“ OFF ISLAND” RESIDENCES
Pacific Northwest Residence: For their latest“ mainland” residential project, Senior Designer Anne Tanaka and Marion Philpotts- Miller worked closely with the homeowners to create the perfect summer house. Given their large multi-generational family, the homeowners desired a place ideal for different ages and generations where they could come together and make long-term memories. Located in a quaint vacation destination in the Pacific Northwest, the homeowners were immediately drawn to the property for the breathtaking lake views. As such, one of the design team’ s goals was for every space to have a view of the lake. The aim was to create lots of indoor and outdoor opportunities to enjoy lake life, including soaking in the hot tub, roasting s’ mores around the fire pit, watching the sunset over the lake and more. Highlights of the
residence include the cozy, nautical themed bedroom with four bed bunks and trundle bed; the hair salon bathroom where younger generations can get ready in a space that feels like an old-school hair salon complete with a shampoo bowl and hairstyling chair. www. philpotts. net
