The Pacific Northwest is full of a variety of design and architecture styles: Modern, Northwest Contemporary, Cape Cod-style, Craftsman, and the list goes on! One element of architecture that we rarely see, but is prominently rooted in the origin of modern design, is Japanese-centric architecture. Our latest offering on Bainbridge Island truly embodies the best of both worlds.
Natural Settings
In both Northwest and Japanese architecture, it is common to find settings that blend both the indoors and outdoors. This serene home provides plenty of privacy, space, and tranquil courtyards that provide peace and solitude.
Structural Elements
Wood, beam design, earth-like materials – blend these elements together and you could have either Northwest or Japanese design, or both! Our team’s latest listing includes a detailed beam design that is aesthetically pleasing, shoji screens (a common Japanese theme), a Japanese-inspired bath with shower, soaking tub, and sauna, and tokonoma alcove and tatami mats that add to the serene feeling of this property.
Tranquility
Japanese design and architecture pride themselves on creating a relationship with nature and having the home serve as a peaceful escape. With everlasting views of our gorgeous region, spaces that connect to nature, and an ideal amount of privacy, this home is truly an oasis.
