Cubix | Seattle, Washington

Guerdon’s first legitimate micro-suite project, the Cubix Apartments hold true to their slogan: Everything you need, nothing you don’t.

The 93 micro-apartments, made up of just 36 modules, offer quality over quantity. Hi-tech materials and modular construction methods contribute to minimized sound transmission. The efficient units with modern colors and thoughtful finishes are between 225 and 300 square feet. To counterbalance the small space, each unit features a large window letting in an abundance of natural light.

The project is BuiltGreen 4-Star certified; with solar on the roof. A large rooftop urban garden provides space for socializing and views of the city skyline, while ample onsite storage and a space for bike repair cater perfectly to the transit oriented tenant. Livability, amenities and proximity to transit, work and restaurants are the features tenants are looking for in micro-suite living.

In addition to Guerdon manufacturing the units and Parkstone’s construction division performing the general contracting, the project team also included Jackson|Main Architecture, DCI Engineers, structural; Decker Consulting Engineers, civil; InSite Group, mechanical, electrical and plumbing designer; KLLA Landscape Architects; and Evergreen Certified, Built Green consultant.
