GENE MORRIS ARCHITECT
Urban infill projects fill in the "missing teeth" of the city streetscape. As such, many neighborhoods require a design continuity that respects the history and fabric of the existing buildings. This urban infill project is located in the Ballard Historic District. The street facade presents a neighborhood compatible retail front with residential windows above. Behind the facade is a courtyard surrounded by six townhomes .
This urban infill building is in the Wallingford Commercial District. Designed to fit seamlessly into the existing neighborhood, it incorporates street level design elements already in play. The first floor includes a commercial/restaurant space, lobby to upper floors and parking. There are fourteen condominiums in the floors above including a duplex penthouse with planted roof deck.
This home, on a country lane above the Green River, is designed for a couple who are developing their 21st century farmstead. The home is deceptively high tech and will be essentially "off the grid". Translucent overhangs protect the house from the wet while welcoming the light into the interior. Solar panels will provide power needs. A hydronic in-floor heating system will harvest energy from a nearby aquifer.
This house remodel began with a circa 1925 Tudor revival. Built on a challenging site, its triangular lot slopes at a critical angle from street to street. The existing structure came close to the maximum lot coverage allowed and it also approached the maximum height allowance. Foremost our client wanted to retain the house's Tudor character. Working with these elements our task was to expand the floor plan horizontally, add a third floor and assure that the remodel would withstand an earthquake.
This is a very simple energy efficient warehouse building located in East Wenatchee near the Columbia River. It is a clear-span steel frame structure clad with steel sandwich panels that provide insulation equivalent to typical new homes. Prismatic skylights will distribute light throughout the space and a Humongous ceiling fan will disperse the heat throughout. Employees joke about the current structure they work in. The uninsulated space is alternatively known as a deep freeze or an oven. Rightfully so, they are looking forward to improved working conditions.
