Now the proud owners of a few acres of dirt in the Methow Valley, we began to look for an architecture firm to design our cabin. To narrow the search, we looked at a ton of websites and found a list of the Top Mountain Architects put out by Mountain Living Magazine that proved very helpful.
We were looking for an architect that was local and designed homes that were modern, with a rustic natural feel. Most importantly, we were looking for someone we could work with to develop the design because we wanted to be involved in the process.
After a detailed search, we narrowed the list to three architects that we wanted to meet in person. All three were excellent at their trade and had designed beautiful homes. Two of the firms had been designing great homes in the Methow for the last 20 years, and the third firm was building some of Seattle's most beautiful modern homes.
In the end, we decided to go with Elemental Design LLC. Our decision was primarily based on the in-person meetings with our architect. We had the opportunity to see a few homes he had designed that were still under construction and felt very confident that we would enjoy working with Elemental and get the home we wanted.
