Projects

Architecture is a combination of light and materiality, art and craft – uniting to create form. Construction is the organized arrangement of these forms. Our work reflects every client’s project goals - spaces and objects of great beauty and substantial value for modern work, play, and living.

Line 14

Located in the Hawthorne neighborhood of Portland, this project reshapes an existing house into a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home and incorporates a 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath accessory dwelling. Two simple shed forms create interior spaces oriented to distinct outdoor living areas, and feature separate entrys, a converted carraige house for bicycle parking, and rainwater harvesting.
