Modern Barrel Roof

As often is the case with Seattle homes and lots, the question du jour was whether to tear down or remodel this home. The result is a combination of the two approaches. Using some of the existing foundation walls and a lot of collaboration, Axiom and the homeowner created a unique, modern home using a metal barrel roof design, cement board siding, cedar and glass, and tons of natural light and view. Double height spaces and an open loft railing give the upstairs and main floor connection and openness, while an apartment suite gives it flexibility.
