This proposed contemporary home will be located on a bluff overlooking Lake Washington on Mercer Island. The unique property is located at the end of a private drive with clear unobstructed views of the lake and Mt. Rainier. The home is contemporary in plan and detail with materials and proportions that tie it to its more traditional neighbors. Metal roofing and concrete wall planes are softened by wood window walls and clear cedar siding. The simple L-shape plan maximizes the view potential while integrating the home into the expansive property which drops off into a densely vegetated hillside towards the lake.
