Reframe Residence

Overlooking the Puget Sound near Kingston, WA, this remodel re-orients the house towards the horizon allowing the panorama to wash into the home, inviting the sun, the storms and the fog to the edge of the living room, and offering a sense of total immersion within this unblemished landscape. Opposite this unlimited grandeur, three strategic “nooks” specifically designed for cooking, listening and working provide the private and introverted spaces. Each is treated as an aperture towards the landscape and reaches towards it, all the while remaining carefully sheltered and protective.
