They hired architect, Seth Grizzle, to remodel the 440 sq ft space into something that was able to host events, do yoga in, or use as a guesthouse. The result was a bright and modern space with large windows to offer beautiful views of the surrounding Puget Sound.
The garage's walls were repurposed and used as flooring in the space. There's also a bed hidden under the floor for guests or anyone in need of a nap. Outside, there's an outdoor shower for the multi-tasker who wants to tan and get clean simultaneously. ;)
For entertaining, there's a pretty neat, custom-made Corian bookshelf that transformed into a bar!
Grizzle and his architecture firm, Greypants, nicknamed the project "Garage". It took in a number of awards including the 2013 AIA Seattle Honor Award, 2014 Residential Architecture Design Award, and the 2014 Copper in Architecture Award
Overall, a really nice space!
