Floating Modern Home on Lake Union

Floating Modern Home on Lake Union -

This house is locate in the area where floating home construction is a longstanding tradition - Lake Union, Seattle. Although it is surrounded by other similar houses, it has much more modern design and good look. The site is very small but architects managed to create a great place to live like that for entertainment. The private area is located at the float while public ares were second. The entrance, the rooms, the bathroom and master bedroom are located one at the float. There is also a private terrace accessed only from the master bedroom. All areas of the second floor are combined together to provide a great entertainment venue. There is also another terrace accessible by sliding wall there.

The materials used in construction have chosen to create a modern look for their aesthetic qualities and low maintenance. Aluminum, yellow cedar and cement fiber boards are some of them. [Vandeventer + Carlander Architects]
