We designed a “tree house” suspended above the ground on glued-laminated timber columns supporting two stories, forty feet above the forest floor. Suquamish means “place of clear water”. The care of the land that drove this residence included simple strategies for capturing rain and percolating storm water, minimal excavation and removal of soils, low-impact concrete foundations, and a light structure that captures views of the forest, water, and a distant Seattle skyline to the east.

The style of architecture was based on a timeless, modern cabin. A simplistic form with quality materials
were chosen to create a minimal yet warm and slightly rustic appearance. The exterior materials were
based on a contemporary interpretation of the materials in the surrounding vicinity/community. The interior
finishes will be a combination of cedar ceilings, walnut cabinets & flooring, locally sourced stone tops, locally
sourced dry-stacked stone veneer, dark warm grey walls & Douglas Fir trim, doors & windows. All woods
will be clear coated & not tinted to avoid trends through the generations.
The overall form is abstractly based on a structure that grows from the adjacent mountain extends up/out
and folds back down into the ground by the use of angled columns supporting the exterior deck.
The spaces were designed to afford a family of five to comfortably live seasonally. A loft over the garage
provides space for guests and an office.
This particular site was chosen by the client for its accessibility & creek view/sounds. The design concept
was driven by the desire to maximize creek exposure as well as enjoying the cabin from the inside out. Lift
and Slide doors from the great room on two walls open onto a large deck (partially covered and partially
open) provides ample outdoor space to enjoy nature.
The cabin will be enjoyed by several generations ages 2-65+ & will not have steps to make the more
seasoned generation able to visit & enjoy the cabin for years to come.
