View Video of Project >

Dave and Paige are a young professional couple in Portland, Oregon who we finished a new house for recently. They both owned small homes but were in the process of getting married and of course would only need one home. Paige had a very nice, but small home in a very desirable area in SW Portland. It was on a nice level lot that did not give us any major challenges.

We worked with an architect that I have used many times in the past and he did a great job of incorporating every ones ideas into the final plan. My wife is of course an interior designer and she took the lead in that department. She gave us great direction on every aspect of the design. It would have been very difficult without her. We worked well as a team and all made contributions.

The process started in January to get the plans ready go over all the details and get our permits from the county so we could start building in June. We started June 1st and finished just slightly over 5 months later. So basically 5 months of planning and revisions and 5 months to build the house. It is about 2800 sq. ft. of Craftsman style home. It has a great open concept, which everyone is trying to achieve in their homes today. The finished home is exceptional as we have an amazing group of subcontractors. Many have worked for us for over 20 years.

The house is very thermally efficient and the quality of construction is outstanding.
