Set in a sunny meadow and framed by tall evergreens, this Washington State home designed by Prentiss + Balance + Wickline Architects feels like a peaceful escape into nature. The architects recently shared a look inside the completed project, and it’s every bit as serene as its surroundings.

Every architect knows there is no project without constraints. Whether it’s a challenging site, limited budget, or complex program requirements — obstacles are the reality of construction projects. However, with experience, we learn that constraints rarely result in compromised quality. Rather, they often inspire new approaches and innovative solutions. As designers, we understand that constraints can fuel our creativity. So, let’s consider: How could the constraints of new tariffs inspire the future of American architecture? What if these tariffs don’t just increase construction costs but serve as the catalyst for a more sustainable built environment?
