Hat Island Beachfront Residence by Bjarko | Serra Architects

March 12, 2010 Filed Under: Beach House  

This beautiful vacation retreat of the Hat Island beachfront residence located near Seattle, Washington is designed by Bjarko | Serra Architects consists of two separate buildings for 2 families containing 5 bedrooms on a compact site – one for living and eating, and the other for sleeping. This beachfront hat island residence is on a narrow waterfront site situated in a relatively dense beach front development of single family homes.

At the two separate buildings volume, the separate bedroom wing provides extra privacy, so late-night entertaining does not disturb sleeping children or weary parents, as the case may be. Extensive water views, generous decks, and the sheltering orientation of the two buildings contribute to a fluid relationship between living areas and the surrounding seascape.

The homeowners’ desire was to have a modern vacation house that maximizes the unique beach site and provides a comfortable central gathering space to experience the waterfront and accommodate passive activities. The property and house are co-owned by 2 families, so the design had to provide sufficient space for large groups sharing the facilities.

This beachfront residence building materials include Western Red Cedar channel siding over a rainscreen system, Cembonit cement panels over a rainscreen system, Tigerwood decking, galvanized railings, standing seam metal roofing.
