hHouse is a sweet 1920’s era home built in Seattle’s leafy Montlake neighborhood. Best Practice was commissioned to rehab the interior with a strategically integrated modern kitchen and to turn the attic space into a primary suite while addressing earlier interior finish mishaps. Through the process, a beautiful and bright interior emerged along with new, meticulously integrated, modern amenities that give this vintage home a new life.

Moving upstairs to the converted attic space, the design team crafted a primary bedroom with an adjacent walk-in closet and a new bathroom out of the previous long room with sloped ceilings. In the bedroom itself, the sloped ceiling condition is cleverly used as part of a built-in headboard for the bed. With custom shelving on each side and reading light sconces, what was once an area of lower headroom becomes less of an issue.

New skylights allow more natural light into the space and provide a view of green tree-tops while you are lying in bed.
