Description: "In 3 x 3, the work of Seattle-based architecture firm Suyama Peterson Deguchi is broken down into a case study of three recently constructed residences. Sharing inherent architectonic characteristics and employing similar design philosophies, these homes are tested on three different kinds of sites and topographies: a remote island getaway, perched high atop a rocky bluff, affording "big" views of the archipelago below; a long and narrow site in a historic beach community on Puget Sound; and a site situated on a golf-course fairway, surrounded by homes built in more traditional styles." "With complete sets of drawings, photographs, and text, 3 x 3 documents the firm's pursuit of timeless and elegant design, which established their reputation as one of the leading architecture firms in the Pacific Northwest."--BOOK JACKET.
