Rozanski Architects

We had our house, and an adjacent very small house (currently my art studio) designed by Jim in 2008. We love both. The studio room layout was mostly per my needs, but the design details: windows, lofts, angel wing angled front, etc came from Jim. We lived in it while the «big» house was built, and now we love that also: so light, comfortable, and just what we wanted!

What, no category for architects, dear Unilocal???
Donja know that every good home starts first on the drawing board?
That being said, let me tell you about Jim Rozanski, his architectural firm, and *our* Port Townsend home. (Jim calls it Villa Clark, but we call it Home… as in «There’s no Place Like…»)
For us, it started as a good idea. We wanted a place away from the city. Near family, but not *that* near family, if you get my drift. We thought Port Townsend would be perfect… Puget Sound, Olympic mountains, Ft Worden, with its universities and programs. Perfect…
So, I started combing the net for houses. Dream CIty (Port Townsend’s nickname) has lots of houses. Every size, shape, color and description. The task was daunting…
But then… by the flicking light of my laptop late one evening, The House appeared. Rozanski Architects had designed it. It was two years old. And, it was For Sale.
I flew up the following weekend. Hired a real estate professional. (Hint, hint…)
Toured the place. Toured the town. In under a month, the place was ours.
It still is. We love it.
Now then, let me tell you what makes a Rozanski house special.
*Its different. Not cookie cutter like every other house on the block.
*Its green. Uses ecologically appropriate material. Minimal carbon footprint.
*Its cleverly designed to be home to Real People. (Like us. We are really Real.
* It has Staying Power. That is, it looks good today, and will look good tomorrow.
I could continue. But I won’t. You can see for yourself on Rozanski’s website. Contact the firm to see what’s going on now.
Go ahead and drool if you like. We understand and so do our dogs. Drooling is okay… and so is dreaming.
If its different you want. .
If its green you want…
If its Real you want…
Rozanski Architects just might be your kind of firm.
