The project
Ment Architecture reimagined this 2,200 sq ft house for a couple in southeast Portland, stripping it back to the studs and adding new insulation, lighting, plumbing and finishes. It was completed in 2019.
With only eight-foot ceilings, the design adds vertical elements, including a reclaimed timber screen at the entrance. Black windows, hardware and fixtures contrast with white walls and pale floors, and structural changes open up the plan so the house feels larger than its footprint.
