PURE & SIMPLE
A playful yet well-appointed retreat was the goal behind this great room’s
design. Though the Douglas fir frame is structural, the owners didn’t feel
the need to showcase the frame in its entirety, and the open plan helped
to dictate where to expose the columns and timbers. The marble-topped
island is command central in the kitchen space, while the double-sided
fieldstone fireplace holds court in the living area. The juxtaposition of
smooth and rugged stone in a similar color palette plays well off each
other, while the lighting adds a contemporary touch.
