King County Housing Authority Somerset Gardens

Bellevue, WA

INNOVA Architects was hired in 2017 to plan the extensive renovations and redevelopment of 198 apartments that are part of two neighboring courtyard style complexes for Somerset Gardens Apartments in Bellevue, Washington. The majority of project improvements are interior to the units, with some smaller units being combined to create larger family units. Since the project had to meet the ESDS requirements, we planned early for meeting these requirements as part of the overall project goals. The project included energy conservation upgrades, ventilation improvements, and all new interior finishes, as well as site improvements.
