Pulp loves to create beautiful homes, but we also want to be sure that each home functions perfectly for our clients. When we took on a 6,000-square-foot project in the Laurelhurst neighborhood of Seattle, it was an historic home from 1913, so it had some quirks. While there were stunning architectural features like stained glass windows and original doors, there were also odd nooks and crannies in the layout. Pulp came to the rescue with interiors full of personality and flair.

The dining room has a lovely balance of historic and modern design. The color palette is calm, with a dreamy quality that’s enhanced by the custom-colored Porter Teleo wallcovering on the ceiling. It’s the perfect backdrop for the breathtaking Oly light fixture.

Pulp used the art and architecture to inspire the furnishings in the living room. An embroidered fabric on the sofas is creatively placed to add visual interest, with the seats covered in a performance velvet. Swivel chairs can turn to take in the view of the lake or can move to the perfect position for conversation.

The layout of this older home was a challenge and Pulp designed different ways to give every inch of the home a strong personality. We turned a breakfast room into a reading nook with a game table, including a great banquette with custom fringe. Even the stairs got their moment of drama with a stunning runner and a rope-like light installation.

Years after completing the original interiors, our clients invited Pulp back to thoughtfully refresh several rooms. The update allowed us to rework how the home functions—from entertaining to hosting guests—while layering in new materials, lighting, and furnishings that elevate the original design.

Originally designed as the home’s dining room, this space was reimagined as a cozy den— allowing the adjacent waterfront room to expand into a larger dining area for effortless entertaining. By relocating the dining function, our clients gained the ability to host bigger dinner parties with a view, while this room now offers a relaxed retreat for everyday living.
