The "Spruce Creek '' house is the embodiment of a client's vision come to life. Designed around a mountain modern aesthetic with robust rustic features, this home truly defines Alaskan living at it’s finest. The home is mindfully situated on the slopes of the Chugach Mountains, allowing itself to open up to breathtaking views of Cook Inlet from every room. The combination of the home’s open floor plan, natural wood interior selections and soapstone fireplace truly encapsulates the feeling of contentment: mountain hygge.
GIRDWOOD MODERN
Situated at the base of Mount Alyeska, our clients were inspired to custom build a modern house around their family's love for the mountains. The original house was lifted up 10' to create a basement, to accommodate their growing family. The house is centered around large Great Room windows, that picture frame the slopes and illuminates the interior steel framing and soaring vaulted wood ceilings. The mixture of natural wood, concrete and steel, within the canopy of the rainforest, enhances the home’s appeal.
NORTHWEST RUSTIC
Architecturally designed for a large family, this home was placed on forested acre+ lot for maximum privacy. Stacking the 2 story great room with windows, ensures all the entertaining spaces enjoy the outdoors. Many thoughtful interior touches include the aligned wooden beams spanning the great room, an open steel and wood staircase, the chef’s inspired kitchen, the luxurious master suite, a basement filled with recreational spaces and a oversized 4 car garage.
