Hat Island Residence by Bjarko Serra Architects

This beautiful vacation retreat of the Hat Island beachfront residence located near Seattle, Washington is designed by Bjarko | Serra Architects consists of two separate buildings for 2 families containing 5 bedrooms on a compact site – one for living and eating, and the other for sleeping. This beachfront hat island residence is on a narrow waterfront site situated in a relatively dense beach front development of single family homes. The homeowners’ desire was to have a modern vacation house that maximizes the unique beach site and provides a comfortable central gathering space to experience the waterfront and accommodate passive activities. The property and house are co-owned by 2 families, so the design had to provide sufficient space for large groups sharing the facilities.
