Co-designed and built by Architects Lauren Woodward and Geoff Belau of Silo Architecture and Design, this 1800 S.F. residence was inspired by the industrial and ethnic character of its south Seattle neighborhood, the mid-century Case Study House movement, and environmental responsibility. It is intentionally modest in size, site-embracing, open, and light-filled. The house incorporates structural insulated panels, a green roof, salvaged finish materials (slate counters and wood floors), courtyard with reflecting pool and buried cistern, native plantings, kitchen garden, and backyard orchard.
