Project Profiles

Quantum Consulting Engineers provided structural engineering for 2,500 SF residence and a 1,370 SF carport with an ADU above, located on Bainbridge Island.

This residence received a LEED Platinum rating.

Architect: Coates Design

Located in Vancouver Island’s Cadboro Bay neighborhood, the Spindrift Residence’s two-and-a-half acre site has spectacular waterfront views of Haro Strait and San Juan Island. Designed for a family of four, the floor plan spreads out, primarily on one level, giving each room exposure to the views. The house tucks into the slope of the site reducing the overall mass from the street front. The angle of the custom roof trusses at the pool and bedrooms is designed to optimize southern exposure for roof-mounted solar hot water tubes which heat the swimming pool and domestic hot water. Additional environmental strategies include passive natural ventilation, abundant day-lighting, geothermal and radiant heating, combined with triple glazed windows throughout the home.

Quantum Consulting Engineers performed structural design services for a new 2-story cabin comprising 3,700 square feet plus a separate garage/loft structure. The residence features exposed Douglas Fir post-and-beam framing in the great room, overlooking Priest Lake. A wood bridge composed of tongue-in-groove decking connects the two upper level bedroom wings and provides an overlook into the main living space and views to the lake.
