Madrona Residence, Modern Minimalist House by Vandeventer + Carlander Architects
September 30th, 2009 - Posted in Minimalist House, Modern HouseMadrona Residence is single family residence located in Seattle, Washington. The Madrona Residence was designed by Vandeventer + Carlander Architects with modern minimalist house design. Built with low energy for lighting source, the lighting using natural light and views yet maintains privacy.
Designed for a young couple, the wife desired to live at “grade” and the husband to “dwell” in the sky. The plan evolved with public living spaces on the ground floor, private bedrooms on the second, and a shared office opening onto rooftop desks on the third. A linear floor plan allows for a very efficient layout and a compact service core. The south facade features large expanses of glass and is protected by a cedar sun screen. Materials used include clear cedar siding and fibre cement panels.
