Sometimes a project comes along that the crew wants to work on. The client is amazing, its in a great location, the design elements are interesting, and it desperately needs an update! This bungalow on Chuckanut Drive had good bones and tons of potential and yes, was in desperate need of modernization!
Our crew – guided by the sophisticated taste of our client & design team – reimagined, gutted, cleaned, and fully updated the space. It now glows with natural light, accentuating the herringbone white oak floors and marble countertops. It also just works better. In the kitchen the island adds both function and interest, the rangehood dramatically improves the indoor air quality, and there’s abundant built in storage. It’s not enough to be beautiful, the space also has to be super functional.
One of the things we love most about this home is the streamlined. There is uniform flooring throughout the house, the two bathrooms have similar finishes, and the cabinetry is all alder wood. Everything just fits together.
Of course, every project needs a little pizzazz. The powder room adds it, in the perfect microdose.
