Seattle Penthouse

Living and dining spaces are defined by a high wood slat ceiling, which sets them apart from the raised kitchen. A custom two-sided fireplace creates flow from the living room to the piano salon and a linear boardwalk feeds each space, leading the eye toward the horizon. The clients wanted a highly versatile work/guest/craft room in a small footprint, which was achieved through custom cabinetry disguising a hide-a-bed and a swing-out desk. This 3,080-square-foot interior, designed in collaboration with Terry Hunziker, allows the architecture and furnishing to recede in order to give center stage to the art collection and the penthouse’s stunning vistas. The studio’s relationship with these clients began through a recommendation by a late friend; his spirit lives on in this and another property, located on Camano Island.
