Burke Residence - Bellevue
The simplest description of this home is a 'Box with a Tweak', or rather, 'Several Boxes with a Tweak'. The form is essentially several individual rectangular elements juxtaposed to each other. Great care was taken to continue that theme throughout the roof structure to maintain the that geometry. Located in West Bellevue, this house sits atop a hill and takes full advantage of its view towards a rapidly expanding Bellevue skyline. Signature elements of this home include the two-story great room highlighted by exposed timber trusses and clearstory windows, as well as the roof top deck.
