ENFILADE HOUSE : Rising from Portland’s West Hills at the edge of Washington Park, this 5,200-square-foot family home was designed as a new beginning on a site with a deeply personal history.

After the original home was lost to fire, the project offered an opportunity to reimagine the property while maintaining its connection to the landscape and the family memories rooted there. Designed in collaboration with Waechter Architecture, the new residence takes cues from both its historic neighborhood and the steep, heavily wooded site that surrounds it.

A simple architectural form, off-white stucco, cascading terraces, and carefully preserved mature trees allow the home to settle into the landscape—creating a contemporary residence that feels both distinctly new and deeply connected to the place it replaces.

This is the first in a series sharing the story and details behind this remarkable home.

TANNER BASIN REMODEL : Upstairs, continuity and individuality coexist. Rift-sawn white oak flooring carries through each bedroom, while bathrooms introduce their own distinct palettes and materials—from pops of color to warm wood tones.

TANNER BASIN REMODEL : The primary suite was designed as a retreat grounded in texture and craftsmanship. In the bath, Tadelakt plaster, handmade terracotta tile, and Taj Mahal stone create a rich, tactile experience.

TANNER BASIN REMODEL : Designed with both relaxation and gathering in mind, the family room was reoriented to support the rhythms of everyday life. A custom seating layout and integrated entertainment setup create a comfortable hub for this sports-loving family, while a pass-through bookcase provides subtle separation without sacrificing connection to adjacent spaces. Layered textures, warm wood tones, and thoughtful detailing make the room feel both functional and inviting—equally suited for game day or quiet evenings at home.

THE CARLY ESTATE - FERN LODGE : The kitchen stands as a cornerstone of both daily use and special occasions. Designed as a professional-grade chef’s kitchen yet blending seamlessly into the home‑like atmosphere, it functions beautifully for intimate private chef dinners or larger gatherings. It can be closed off by massive barn-style doors to create more intimate events and features adjacent hidden scullery space for service and prep. Thoughtful lighting combinations—pendants over the island, flush mounts, picture lights—bring warmth and character throughout. The kitchen’s adaptable island and cabinetry layout allow hosts to reconfigure the space for cooking classes, plated dinners, or casual meals around the table, making it a heart of hospitality that's effortlessly transformed depending on the occasion. A more informal seating nook off the kitchen and great room celebrates the Beaver State with views of one of the properties many natural springs.

THE CARLY ESTATE - FERN LODGE : From the beginning, the owners of The Carly Estate envisioned a place that would invite connection—with community, nature, and a sense of relaxed luxury. As the plans evolved, so did the solutions. Early on, we discovered the building was underbuilt and overspanned. New glass openings and doors along the south wall initially appeared to require a new steel frame. Instead, the team collaborated to develop creative structural solutions that avoided disruptive columns in the great room and kept costs in check. By reinforcing the existing structure, exposing the beams, and vaulting the ceiling, the design now defines a dining area within the great room—framed by floor-to-ceiling views of the meadow and woods beyond, and filled with natural light throughout the day.

THE CARLY ESTATE - FERN LODGE : Welcome to the The Carly Estate, a boutique hotel estate nestled in Carlton, Oregon. Over the course of three years, our team thoughtfully guided the transformation of this property. Upon entering the Fern Lodge, the result of that intention is immediately felt—every nook and cranny carefully crafted and considered. From the warmth of the wood textures to the layered tile, art, seating, and lighting, each element works together to create spaces that feel both personal and communal, cozy yet deeply connected to nature.
