Design & Build
Rooted in Seattle
From a Pacific Northwest Practice to Your Front Door.
Pacific Blue Design & Build was founded by Seattle builders and designers who spent years inside other firms watching the same pattern repeat—designers who never visited the site, builders who never read the drawings, and homeowners caught in the gap between them.
We started this studio to close that gap. Pacific Blue Design & Build is structured as a single design-build practice for King, Pierce, and Kitsap County—so the person who sketches your floor plan is on a first-name basis with the person framing your walls, and every decision lives in one set of documents from the first site walk to final punch list.
WHAT GUIDES OUR PRACTICE
A single team from design through construction
Drawings developed for the way Seattle homes actually weather
Written change orders and fixed bids
Quiet, considered design that ages with the home
Clarity in Every Step
A Process Built to Keep You In Control.
A remodel is a long conversation between drawings, decisions, and the people who live inside the result. We've structured ours so the homeowner is never the last to know—and never the one chasing answers.

Pacific Northwest Remodeling Company
Crafted by Pacific Blue, Driven by Trust.
Every cabinet, casework run, and built-in we install is drawn in-house and produced through trade partners we've vetted personally. We don't carry a stock catalog because no two Pacific Northwest homes share the same wall, ceiling, or sightline—and the millwork shouldn't pretend otherwise.
— What you can expect
- Precision in every phase of construction
- Materials selected for durability and performance
- Clean, refined finishes
- Results designed for long-term use
The Right Team Matters
A Studio That Works With Intention.
A whole-home remodel is a months-long conversation between the family, the architect, and the crew. We staff Pacific Blue around that conversation—small teams, deep specialization, and the same faces in your home from first walk to final clean.
Skilled and experienced professionals
Coordinated project management
Clear roles and responsibilities
Consistent communication across all phases
Designed for Your Lifestyle
Built Around the Way Seattle Lives.
Seattle homes weren't drawn for big-box floor plans. They're drawn for grey light, indoor evenings, wet entries, mudrooms that actually need to drain, and a culture that pulls the outside in even when it's raining sideways. We design every Pacific Blue project around that reality—not a Sunbelt template adapted with darker paint.
Each home we touch is a one-of-a-kind brief. We listen, draw, and revise until the plan reflects how this household actually moves through a Tuesday in February—not just a staged Saturday in July
Open and functional layouts
Seamless indoor-outdoor transitions
Practical design with modern finishes
Spaces tailored to your lifestyle
More Than a Contractor
What Sets Pacific Blue Design & Build Apart.
Choosing the right design-build partner is about more than picking a portfolio you like. It's about how decisions get made when the unexpected shows up behind a wall—and Pacific Blue Design & Build is structured for that moment. A single studio. A single contract. A team accountable to the drawing, the budget, and you.

The Pacific blue difference
Elevating the Standard of Luxury Construction.
We don't just build homes; we engineer living experiences. By limiting our annual client intake, we ensure uncompromised dedication, transparent communication, and flawless execution for your estate.
How long does a whole-home remodeling transformation take?
Timelines vary with scope, permits, and material lead times. For context: a primary-suite and kitchen-focused remodel typically runs 14 to 20 weeks on site; a whole-home remodel involving structural changes typically runs 20 to 32 weeks; a full estate-level renovation can extend beyond. Every Shiro contract carries a written completion date with a per-diem accommodation guarantee if we miss that date for reasons within our control.
How do you help clients choose the right finishes?
Every commission is assigned an interior direction led by the principal. You receive a curated material palette produced for your residence — never a generic selection menu — brought to you on site or presented in our studio. Selections are locked before construction begins, the discipline that allows us to hold a fixed price.
Do you offer any warranty or guarantee on your work?
Absolutely. Shiro Builders Group provides a comprehensive multi-year craftsmanship warranty on all structural work and installations. Additionally, we facilitate and transfer all manufacturer warranties directly to you for appliances, premium fixtures, and materials.
How do you prepare the site before construction?
Site integrity is paramount. Before any work commences, we deploy heavy-duty floor protections, dust-containment barriers, and air scrubbers to isolate the construction zone. Your existing property and art are treated with the utmost respect throughout the process.
Is your company licensed and insured?
Yes. We carry premium-tier general liability insurance, workers' compensation, and are fully bonded and licensed to operate as general contractors in all luxury jurisdictions we serve. Certificates are provided seamlessly upon request.
What safety measures do you take on the job site?
We enforce strict OSHA compliance under the supervision of a dedicated Site Superintendent. Daily site cleanings, secure tool storage, and restricted subcontractor access ensure a safe, orderly environment for both our elite artisans and your family.
