We design homes that grow from the land — where craft, restraint, and the Washington landscape converge.
Bellevue, Washington
A contemporary residence masterfully balancing dark brick and limestone, dramatic cantilevered rooflines, and floor-to-ceiling glazing — a home that commands presence while remaining deeply connected to its landscape.
Medina, Washington
A light-toned contemporary set on a generous Medina lot — fluted limestone panels, warm bronze overhangs, and a seamlessly choreographed outdoor living sequence from fire pit court to covered terrace and outdoor kitchen.
Every interior is an extension of the architecture — materials chosen for touch as much as sight, light calibrated for morning and evening, rooms that feel inevitable from the moment you enter.
Founded in 2016, Think Different Builders works across Washington on a select number of residential projects each year. Our practice is built on material integrity, climatic thinking, and the long relationship between craft and landscape.
We take on a maximum of six projects annually to ensure full creative and technical investment in every home we design.
From first site visit to final walkthrough — we stay with every project through its full arc, ensuring the design intent survives construction and the home is built exactly as conceived.
Extended site study across seasons. We understand sun, drainage, views, and your life before committing a single line to paper.
Concept sketches, physical models, three directions — refined toward a single vision that belongs to the site and no other.
Full architectural drawings, material specifications, structural coordination. Permit-ready documentation built for longevity.
Regular site presence throughout the build. The design does not end at permit approval — it ends when you move in.
