How to Make a Small Home Bigger

When a small home is made even smaller by a cluster of rooms, the logical design solution is to remove walls. Luckily none were load-bearing. Only one window was sacrificed in the merging of the entry, living room, dining room, kitchen and breakfast nook, and the results are stunning!

Country Living in the City

When you love your location and neighbors, many times it is more financially beneficial to add on. For our client and their family, adding on to an existing small farm house in SW Portland was the best decision. We increased the size of the kitchen and added a family room.

Formal Dining Room - Nope!

Cambria quartz was used on the counters for easy cleaning and low maintenance. The Brizo Talo faucet with “smart touch” technology is accessible for even the youngest household member. A warming drawer (the purchase of which was strongly encourage by their designer) – became the second most valued appliance in the kitchen (right behind the built-in coffee maker). The glazed finish on the cabinets are perfect for hiding unexpected bumps and bruises from toy impacts.

Southern Home in Oregon

Our client’s are from the south and wanted their Lake Oswego home to look and feel like “home”. We vaulted the ceiling and added faux beams. The oak floor is painted black and white. Local tile artisans from Pratt and Larson tile created the accent tile behind the range. Marble countertops and copper farm sink add to the charm. The painted cabinets in the kitchen, hutch and laundry room are finished with milk paint to add that “down home feel”.

Sunset on Guam

Our client grew up on Guam and what he missed most was the incredible sunsets. That became our inspiration for his home. We used sapele wood to represent the grain on the trees. The paint colors for the walls came right from an image our client gave us as inspiration.

South Portland Condo

Designing in condos are challenging. This kitchen’s biggest issue was that the range and sink were too close to the corner. The results being: minimum working space in the most used area of the kitchen (the space between the sink and the cooktop). The challenge of working in a condo is moving plumbing and ducting. Once you open a shared wall, the costs skyrocket, not to mention the design review committee conflicts. Our solution: by accurately measuring the exact location of the ducting and sink plumbing, and creating a custom designed hood (and an incredibly talented contractor and tile installer), we were able to increase the space between the sink and range exponentially!
