Project Details:
Location: Portland, Oregon
Architect: Ment Architecture
Footprint: 2,300 square feet
From the Architect: "Constructed in the 1960s, this home is unique for the Portland area and feels decidedly more Palm Springs than Pacific Northwest. Having largely avoided any detrimental renovations over the years, the home has proven to be a time capsule with many original details intact that provided clear design direction and references for implementing changes in the renovation."
"This home underwent a variety of updates, including restoration of the exterior, renovation of every interior space, and a new landscape scheme."
