Farewell New Development

The Farwell New Construction project exemplifies the pinnacle of modern architecture, seamlessly blending innovative design with the challenges of its unique location. Designed by the esteemed architect Gustavo Penengo of PRDG Architecture & Design, this custom home is a masterpiece of contemporary style and sustainable living. Situated on a steep hillside in Seattle, Washington, the project was once deemed “unbuildable,” yet through meticulous planning and execution, Better Builders transformed this perception, creating a stunning residence that defies conventional boundaries. The home’s construction was accomplished using modular techniques, allowing for efficiency without compromising on artistry. Each section was meticulously built off-site and then assembled on the challenging terrain, a process that facilitated precision and attention to detail. The project's foundation is particularly noteworthy, featuring H-piles driven 40 feet deep into the hillside to ensure stability and security. This engineering feat was essential in supporting the dramatic cantilevers that characterize the home’s striking silhouette. Every aspect of the design reflects a commitment to both aesthetic appeal and functionality. The use of high-quality materials, from the sleek exterior finishes to the energy-efficient windows, underscores the project's focus on sustainability. The layout of the home maximizes the breathtaking views of the Sound, allowing natural light to flood the interiors, creating an inviting atmosphere that connects the inhabitants with the surrounding landscape. The final outcome of the Farwell New Construction is a breathtaking modern home that not only meets the demands of its challenging site but also redefines the possibilities of modular design. It stands as a testament to creative innovation and expert craftsmanship, offering a unique living experience that harmonizes with its environment while showcasing the best in contemporary architectural design. This project is a remarkable example of how thoughtful design and engineering can transform even the most challenging sites into extraordinary homes.
