Board & VellumThe owner of this 1960s, low-slung house challenged Board & Vellum to give it a major overhaul. Located across from Puget Sound, the house already had a lot to offer but the dated style, low ceilings, tight spaces and interior walls that blocked Sound views kept it from fulfilling its full potential.
Board & Vellum gutted and reimagined the whole house, giving it a more traditional style. The interior—previously quite dark, thanks to brick- and wood panel-clad walls—was transformed with white trim, bright detailing (such as the hand-glazed tile in the kitchen), and plenty of built-in casework for the homeowner to display the travel mementos she collected throughout her career in the airline industry. Removing a fireplace in the center of the house and opening up the floorplan through to the staircase and entryway lets light flood in and allows for water views from across the main living area and kitchen.
The exterior of the house received a dose of character with brick, corbels, and a curved eyebrow roof above the front entry, which also gave the home office area its distinctive barrel ceiling.

Best Plumbing Tile & StoneThis large galley kitchen was taken down to the studs, and re-imagined to be bright and cheery. The traditional white cabinets feature glass-front doors and hidden features such as pull-out garbage bins, tray storage and dishwasher. The large cast-iron farm house sink from Kohler features double bowls that are separated with a low divider, making it easy to clean large trays and pans.

Julia Mack Design, LLCUpon stepping into this master bedroom for the first time a few design issues immediately struck me. One being the bed placement against what was the original fireplace in the room. The second was the wall and area rug color and the general blandness of the yellow especially against the white of the original paneled door and window moldings. Thirdly, the general fussiness and extensive amount of stuff everywhere. There needed to a more organized way to stay on top of the day to day clutter that accumulates regularly. Photo: Ward Roberts

Spin Design LimitedSpaces are not just ceilings walls and floors, not just colours and how the light catches them. It is the complete picture that brings all the elements of the space together. What makes a house a home is its colour, its texture, the warmth of the carpet, the photos and artwork on the wall, the mementos of a family holiday or art pieces on display. The layering and composition of elements that reflect the different personalities that live in the space.
The entrance sets the tone and style of the house and will be the first impression any guest entering it gets. We used strong colours to really bring the entrance to life.
The feature wallpaper is Elitis Wallpaper Natives Maori. It runs floor to ceiling over two stories and provides the tone for the upstairs areas. The openness created by the floating staircase is credit to Miles Heine from Mccoy + Heine Architects.
