What a pool house design project looks like here
Pioneer Square is a National Historic Landmark District (federal) — Seattle's only NHL and one of the most significant Victorian-era commercial districts in the American West.
Because Preservation Board review is rigorous, exterior changes typically take 8-12 weeks for approval alone — before SDCI permit.
The 1889-1910 stock was rebuilt after the Great Seattle Fire (1889) — many buildings have unique above-street construction where the current ground floor was originally the second story.
Covered cabanas, pool pavilions, guest cottages — Laurelhurst / Madison Park / Washington Park estates. In Pioneer Square specifically, richardsonian romanesque + victorian commercial (1889-1910) stock means pool house design scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology.

Who is Baily?
Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.
He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.
That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.
Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
