Mount Baker Residence by Pb Elemental Architecture is perched on a slope with views of Rainier Valley to downtown Seattle. The modern dwelling is flooded with natural lighting and contains four bedrooms, two and a half baths, and 2470 sf of living space. Here are some of its green features:

Radiant heat concrete floors throughout, FSC certified wood use, low-VOC paints and stains, drought tolerant plants, dual-flush toilets, CFL lighting, and construction on a difficult, infill location.  In addition, the design of the home creates a chimney effect that allows warm air to rise through the central staircase in the summer.
