We love Shed Building Design's transformation of a detached garage in Seattle into a functional, loftlike apartment. The 320-square-foot space features a faceted ceiling, which is designed to guide warm air to the triangular vent window for passive ventilation. Partners Prentis Hale and Thomas Schaer devised innovative space-saving strategies throughout: a support beam functions as a kitchen pot rack, and a bookshelf is tucked in the interior eaves.
