Home design inspired by its surroundings

Thoroughly contemporary, thoughtfully detailed.

The designer details in this contemporary home make it stand out from the neighbors. Built on a 10,000 square foot infill property in the Garden Home-Hillsdale neighborhood of Southwest Portland, the surrounding homes inspire the design, rather than dictate it. The exterior is a modern mixture of cedar, stone, and corrugated stainless steel. High-performance features provide energy efficiency and healthier indoor air, while large windows and a covered patio provide an inviting backdrop of abundant foliage.

At over 3,200 square feet, the home features both a second-floor master suite and main level guest suite. Common areas abound, including a great room, home office, bonus room, and a possible game room or second office behind the fireplace.

A shop area within the two-car garage provides space for specialty projects. The fireplace mantle, with a stainless steel inset, stylistically echoes the surrounding built-in cabinetry.

Customizations demonstrated in practical and unique design.
