Reimagined Craftsman

Portland, Oregon

Location! Location! Location! After living in their home for 18 years, the owners looked to move, but like most, couldn’t find anything that checked all the boxes. The task was to carefully deconstruct the 100-year-old home and rebuild to suit the couple’s contemporary needs while preserving the neighborhood’s character. The homeowners had a great sense of design and a smart architectural plan to bring natural light into their three-story-home on a narrow site. The new home’s basement features two short-term rental units with dedicated entry for travelers to fit right into the vibrant neighborhood.

Heather was incredible in guiding our vision with her design expertise. Steve Hunt – the nicest man in the world – was incredibly patient with us and went out of his way to make sure things were just right.
