Stunning Houseboat in Seattle

I must admit I am a bit jealous of Sue, the owner of this Seattle houseboat. The idea of living near water in a cozy home really sounds good to me. It gets better for me with the fact that this houseboat isn't in a tropical place as I couldn't live in constant hot weather. I think Josh and I would be very happy in this home, except it is not where God wants us right now. 

FINNE Architects: Wooded

Lake Forest Park

"Raised in Norway and the United States, Nils Finne established FINNE Architects in Seattle in 1994, bringing a Scandinavian understanding of craft and landscape to the Pacific Northwest. Dedicated to the idea of Crafted Modernism, Nils typically designs custom lighting, furniture, cabinets and hardware for every project."

These houses are rich in wood and fit perfectly in their surrounds, whether near coast or mountains. FINNE's sustainable principles, attention to detail, and unique crafted design give birth to these rich and warm residences. 

This post will focus on FINNE's wooded homes. 

Pacific Northwest Architecture

I love Modern Pacific Northwest Architecture and Interior Design. I would definitely be inspired by this style whenever we build our own house with beautiful hardwood flooring, the use of stone in the exterior as well as in the interior, and the extensive use of windows and open space. It's the perfect combination for a home to feel airy during the summer and cozy during the winter.
