Platinum House Entry
Contemporary Entrance, Seattle
This image captures the main entry to the home. All of the wood used for the bench on the left came from one large tree that was on-site. It was milled on-site and kiln-dried locally. A lot of this wood was also used on the inside as finish trim... so the tree never really left the site! Also in this image are LED lights and an off-the-shelf ground-face masonry block that is used in a manner that makes the pedestrian material seem rather elegant. The pavers to the left of the walkway leading up to the front door are reclaimed.
