Pacific Northwest Homes
Houses shaped by the land, the firs, the light, and the water
Studio PHH designs modern homes across the Pacific Northwest, with a focus on intertwining architecture, interiors and landscape into a dialogue that responds to the context and clients
Driven by the site
A Pacific Northwest house begins with its land. Studio PHH studies orientation, topography, views, and the way weather and light move across a site, then shapes the plan, the structure, and the glazing to suit, so the house is comfortable through the long grey seasons and open to light and view when they arrive.
Durable, natural materials, Corten, oak, stone, and quartzite, are chosen to weather well and to belong to the setting, and the interiors and custom furniture are drawn alongside the architecture.
A house sited between the forest and the sound
At home in remote landscapes
Much of Studio PHH's Pacific Northwest work lives in beautiful landscapes, from Camano Island to the San Juans and into the Mountains in Cle Elum. The studio plans around access, logistics, and the local cost of construction, and stays closely involved from the first sketch through move-in.
Pierre-Henri Hoppenot is licensed in Washington, and Studio PHH leads these projects directly, working intimately with clients and contractors.
