Vashon Uptown Home

 
 

Award-winning project in the category of “Accessible Design”, American Residential Design Awards

Unless you’re from Vashon Island, a home right in town may not seem unusual. Here on the island, most homes are down long, dirt or gravel driveways tucked amongst fern grottos. This home is unique because it offers a rare walkable location and connection to the uptown activities.

Our dear clients moved here from California, downsizing to be near their grandchildren. With varying ages and abilities using these spaces, living in place was a strong consideration.

Our role:

  • Complete kitchen design to include: cabinet design, finish and fixture selection & lighting plans.

  • Complete master bathroom design to include: cabinet design, finish & fixture selection, and design of the room expansion to provide a roomy walk-in tub/shower space.
