Mt Baker Courtyard by Tyler Engle Architects P.S.

Mt Baker Courtyard – Protected and Contextual

Designed by Tyler Engle Architects P.S., the former seeping hillside with poor drainage and awkward pathways was transformed into a cohesive urban oasis – Mt Baker Courtyard.

Mt-Baker-Courtyard-1

New walkways circumscribe the primary outdoor living space while providing direct access from the garage and alley to the mudroom and kitchen.

Mt-Baker-Courtyard-2

Privacy was achieved by an architectural concrete wall that fortifies the separation from the alley and hides a new parking space while a heavy timber trellis buffers the garage.

These modern elements are detailed to respect the traditional context.
