Images by Nic LeHoux Designed as a home and studio for a photographer and his young family, Lightbox is located on a peninsula that extends south from British Columbia across the border to Point Roberts. The densely forested site lies beside a 180-acre park that overlooks the Strait of Georgia, the San Juan Islands and the Puget Sound. Having experienced the world from under a black focusing cloth and large format camera lens, the photographer has a special fondness for simplicity and an appreciation of unique, genuine and well-crafted details. The home was made decidedly modest, in size and means, with a building skin utilizing simple materials in a straightforward yet innovative configuration. The result is a structure crafted from affordable and common materials such as exposed wood two-bys that form the structural frame and directly support a prefabricated aluminum window system of standard glazing units uniformly sized to reduce the complexity and overall cost. Accessed from the west on a sloped boardwalk that bisects its two contrasting forms, the house sits lightly on the land above the forest floor. A south facing two-story glassy cage for living captures the sun and view as it celebrates the interplay of light and shadow in the forest. To the north, stairs are contained in a thin wooden box stained black with a traditional Finnish pine tar coating. Narrow apertures in the otherwise solid dark wooden wall sharply focus the vibrant cropped views of the old growth fir trees at the edge of the deep forest. Lightbox is an uncomplicated yet powerful gesture that enables one to view the subtlety and beauty of the site while providing comfort and pleasure in the constantly changing light of the forest.

A continuous run of custom drawers maximizes storage while maintaining clean, uninterrupted sightlines throughout the galley kitchen. The remodel retained the existing dark floor tile, coordinating the new gray shaker cabinetry, porcelain slab countertops, and white ceramic subway tile backsplash to reduce waste while creating a cohesive, updated design.

The owners of this custom home wanted to update it to reflect their esthetic. A large soaking tub was removed, window reduced in size, roofline modified and the commode room was restructured to incorporate a new Linen closet. Grey and black mosaic tiles for the floor and a basket weave gray and black shower floor, bring the room together. New Cherry with a dark stain built out the closet. A new island dresser was installed and large shoe cubbie wall was installed. The shower is walk in, no door. His and Hers niches, Kohler DTV showering system makes this a pleasure to wake up to every morning.

A retired university professor and his wife wanted to modernize their kitchen's style and add storage to reduce clutter. Working with a local interior designer, San Luis Kitchen provided a stunning new kitchen in a sleek contemporary style -- Brookhaven's Bridgeport. We preserved the existing wood floor; added lots of storage including two appliance garages, a spice column, double trash cabinet and lazy susan; and, most importantly, gave the homeowners wall cabinets for that much needed storage. Simple cherry cabinets in a dark finish, black counters, and semi-translucent glass contribute to the modern aesthetic. Cabinet design/cabinetry: San Luis Kitchen Interior Design: Gail Congdon

It's fitting that the entrance to the ensuite features a custom barn sliding door for this farmhouse. Set off by dramatic black hardware, this door makes a statement for sure! Photo by Brice Ferre
