The plan was to create a modern beach house with inspiration from Japan and the Pacific Northwest. The site is located on the edge of the Puget Sound in Washington State. This "tea house" is a completely re-imagined addition and remodel to a 1930’s cottage. The solution involved the addition of a new master bedroom pavilion perched to catch the view. This new wing and the existing great room with its large glass sliding door enclose a new courtyard for outdoor entertaining. The interiors are composed of clean white walls accented with rustic wood framing and the owners' extensive art collection.
