As Seattle architects, we find ample inspiration in our natural surroundings. The Pacific Northwest’s mountains, coast, and evergreens create an ever-present sense of beauty, and we like nothing more than to bring that beauty into home architecture.
Bellevue’s Wood, Stone, and Water project does just that.
The Home
Although settled in a Bellevue neighborhood, Wood, Stone, and Water sits apart from the rest. Curtis took care to tuck it back into its own world, a refuge from the bustle of life and a tribute to natural beauty.
The home begins in grandeur. The main living space boasts vaulted ceilings and expansive windows. Structural beams and posts echo the trees outside, drawing the landscape into the architecture. The kitchen and dining room carry the same glass and structural beauty but on a smaller, more familiar scale. The master bedroom grows cozier still with a custom trellis canopy.
Every space in the home—from the main living room to the secluded study—ties directly to the landscape outside. Each room, each window gazes out on a garden. Beams mimic tree tops and water features allude to ponds and streams. And, of course, natural light floods the home at every opportunity.
