Meydenbauer Bay Residence
Zoning restrictions meant that we could alter the overall mass of this house only minimally. So the project was really about peeling off some misguided layers of renovations. The original house was a pretty cool 1970s northwest modern lake house, but then in the 80s and 90s, someone added an unfortunate English country veneer. In addition to adapting the house to our client’s specific needs, we tried to return it to it simple modern origins.
Scope:
Gut renovation of an existing house.
