Lakeside Traditional
This 2019 award winning home is recognized as a breath-taking, but family focused accomplishment. The complimentary and impeccable interiors were a collaborative effort where rooms were designed around chandeliers and artwork. Multiple generations gather frequently to enjoy the external, internal and hidden spaces.

I had the pleasure of working with Michael McFadden while he was at Stuart Silk Architects for four years. He was our primary architect during the design and construction of our custom home on Lake Sammamish. We wanted a traditional shingle style home reminiscent of the Hamptons but wanted the interiors to be more open and modern. Michael was able to achieve our vision. He has an excellent eye for proportion and scale, pays attention to every minute detail, and is thoughtful about every aspect of the design process.
Building a house is stressful, but Michael was always supportive and helpful. At one point, when I was on the verge of a meltdown, Michael was able to reassure me that everything was going to be OK and that he was there for us anytime. You know that he's in your corner and wants for you to be happy. During the two year house construction, he was at every site meeting and made sure that every detail of the build was up to his high standard.
We now have our amazing dream home that is timeless, elegant, beautiful, and extremely functional. Everything turned out better than we anticipated and I honestly cannot think of a single thing I would change. We are so happy to have had the opportunity to work with Michael and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented architect.
