Brilliant Bick Tiny House

/in /by

Dive into the brilliance of the Bick Tiny House by 2atara! 🌿 This recently completed project is a testament to versatile design, where a former music studio has been artfully transformed into a compact haven. Boasting a kitchenette, snug bedroom, loft space, and a flexible artist workspace—all cleverly optimized with Scandinavian modern elegance and clear maple accents—the Bick Tiny House is a visual delight. A custom-designed maple bed adds an intriguing spatial element, offering a direct view out the window, while floor-to-ceiling windows and strategically placed cubes play with scale to enhance the sense of space. The bathroom, with its unique bamboo cabinet detail within a large mirror, cleverly augments the perception of space. Sustainability takes center stage with a mini-split heat pump, making this Winter 2023 remodel a shining example of thoughtful design choices that have magically transformed a once-underutilized space into a resourceful retreat.

Creating Connection with Style: 2atara’s Regency Office Transformation

/in /by

2atara’s goal for the Regency Office TI on Bainbridge Island was to create a feeling of connection and a seamless indoor/outdoor experience, vital for a client whose primary office is in Hawaii. Within a LEED certified building with radiant concrete floors, innovative interior-design blends the industrial metal structure with moved walls and captivating sightlines.

An accent wall designed by Abnormals Anonymous, a local wallpaper artist, infuses artistic flair. Metal countertops reflect the building’s ambiance, creating cohesion. The clever kitchen counter design running through the floor to ceiling windows connects indoor and outdoor elements, while antique surfboards nod to Hawaii’s influence.

Relaxation space with rock-like pillows and visual ceiling continuity from outside the office into the conference room add character & additional connection. Thoughtful blinds strike a balance between outdoor views and blocking harsh sunlight.

Throughout this project, the accommodating and friendly clients contributed to a collaborative masterpiece that seamlessly blends style and functionality.

2atara Unveils Cutting-Edge Office Transformation: Repurposed Warehouse Transformed into a Sustainable and Stylish Workspace

/in /by

Presenting our innovative newest office transformation, where we creatively repurposed an old warehouse to build our own contemporary space. The interior was organized around long view sheds, emphasizing openness and cohesion. A neutral color palette makes the area appear larger and fresher. The project consolidated storage spaces, added a workshop, and brings improved parking for clients. Notably, the office benefits from a large insulated garage door, as well as the incorporation of recycled glass elements, further enhancing sun exposure, energy efficiency, and sustainable design practices. Platforms for offices and a loft space create an illusion of spaciousness. This project is a demonstration of 2atara’s creativity and commitment to building functional and inspiring spaces.
