Othello Modern New Construction
The Othello House project was completed in 2015 with design by PRDG architecture + design and build by Better Builders. While the homeowners opted not to process full certification, the qualifications of a five-star Built Green ™ project were met with this build. This uber modern West Seattle home was created with premium style and functionality in mind. Creating this oasis as a new construction project helped us create the dream home for these owners.
Some of the key requirements of the five-star But Green project are: preserving existing native vegetation, retain 30% of the trees on site, achieve 30% improvement over Washington State Energy code, achieve a minimum recycling rate of 70% of waste by weight, and use a minimum of 10 materials with recycled content.
You can see from these photos; the Othello house landscaping is full of gorgeous greenery and foliage. The home has windows on all sides to capture as much natural light as cloudy Seattle will allow. Meeting standards to make your home green isn’t always easy, but, we believe it’s worth it in the end.
