Best Practice Architecture transformed a 1950s house in Seattle's Mt Baker neighbourhood into Lil Shingle, a multigenerational home clad in wooden shingles with a self-contained basement apartment.

Readers discussed the conversion, with one saying "everything old becomes new again" and another calling it "a humble, budget-conscious solution".
