West Hills Home

We provided architecture and interior design services for this approximately 4,200 square foot new construction home in an established Portland neighborhood.

1. In 2007, this project won first place for interior design for a traditional home from the Seattle Design Center. Pictured here is the home's foyer; we used ebonized oak flooring throughout the home.

2. This home represents a marriage of modern and traditional aesthetics. The fire place shown here is custom-made with welded sheet metal; we provided its design and oversaw its fabrication.

3. For this dining room, we custom-designed the benches and table. It also features vintage light fixtures. The client wanted to showcase their art collection; we used traditional picture railing and wainscot to enhance their pieces.

4. In the kitchen, the traditional and the modern continue their interplay through honed granite counters, modern stools and appliances, and reclaimed vintage factory lights. This warm, inviting space makes meals with friends and family fun and easy, while low contrast colors showcase the food and flavors created here.

5. When designing a home, we tuck storage in wherever we can, taking into account the everyday objects in our clients lives. In this view of the kitchen, an end wall is converted into a combination of book shelves and pass-through storage shelves for a glass collection.

6. This intimate family room is packed with electronics, so there's plenty of cabinet space for a television, stereo and media components, CDs , DVDs, and books, without overwhelming the room.

7. The children's bath features a double custom vanity, custom tile layout for visual interest, and wall-mounted cabinets that allow the children's foot stools to be tucked away for storage.
