The FINNE Svendsen Building is a striking and highly energy-efficient loft building in Seattle’s Fremont neighborhood.
The design and building process was unusual, since architect Nils Finne was both designer and builder owner. The client-architect meetings were brief!
The building occupies a corner lot, with street facades on the south and west. The two street facades have a nuanced play of light and shadow. The walls of glass and wood are treated as folded planes, with each façade folding back and forth within an overall depth dimension of about 10”. On floors one and three, the large glass panels project forward, while on floor two, the glass is recessed. The pattern on floor two is an inverted version of floors one and three. The wood spandrel panels are custom-milled Western Red Cedar with a blackened stain.
The live-work building creates large, open loft spaces on three floors, with high ceilings, huge windows and exposed long-span steel structure. The building can accommodate a range of uses, both present and future.
The three floors of the building have 12-ft ceilings and 11-ft high windows with exposed structural steel supports and steel decking ceilings. The floors are clear-span without internal columns interrupting the work space. Mechanical air distribution is limited to the linear core on the northern side of the building, so work areas have clean metal decking ceilings with no ductwork. The building has in-floor radiant heating and cooling, resulting in minimal energy usage.
Operating windows are placed strategically throughout the façade, allowing the building to be naturally ventilated in Seattle’s mild climate. The oversized window walls on the south and west also allow natural lighting to penetrate deeply onto the floor plate, keeping lights turned off for much of the daylight hours.
A custom sapele wood front door presents a warm contrast to the building’s blackened wood cladding. A delicate screen of wood slats filters light into the main building lobby. The 3-story stair opens directly from the lobby and has been designed to encourage use on a daily basis, keeping elevator usage to a minimum. A three-story glass wall floods the stairwell with natural light, and the all-steel stair floats in the space. Custom-designed perforations in the steel stair railing panels provide unexpected shadow patterns when the late-afternoon sun shines into the stairwell.
The building was designed to be a sustainable structure from the start, with 40% higher insulation values than required by code, efficient natural ventilation, large amounts of natural lighting, water-conserving plumbing fixtures, LED lighting, and locally sourced materials. Windows have high-performance Low-E insulated glazing and are equipped with concealed shades. The building roof has been equipped with photovoltaic panels for electrical production, averaging about 850 Kwh per year. The modest initial amount of PV panels will be expanded over time.
The radiant hydronic heating and cooling system allows lower operating temperatures and higher occupant comfort levels. The 6” thick concrete slabs for the radiant tubes conserve both heat in the winter and cooling in the summer and provide great comfort for the feet. During the winter months, the radiant heating system keeps overall energy consumption to a very low level. The 9000 SF building costs about $35/month to heat! During the summer, the passive strategies of natural ventilation combine with the radiant slab cooling to minimize air conditioning load. Deep roof overhangs, built-in shades and high operating clerestory windows are also used to reduce heat gain in summer months.
During the winter, the lower sun angle is able to penetrate into work spaces and passively warm the concrete floor. Low VOC paints and stains have been used throughout the building. The high level of craft evident in the building reflects another key principle of sustainable design: eschew “throw-away-ism” and make the building last many years!

The catalytic 36 Elite wood burning fireplace, heats like a furnace and always attracts admiring glances. It features high efficiency cheery flames and Posi-Pressure™ heating through a quiet, remotely located 388 CFM fan which circulates the heat throughout the home. The 36 Elite also has an optional firescreen so you can use your fireplace with the doors open when you are not using the Elite to heat. After you’ve taken one look you can see why this is the only wood fireplace line that can be called extraordinary.

HPC has been selling the ambiance of fire through being the leader in Fire Pit Inserts for many years with our wide range of shapes, sizes, and technologies. What better way to compliment fire than to add the elegance and soothing sound of a shear, running water.

The Evolution 360 is made of durable, weather resistant, black polyethylene and engineered to last - no on-site guesswork.

This is the kitchen area in our Off The Grid Frontier Cabin. This is right inside the front door. This was part of Weaver Barns' largest display ever at the Great Big Home and Garden Show in Cleveland, Ohio. We built this beautiful cabin inside the I-X Center in Cleveland so there wasn't much natural light. Once it is built outside though, these beautiful windows let in a great amount of light. This Cabin can run fully off of the Solar Panels that are optional. A state of the art generator stores the solar power and can run everything including the fridge. The wood burning furnace adds warmth to this cabin and a traditional feel to the room. The furniture was provided by our sister company Weaver's Fine Furniture of Sugarcreek. Our Amish Country Builders crafted this cabin beautifully and is ready to be used as a primary home, hunting cabin or secret retreat.

The standard duration of a roof is roughly many years. If the roof is under few years old yet you are having problems, it will probably be able to get repaired instead of being forced to put up a brand-new roof. Even so, if your roof exceeds this age it usually is recommended to put in a new roof. To complete both fixes and new installs, a roofing contractor should be employed. A roofing contractor will be able to perfectly put in or service roofing components to make certain a good quality end product.
Before employing a residential roofing Auckland contractor it's always a good idea to get recommendations from family or friends. No matter whether you have recommendations, acquire several bids prior to figuring out the roofing company to hire. A bid ought to be thorough and encompass the work to be conducted, expense, and time-frame to finish. Make certain clean up is included in the offered cost. If you would like save money, offer to complete the cleanup yourself.
Ask the roofer for how long they've been in business. Roofing contractors with numerous years experience are preferred. Additionally, make certain they have a physical address. Many roofing rip-offs are carried out by folks operating out of a truck without any legitimate business licenses or permanent street address. Obtain recommendations and verify them. Roofers should be properly insured. Request verification of insurance coverage to be certain you are shielded from any damage to your house.
The residential roofing Auckland repairs and new roofs may require particular building permits. Make sure the enterprise you deal with knows community building regulations and that they acquire the right licenses or permits. Many cities also need to have inspections during particular stages of construction and a final inspection when the work is complete. Examine your community building codes to be sure the roofer is adhering to all codes. You may be liable if this does not occur.
Before starting the task get a contract. This would include every detail of the project, period of time to finish, and cost. It needs to clearly define payment procedures and warranties. Furthermore, make certain the contract declares they are liable for clean up. Roof elements can be very messy and you should not need to clean up and dispose of waste yourself. However remember you can save a little money if you choose to take on the cleanup process yourself. Don't be rushed into choosing a residential roofing Auckland contractor. Take time to talk to prospective roofers and check out expertise and recommendations. Roof maintenance can be costly and a new roof is really a major investment. Protect your house through doing a bit of analysis. Hire the roofing contractor that has the best mix of expertise and expense and with which you feel most confident.
