A spacious kitchen that opens onto the main living area. A curvilinear butcher-block island becomes the station for several hands during cooking demonstrations and is always the center of activity at gatherings where food is the highlight. This U-shape layout picks up the quiet sophistication of the home's polished counter-tops, stainless appliances, and sculpted cherry-wood detailing. Photo Credit: Laurie Dickson

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.

The Cordless Blackout Shades for Children are energy-saving and kid-friendly, making these blinds the best fit for children's bedrooms. We offer a wide variety of colors to fit any desired setting or mood. These blinds will completely block outdoor light throughout the night, ensuring privacy and a good night sleep.

This thoughtful niche can serve as built in decorative shelving OR a tidy home office.

3,000 lbs of cold rolled steel was craned into place and soldered and then the staircase was dropped inside. Openings were cut into the side on site to provide daylighting. Repurposed support beams became a cool support for a collection of longboard skateboards. Photos~Nat Rea
