The Vision
When the clients approached us about building their new home, they shared an inspiring backstory. They had been living in a home just across the street—a space they had enjoyed for years—but when this property became available, they saw a unique opportunity. They envisioned transforming the lot into their dream home, tailored perfectly to their lifestyle and love for entertaining. Recognizing the property as a prime candidate for a teardown, they purchased it through Armada Homes, which expedited the process of starting their new construction project. With permits submitted and approved swiftly, construction began without delay.
From the beginning, the clients envisioned creating a home that reflected their vibrant lifestyle while incorporating the latest in modern home design. Knowing the property was ideal for a teardown, they worked with us to expedite the process. With permits approved and construction underway quickly, the project progressed smoothly, demonstrating the efficiency and expertise that Armada Design & Build is known for in King County.

Main Floor Bathroom

For the sink area, we chose an Elkay Quartz Classic undermount sink, known for its durability and scratch-resistant properties. Paired with a Delta Trinsic widespread bathroom faucet, the combination brings a sleek, modern look with reliable performance. The faucet’s clean lines and high-quality craftsmanship perfectly align with the bathroom’s sophisticated aesthetic.
In the shower area, we aimed to create a spa-like experience. The Delta Trinsic 17 Series valve trim with integrated volume control and a three-function diverter provides intuitive control, allowing guests to customize their shower experience. The shower features a Delta contemporary shower head with H2Okinetic technology for a luxurious yet water-efficient flow, complemented by the Delta Compel hand shower set, which offers flexibility and comfort with its slide bar and hose design.
For the flooring and surfaces, we selected Cambria Ella Matte Quartz for the countertops, which delivers a sleek, understated elegance with a durable finish. Architectural Surfaces Marvel Calacatta Extra tiles were used for their striking veining and luxurious appearance, providing a stunning visual anchor to the room. These materials were carefully chosen not only for their beauty but also for their lasting quality.
Lighting played a crucial role in the overall design, and we incorporated the Maxim Contessa 20″ wide bath light to add a touch of sophistication while providing ample illumination. The placement of lighting fixtures was strategically planned to enhance the space’s ambiance and highlight its design features.
By focusing on thoughtful material choices and precision installation, we transformed this bathroom into a serene and functional retreat that reflects a commitment to style, comfort, and quality.
Rec Room Bar
The clients wanted a Rec Room Bar that would serve as a central hub for entertaining guests, combining functionality with a touch of elegance. To achieve this, we carefully selected materials and fixtures that align with their vision of a stylish yet practical space.
We installed the Blanco Precis Undermount SILGRANIT Kitchen Bar Sink, known for its durability and easy maintenance. This sink is perfect for a busy entertainment area, resisting stains and scratches while providing ample space for prep and clean-up. Paired with the Delta Trinsic Single Handle Bar Faucet, which features a swivel spout for maximum flexibility, the sink setup offers both convenience and style. The sleek design of the faucet complements the modern aesthetic of the room, making it a seamless addition to the bar.
To enhance the ambiance, we added Fletcher 8″ Tall Bathroom Sconces with Clear Seedy Glass. These lights create a warm, inviting glow, perfect for entertaining in the evening. For the countertops, we chose Crystol Pure Blanco and Cambria Ella Matte Quartz. These materials were selected for their durability and sophisticated look, providing a clean and polished surface that’s easy to maintain, making the bar area both beautiful and practical for entertaining.

Our Process
This new construction project began with a shared vision between the clients and our team, focusing on creating a home that balanced modern elegance with practical functionality. From the foundation to the finishing touches, every detail was thoughtfully planned and expertly executed to bring their dream home to life.
Construction Details
The project started with comprehensive site preparation and the installation of a robust foundation, designed to support the home’s spacious layout and ensure longevity. The framing process was meticulously executed to create open, airy spaces while maintaining structural integrity. High ceilings and expansive windows were integrated into the design, allowing natural light to flood the interiors and accentuate the modern aesthetic.
Energy efficiency was a key consideration throughout construction. Advanced insulation techniques were employed to enhance thermal performance, while energy-efficient windows and doors were installed to reduce utility costs and maintain a comfortable environment year-round. The HVAC system was carefully designed to ensure consistent airflow and optimal climate control.
High-quality materials were used throughout the home, ensuring both durability and visual appeal. The flooring, selected for its natural tones and resilience, ties the spaces together seamlessly. Custom millwork, including baseboards and trim, was crafted with precision to add subtle sophistication to the overall design. Interior walls were finished with a smooth application of paint in a palette that balances warmth and modernity, creating a cohesive atmosphere throughout.
Thoughtful Design Integration
The layout was designed to enhance flow and connectivity between spaces, making it ideal for both daily living and entertaining. Open sightlines were prioritized, with architectural elements like wide doorways and unobtrusive transitions creating a sense of openness without compromising privacy. Storage solutions were strategically incorporated into the design, ensuring that every space serves both a functional and aesthetic purpose.
Modern lighting design played a significant role in the home’s overall ambiance. A combination of recessed lighting, statement fixtures, and natural light sources was used to highlight key features and create an inviting atmosphere. Smart home technology was integrated discreetly, allowing for convenient control of lighting, climate, and security systems without detracting from the clean design.
Exterior and Final Touches
The exterior of the home was crafted to reflect the modern aesthetic of the interior, with a sleek façade featuring clean lines and durable siding. The outdoor spaces were designed to complement the interior flow, offering functional and stylish areas for relaxation and entertainment. Landscaping was carefully planned to enhance the curb appeal and create a welcoming environment.
The final result is a home that embodies the clients’ vision and exceeds their expectations. From its structural foundation to its cohesive design, this new construction project demonstrates the value of collaboration, thoughtful planning, and expert craftsmanship. It’s a space that not only meets the practical needs of daily life but also provides a stunning backdrop for creating lasting memories.
