Luxury Residence Design Architecture Glass Home Decorating

Luxury residence designed by Olson Kundig Architects, located in Seattle, Washington. This modern glass home is simple and direct, eschewing doors and glass walls for a relatively open plan, and uses straightforward materials like raw steel, elm flooring and ash cabinetry.

Description from Architects:

The clients wanted a house to serve as a base-of-action for their travels and other pursuits. The design involved completely reworking the interior of an existing 1,800-square-foot home and opening it up to the exterior through decks and window walls while keeping the essential box-like quality of the house intact. The house is simple and direct, eschewing doors and walls for a relatively open plan; and uses straightforward materials like raw steel, elm flooring and ash cabinetry. A raw-steel staircase and catwalk connect the levels and rooms of the house.
