Inspiration for a rustic brown one-story wood gable roof remodel in Seattle

Located in, Summit Park, Park City UT lies one of the most efficient houses in the country. The Summit Haus – designed and built by Chris Price of PCD+B, is an exploration in design and construction of advanced high performance housing. Seeing a rising demand for sustainable housing along with rising Carbon emissions leading to global warming, this house strives to show that sensible, good design can create spaces adequate for today’s housing demands while adhering to strict standards. The house was designed to meet the very rigid Passiv House rating system – 90% more efficient than a typical home in the area. The house itself was intended to nestle neatly into the 45 degree sloped site and to take full advantage of the limited solar access and views. The views range from short, highly wooded views to a long corridor out towards the Uinta Mountain range towards the east. The house was designed and built based off Passiv Haus standards, and the framing and ventilation became critical elements to maintain such minimal energy requirements. Zola triple-pane, tilt-and-turn Thermo uPVC windows contribute substantially to the home’s energy efficiency, and takes advantage of the beautiful surrounding of the location, including forrest views from the deck off of the kitchen.

This is a guest bedroom that doubles as an office. The Barnes were anxious to have a little more space to office in than what was available. We accomplished that effect by moving the window out. Added built-ins on either side supplied much needed office storage, which included 2 lateral file drawers, an additional pull-out work surface, and a substantial amount of extra closed storage. Always necessary in high-rise living. Photo by Kati Mallory.

THOMAS is an elegant chair with a high seat cushion that rises from the ground, a substantial block resting on a wooden base. The curved wooden back completes the strikingly original proportions. THOMAS looks almost like a big ottoman with a wooden back, where the upholstered part is the true heart of the design. With a removable fabric or leather cover, also ideal for public spaces and VIP lounges.

Focusing on artistic quality not quantity, Chet Redmon, owner of CR Custom Ironworks, forges designs for his customers that you won’t find anywhere else. “People want to see more substantial size in scrollwork,” notes Redmon, “and the popularity of the floating winding staircase is also on the rise.” This staircase shows how curves have taken over in staircase design and can be complemented by custom made chandeliers, like this 30’ long chandelier consisting of 47 hand blown globes, designed and built by Redmon.

Overlooking the picturesque Rogue Valley, this aging-in-place residence artfully aligns with the needs of an octogenarian couple. Spaces are designed like a spiraling shell whose central axis is the Great Room. Three substantial lightboxes rise above the cathedral ceiling to bathe the space in natural indirect sunlight. An open kitchen engaging with the dining and living areas promotes and supports engagement between the residents and care providers. Each area of this spacious center offers panoramic views, from the stunning Madrones on the lawn to the beautiful cloud-raked Klamath Mountains beyond.

Pale textured stone rises from the raised hearth to the ceiling, with a substantial wood mantel beneath the television. Window shutters flank the fireplace, and broad wood flooring continues through the seating area.

Named after a fun game, Hulahoop is the new family of tables designed by Alessandro Busana for Bonaldo. The name itself conveys the substantial aspects of the design: appeal and dynamism, summed up in a simple circular element developed in space. Hulahoop is characterized by a minimal table top and a frame comprising metallic rings which, owing to perspective, overlap one another, giving rise to a graphic pattern capable of rendering a dynamic image that changes every time depending on the viewpoint.
