House of Planes

Located in the middle of a block, known as a “flag lot”. The design was conceived as a U-shape wrapping around a private courtyard with the swimming pool and spa as the primary focus. The courtyard also frames views of the mountains to the west. Multiple outdoor living spaces are created with deep roof overhangs and a “ramada”

This new home nestles amongst the trees of a watershed to take advantage of smaller moments of privacy in an otherwise urban environment. Mid-century lines divide airy interior volumes anchored by a concrete garage.

Situated on a gently sloping narrow lot in Kirkland, WA, large windows and an open floor plan fill this contemporary brick home with light, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors.
