JOYA
At the intersection of Seattle’s Central District, Mount Baker, and Beacon Hill neighborhoods, Joya offers a unique blend of 62 townhome and Live/Work units designed with generous communal outdoor space and landscaped plazas. Serving as a transition from the commercial spine of Rainier Avenue and the surrounding residential neighborhood, Joya provides two- and three-bedroom homes with diverse floor plans designed to be flexible and welcoming.
Large street-facing front stoops and common open spaces encourage fresh air and outdoor gatherings in lieu of a series of individual private areas. Through-site vistas, pedestrian pathways, inviting plazas, outdoor game spaces, integrating several exceptional trees, and an infusion of colorful local art further emphasize these values. By providing “alley” style parking rather than individual garages, Joya further promotes the importance of neighborly interactions. Live/Work units are positioned on the site to enhance an existing pedestrian experience. Textural and contrasting materials combine with a mix of townhome facades and roof lines, presenting an eclectic block of homes that harmoniously weave together the influences of Northwest Modernism with the cultures and heritage of the existing community.
