Rom Architecture & Karen Braitmayer | Mid-Century Modern | Seattle, WA

Residential Building

Carol Sundstrom, AIA, of Röm Architecture Studio and Karen Braitmayer, FAIA, worked together to transform Karen’s own home for her family while developing solutions to design challenges that they could also use on future residential projects.

This project was awarded the 2011 AIA/HUD Secretary’s Alan J. Rothman Award in Housing Accessibility which recognizes the “importance of good housing as a necessity of life, a sanctuary for the human spirit, and a valuable national resource.”

Who is Chibi Moku? We are the darndest hard workin’ little cinematography duo in the world. One a cinematographer...the other a photographer. When people ask us if we like what we do, we tell them that we can’t even imagine a better job! We travel all over the world (and when in the US, out of our RV) capturing content for architects, interior designers, & out-of-the-box thinkin' property owners. We edit & live off the grid as sustainable as possible. Our love for our little company is only exceeded by our love for each other…so everything we do is done with passion! We believe architecture & design is rooted in child-like creativity. Why are so many architectural stories such snoozers or seem to scream "Look at us...we're so smart"? Lighten up ya'll...this is art. Smile, be wild, & speak from the heart! We don't throw around words like "award winning" or "luxury" or "exclusive". We are none of that. Just 2 crazy kids with cameras tellin' down-to-earth stories of architecture & design. Are we changin' the world?...probably not. But we tell the stories of those who are.

About Project

Eichler-style meets accessibility in this 1950’s era home on top of Magnolia hill in Seattle. Everyone who visits this mid-century home comments about how it is “modern… but a kind of modern you can actually LIVE in.” Cheery and comfortable, this right-sized home with an expansive view is designed to be user-friendly for wheelchairs and sneakers alike. Carol Sundstrom, AIA, of Röm Architecture Studio and Karen Braitmayer, FAIA, worked together to transform Karen’s own home for her family while developing solutions to design challenges that they could also use on future residential projects.
