the fireplace zone positioned along the left-hand wall. A freestanding black wood-burning stove sits on a large light-coloured hearth, with the visible flames introducing a warm glow and a lively accent to the otherwise restrained interior. Beside it, a minimalist black metal log holder displays neatly stacked firewood, while slender fireplace tools stand nearby. The tall black flue rises from the stove towards the ceiling, emphasizing the impressive height of the living room. Behind the fireplace, the wall is covered with narrow vertical white slats that create a finely textured surface and reinforce the room's vertical proportions. Above, the pitched ceiling is finished with large natural timber panels framed by visible wooden beams, bringing warmth and a subtle reference to the architecture of the house. The combination of ribbed wall cladding and exposed timber overhead creates a distinctive backdrop for the fireplace and seating area. Full-height glazing occupies much of the rear façade, opening the living room towards the garden and filling the interior with soft daylight. Sheer vertical blinds filter the light across the windows, while long taupe-grey curtains frame the glazing and add depth to the neutral palette. Mature trees, lawn and a white garden fence are visible outside, providing a natural backdrop to the warm interior. Suspended within the high ceiling volume, a simple cylindrical pendant adds a soft architectural lighting element above the seating area. Its clean white form remains deliberately understated against the timber structure and textured wall surfaces. Through the combination of the vaulted ceiling, natural wood, ribbed wall finish, sculptural coffee tables, generous sectional sofa and freestanding fireplace, the Komfoo living room achieves a comfortable and refined character that reflects the interior architecture approach of STUDIO KONDE and its work as an interior architect in Poznań.

The effort to create an intimate estate with this Arts and Crafts residence involved extensive interaction with architects, engineers, and clients. Key program elements were strong connections to the house architecture within the landscape, formal entry, pool terracing w/ multiple entertaining spaces, and the creation of strong sightlines from the key house elements. The front drive was carefully routed around existing mature trees that had specific tree preservation methods such as vertical mulching, root injections, and root pruning were undertaken as best management practices. The drive, bluestone chip and seal with a granite curb, brought the architecture into the landscape by playing off colors in the slate roof to further tie everything together. Also flanking the front drive, is a pseudo ha-ha wall that plays homage to its French/English roots. Landscapes overall were kept relatively formal and simple in the front to blend with the architecture and allow the client to make use of annual bedding areas as they found appropriate. In the rear, most elements incorporated simple hedge rows, with accents at the corners. A key sightline from the rear turret across the pool was the main focus and centerline that most elements got their symmetry. With this view, it was deemed important to create a focal at the other end. A rear rose garden flanks either side of the pool house giving a strong focal point across the pool area. The backyard had the space, but the overall topography and programming elements to create the specific outdoor rooms that the client was requesting, took extensive foresight and planning. The client was looking for spaces to relax in all months of the year, this was accomplished by upper patio spaces near the exterior fireplace and dining room for cooler months and an outdoor kitchen area closer to the pool for summer months.
