The project is a remodel of an existing house in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle. Bringing light into the home and creating a stronger connection to the outdoors were important aspects of the renovation. In addition to extensive skylights, the rear of the house was transformed with the addition of a 10’x10’ custom designed jalousie window, and large sliding and pivoting windows and doors. On the upper level, sliding glass doors in the master bedroom provide access to an exterior deck with built-in plantings.
