Public Spaces

This sweet, immaculate home has an open floor plan with comfortable flow from the living, dining to kitchen. It is quite calming in the compactness and sense of dialed down living spaces. Well-maintained original doug fir flooring and loads of windows infuse the home with light and warmth. Curved archways, exposed wood beams, the best tiled backsplash we’ve ever seen,  and cool designer lighting add a hip aesthetic.

The studio is warm and inviting with an all wood clad interior of vaulted ceilings, plywood walls and pine flooring.

A poem
for the home

this home will hold journeys within

a setting for launch and reach

you can chill and still be moving

the backyard, dormer and kitchen wish 

greatness of place 

the whole breathes binding wreaths

 

we hold a long circle thought of home

and gaze amaze gather

orchid birds willow echo

our solace and reflection

on lamb cloud stone path

to rooms where we seek self
