The homeowners desired an outdoor space that felt more rustic than their refined interior spaces, but still related architecturally to their house. Cement plaster support arbor columns provide enough of visual tie to the existing house exterior. Oversized wood beams and rafter members provide a unique outdoor atmosphere. Structural bolts and hardware were minimized for a cleaner appearance. Structural connections and supports were engineered to meet California's stringent earthquake standards. Ali Atri Photography

We took a large kitchen that could be overwhelming and transformed the space to create a sense of intimacy by using earthy materials like the wood beams on the ceiling and wooden cabinetry and mixes of natural stones. The other challenge is the request from the client to have a contemporary approach to the design but making sure that it is still warm and inviting for their use. -Contrasting materials like the heavy blackened steel and granite were used with soft, natural materials to create a balance between serenity and masculinity. What is unique is the play of mix of materials in a variety of finishes from natural sandblasted granite to a honed limestone combine with a solid surface material Caesar Stone. The cabinets (cabinet maker-Mueller Nichols) has two different wood combination from a lighter vertical Eucalyptus and darker vertical Walnut (running horizontal on the cabinets) But the look is subtle since the mix is still overall earthy, natural and tone on tone change. The old beams in the ceiling were used. It was painted over the years so we stripped it down to the natural material and added cross beams to create the grid patterns. Rustic cross beams combine with beautiful phoenician plaster on the ceilings. Built in speakers that can be troweled over with plastering so the speakers are totally hidden in the ceilings. Multi level islands to serve multiple activities from cleaning, prepping, chopping and eating. Butcher block lower level for easy chopping and cantilivered to create a more dynamic and sculptural quality. ce the clients really cook in this kitchen that the list of appliances for extraordinary. Pizza oven, built in coffee maker, steamer, double convection ovens, 6 burner pro style cooktop, 48 inch refrigerator, 2 refrigerator drawers, 2 dishwashers, wine refrigerators etc... Contrasting materials like the heavy dark steel and granite were used with soft, natural materials to create a balance between serenity and masculinity. The seamless windows highlight and connect the indoor and outdoor living spaces. The clients are gourmet cooks that enjoy entertaining and cooking so many types of cooking equipments like a six burner cook top with grill, a brick oven and a speed oven as well as a pantry that is connected to the kitchen were used. There are also two islands in the kitchen which serves different functions. One is used mainly for prepping and cleaning while the other is used as a serving area and a place to gather. Every inch of space in the kitchen is integrated with each other which leaves no room for error and presents a flawless design execution.

The Port Ludlow Residence is a compact, 2400 SF modern house located on a wooded waterfront property at the north end of the Hood Canal, a long, fjord-like arm of western Puget Sound. The house creates a simple glazed living space that opens up to become a front porch to the beautiful Hood Canal. The east-facing house is sited along a high bank, with a wonderful view of the water. The main living volume is completely glazed, with 12-ft. high glass walls facing the view and large, 8-ft.x8-ft. sliding glass doors that open to a slightly raised wood deck, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor space. During the warm summer months, the living area feels like a large, open porch. Anchoring the north end of the living space is a two-story building volume containing several bedrooms and separate his/her office spaces. The interior finishes are simple and elegant, with IPE wood flooring, zebrawood cabinet doors with mahogany end panels, quartz and limestone countertops, and Douglas Fir trim and doors. Exterior materials are completely maintenance-free: metal siding and aluminum windows and doors. The metal siding has an alternating pattern using two different siding profiles. The house has a number of sustainable or “green” building features, including 2x8 construction (40% greater insulation value); generous glass areas to provide natural lighting and ventilation; large overhangs for sun and rain protection; metal siding (recycled steel) for maximum durability, and a heat pump mechanical system for maximum energy efficiency. Sustainable interior finish materials include wood cabinets, linoleum floors, low-VOC paints, and natural wool carpet.
