Project Description

An old house with multiple additions on a beautiful site at the top of Mt. Tabor in Portland, OR. The house gets a lift by removing the structure down to the floor framing, then adding an expanded two-story, contextually relevant, craftsman house.  First floor spaces focus on small, up-close constructed views and the second floor master suite looks over the neighbors to the borrowed landscape of Mt. Hood and the Cascade range
