tucked discreetly into the natural landscape above puget sound, this extraordinary suyama peterson deguchi-designed residence is a rare architectural offering where modernism and the pacific northwest environment exist in complete harmony. conceived with the restraint, precision, and reverence for nature that define the firm’s internationally celebrated work, the home unfolds as a sequence of carefully choreographed spaces immersed in light, texture, and landscape. walls of floor-to-ceiling glass dissolve the distinction between indoors and out, capturing panoramic western views. principal spaces are gallery-like in scale and detail, with expansive hand-laid italian granite floors, museum-finish walls, integrated lighting, floating planes, and meticulously crafted built-ins creating an environment equally suited for significant art collections and sophisticated entertaining. despite the home’s architectural rigor, the interiors feel warm and deeply livable. natural materials, filtered northwest light, and lush surrounding gardens soften the modernism and create a pervasive sense of tranquility. intimate passages open dramatically into expansive entertaining spaces and broad terraces overlooking the sound, while mature gardens, pathways, and reflecting water elements create a profound connection to the landscape. architecturally significant residences of this caliber rarely become available.
