Modern design and time-honored techniques meld seamlessly in the Makai House, a 3000-square-foot custom home designed to strategically fit on an existing footprint, located a stone’s throw from the Fauntleroy ferry dock in West Seattle. A courtyard in the rear of the house, a covered patio, and the front beach are all physically and visually connected, creating dynamic indoor-outdoor living, constantly changing with the seasons and the times of the day.
