REDMOND, WA, (Nov. 2022) – A Lake of the Woods Home has won an award for the Green Detached Home, Built For Sale category in the 2022 Best in American Living™ Awards (BALA) by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB).

Located in Woodinville, WA, this 5,614sqft home was fully designed and built by Lochwood Lozier Custom Homes in collaboration with 425 Magazine’s yearly Idea House program. Lochwood Lozier’s in-house Architectural Designers, Matt Mamiya and Heidi Schmitten, worked collaboratively with Interior Designer, Sarah Smith, to complete the homes design.

The 2021 Northwest Idea House is a mix of Scandinavian modern aesthetics, inspired by its architecture and natural surroundings. By overlapping nature and living, the home has a very distinct relationship with its environment. Its Pacific Northwest authenticity is confirmed with in home sightings of the eagles, Hooded Merganser ducks, deer, river otter, and an active beaver lodge in the backyard. The home exudes a sense of calm as it invites you in with its light and airy foyer and direct views of the natural habitat beyond the glass doors to the exterior. Each space was built with intention, whether that’s to relax, heal, create, or gather.
