This beautiful home was designed by Arthur Lamont Loveless, an architect known for his tudor revival-era structural designs around the Seattle area. Arthur Loveless was raised in New York, began studying architecture at Columbia University, and moved to Seattle in 1907. Arthur Loveless is probably best known for his design of the beautiful “Loveless Building” (AKA the Studio Building) a
After working as an architect for nearly two decades in the Puget Sound area, Loveless designed the Studio Building (which quickly became one of his most admired works) to house the studios of artists. Both this home and the Loveless Building are inspired by the Cotswold District in England, a place that Mr. Loveless was quite fond of.
According to CapitolHillSeattle blog “Through the 1920’s Loveless worked on many prominent residences throughout the Puget Sound region. He also designed more Greek Row houses at the UW than any other architect, including Zeta Psi Fraternity, Beta Theta Pi Fraternity, and Delta Gamma Sorority.”
