8 West Residenceeclipse2021-11-08T22:55:21+00:00

Perched above Elliott Bay on a tiny 2,020 square foot triangular lot on the west side of Queen Ann hill, this new custom residence features almost 3,000 square feet of living space.

The form of the house reflects the marine environment below, evoking sails and hulls. Three bedrooms, three and one-half bathrooms, open living, kitchen, and dining spaces, garages, a wine room and a work loft are all incorporated into a gull-wing shell that sits on a solid concrete base.

Generous eating/play terraces face the views of the bay and West Seattle to the southwest while a small sunken garden to the north is designed to celebrate the houses’ rainwater. A large swath of Seattle Parks + Recreation land to the east of the residence was reclaimed and landscaped for use by the residents.

I hired Tim several months ago to design my new home on Lake Sammamish in Bellevue, Washington. I have been extremely impressed with what Tim and his associates have delivered.

If you review the projects on the Rhodes Architecture web site, you will find a wide variety of designs, but it is also clear that they are all guided by a consistent vision of what constitutes a livable house and how everyday materials can be applied in sometimes surprising ways to provide a truly satisfying built environment.

On the house front, his team’s approach to designing a house really appeals to us – they spend a lot of time assessing our needs (esthetic, budget, practical) and understanding our lifestyle

I had the pleasure of working with Tim Rhodes on an extensive remodel in West Seattle. Tim redesigned a dreary three story single family residence into a stunning five story modern dwelling.
