Lindal Cedar Homes is beloved by architects and lovers of architecture alike – we’re big-time fans of the Alpha A-frame! It turns out that so many of us appreciate the brand’s thoughtful kit designs and easy installation that they’ve introduced a Quick Ship program – a fast and efficient way to turn your modern dream home into a reality. The Quick Ship program offers a selection of Lindal’s best-selling homes that have been pre-drafted, allowing for a fast turnaround time and delivery to your build site, whether it be in the mountains, at the beach, or somewhere in between.

While it might sound a bit like a 1950s cookie cutter house at first, rest assured that Quick Ship includes a menu of optional modifications that can make your new home’s style feel perfectly personalized, all in an efficient and cost-effective way. Sound too good to be true? It gets even better because Lindal’s Quick Ship homes are sold at a discount.

With so many architectural options to choose from, we’re sharing three of their most popular designs. First up is Ash, seen above, a modern home featuring a classic profile with design details you might find in a farmhouse style, like the way its structures are connected and a sloped metal roof. Walls of glass on the frontside, a single-story layout, and a flat-roofed entry divide the public and private areas of the home. Choose from four layout options within the Ash family and create your perfect space, be it a getaway or primary home.

With three bedrooms and two baths, the one-floor BAYSIDE 1621 design offers its owner open living in the biggest sense of the term. The dramatic front of the structure is made of glass and shaped like a ship’s bow, while the great room, dining room, and kitchen share the interior space and stunning views that come with it. Though modest in size, this home feels larger thanks to high ceilings and a light-filled interior. There’s even a dedicated private primary bedroom suite as the icing on the cake. Expanded versions of the original Bayside design are also available if you’re looking for something with a larger footprint.

What’s the epitome of mid-century living? A ranch-style home of course, just like Sargasso. Comfortable and welcoming upon first sight, the one-level floor plan features a large wall of windows that allow nature to come right in. Sargasso’s large gathering area is perfectly designed for the host or hostess, with plenty of space for entertaining until the sun comes up. If you happen to own a sloped lot, you can opt to add a lower level, increasing your square footage exponentially.

  • Mercer Modern

    Mercer Modern is a midcentury home located on a hillside on a 15,539 SF lot in Mercer Island, WA overlooking Lake Washington. The original house had great bones but was disconnected from the outdoors. Wittman Estes wanted to give the family a way to live outside and connect with their Southern California roots. Originally built in 1969, the post and beam structure had fallen into disrepair, and had a layout that was out of sync with the casual modern lifestyle for a young family with two children. The owner is Melanie Owen, a fashion designer with a keen interest in interior design and outdoor living. Originally from Southern California, her design sensibilities were rooted in SoCal surfer culture and the casual and open vibes of beach living. Both Melanie and her husband, Matt, work in fashion and clothing and have deep interests in texture, materiality, and a spaces with a comfortable lived-in feeling. Ms. Owen’s roots in Southern California brought a love for bright, light tones, and simple open spaces. Together with the architect, this vibe was mixed with Pacific Northwest traditions of wood tones and highly crafted built-in furniture. The goal was to create spaces that had both the qualities of Southern California modernism with a warmer, high quality carpentry that the Puget Sound region is known for. The outdoor deck has a ipe decking and built in seating. Cedar slat walls screen the neighboring houses while allowing the sunlight to filter through the screens. The kitchen was reconfigured to orient to the outdoors encourage an easy connection between the living room, dining room, and outdoor space. A concrete and glass stair connect the upper terrace to the garden and landscape. “We sought to connect the spaces in so the family could be relaxed and cruise barefoot going indoors and out”, says Wittman. The breezy and lightweight feeling of the material palette encourages the family to step outside and connect with the sunlight and views over Lake Washington and towards the downtown Seattle skyline.
