Leschi Remodel

by OSC

Seattle, WA This remodel expands the existing traditional home from a small three-bedroom home to a four-bedroom house with a family room on the upper level. The second-story addition cantilevers over the existing footprint of the house, giving it a dynamic contemporary character while also allowing for reduced site disturbance to environmental critical area (ECA) hillside behind the house.  A new roof deck takes advantage of the site’s view of Lake Washington while also capturing new views of Mount Rainier.

Having outgrown their original 600 bottle capacity cellar, Grouparchitect worked with them to design a 1700 bottle cellar that would retain the craftsman detailing and archways of their home while making a social space for wine tasting and viewing.

by OSC
November 1, 2002

Seattle, WA This remodel is to a 1900 era Phinney Ridge-Greenwood-Greenlake residence. Over the years, the home had been renovated numerous times and used as a rental, resulting in dated finishes in poor condition.

The 1950s kitchen was gutted and reconfigured into a modern kitchen by the homeowners on a modest budget with cabinets...

Mercer Island Residence

by OSC
September 1, 2002

Mercer Island, WA This existing home atop a hillside presented a unique challenge to bring the proposed deck and addition together with the existing home and garage, both of which were of differing architectural styles and histories. The design solution was ultimately one of simplicity due to the selection of the new siding material as a cedar lap siding with a clear exterior stain throughout all areas of work. The result was a warm, inviting, and unified building aesthetic. Highlights of...
