Evert Sodergren's property was built to serve as his home and studio workshop. According to a report by seattle.curbed.com, "The Södergren Studio House was a collaboration between two people whose work has shaped the aesthetic trend known as Pacific Northwest Regionalism."
Studio furniture maker Evert Sodergren built his home with the aid of his friend architect Ralph Anderson. The home was a tiny beach cabin in the past. In 1972, the duo renovated the home to make the living space bigger. Now, the house is almost 3,700 square-feet.
The house features a unique masterpiece which is the hand-wrought spiral staircase. The staircase leads to the studio upstairs and according to a report by seattle.curbed.com, "It features floating oaken treads." The outside features of the house includes multiple façade decks. The pickets are fronting the water area and as stated in a report by seattle.curbed.com, "The place has a 55-foot dock as well."
Other unique designs of the house are the arch motif that are present all throughout the house. As stated in a report by seattle.curbed.com, "The house contains Sodergren's original cabinetry and hand-crafted walnut parquet floors works. The house is a three-level home. It has a 615 square-foot shop. It also contains a three-car garage. Other amenities includes an elevator that services the second and third floors.
The veranda in the second floor offers the dwellers amazing scenic views of the Mountain Lake. The house is handcrafted with elegance and style. Paintings are used to decorate the walls along with the handcrafted cabinets. The interior features of the house contains a wetbar, a walk-in closet, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and French doors. The flooring is made of carpet, hardwood, and concrete.
The house has been the long time venue for the Pacific Northwest's most talented artists.
