YEAR
2009
SIZE
3000 sqft - 5000 sqft
Located on the west side of Mercer Island, this house is
a reconstruction of one of architect Fred Bassetti’s earliest designs built in 1962.
Fronting a busy street, we wanted to root the house to its sloping wooded site
and provide a protective shelter for family life.  The plan is opened up allowing for large
gathering spaces and perspectives throughout the full length of the
house.  A new metal skin with interior cedar
liner wraps over the roof and grounds the house to the site.  An aluminum bar grating screen encloses an
exterior patio and deck filtering interior views and forming a sparkling and
diaphanous wall from the street.  The
entry approach is redesigned with a cantilevered concrete landing in a sunken
courtyard and a 5’ x 11’ pivot door to the interior.  Bathing spaces are ethereally bright, smooth
and seamless.  Materials throughout
are natural but installed and crafted in an extremely crisp manner.
