The single-volume home has been designed to appear to float over the lot on its deck. Ryan upgraded the existing foundation to support its passive design. "Originally, I wanted to make the whole house powered with wood pellets," he says. "But I decided against shoveling pellets in the snow. I'll get weird in a little bit less of a cold climate."

The basement’s kitchenette was moved to a more central location and updated with contemporary colors and finishes. Custom cabinetry was painted in Benjamin Moore’s Spiced Apple Cider to add some brightness to a space that leans on the dark side. Daltile’s Keystones tile in Artic White was also used on the walls in the nearby bathroom.

Downstairs, the bathroom is less colorful, embracing texture and material to achieve its calming, minimal vibe. Here, a custom oak vanity anchors the space. The curve of the Rejuvenation mirror nods to the arch of the Kohler faucet. A Caesarstone quartz countertop and Daltile wall tiles round out the room, while Scout Regalia’s SR wall hooks provide a pop of color.

In the primary bedroom, an extended window above the bed lets in more natural light. Cynthia loves to send her daughters snapshots of the wildlife and sunsets she sees from her room.

Sitting jauntily on its block, this renovated residence in Seattle’s Mount Baker neighborhood retained the original home’s footprint. The architect (and daughter of the homeowner) opened up the living spaces inside and overhauled the exterior and landscaping to give it a more contemporary presence. Cambium Landscape created the outdoor spaces which perfectly balance hardscape with greenery.

A  storage niche just inside the garage entry has three minty-green Shelfology Doohicky hooks and a shoe shelf. Heated terrazzo floors in the kitchen were the idea of one of the homeowner’s daughters, Sarah Smith, who was the lead architect on the project.
