The architecture of this mid-century ranch in Portland’s West Hills oozes modernism’s core values. We wanted to focus on areas of the home that didn’t maximize the architectural beauty. The Client—a family of three, with Lucy the Great Dane, wanted to improve what was existing and update the kitchen and Jack and Jill Bathrooms, add some cool storage solutions and generally revamp the house. We totally reimagined the entry to provide a “wow” moment for all to enjoy whilst entering the property. A giant pivot door was used to replace the dated solid wood door and side light. We designed and built new open cabinetry in the kitchen allowing for more light in what was a dark spot. The kitchen got a makeover by reconfiguring the key elements and new concrete flooring, new stove, hood, bar, counter top, and a new lighting plan. Our work on the Humphrey House was featured in Dwell Magazine.

This contemporary Master Ensuite exudes elegance and warmth. The timber veneer detail and Italian porcelain marble-look tiles, beautifully complement the Apaiser vanity and bathtub.

Badezimmer mit bodengleicher Dusche. Die Wandflächen sind mit Kalkputz in einem sandigen Farbton gestaltet. Schöne Details sind das Bullaugenfenster und die eingebauten Wandregale, die ebenso mit Kalkputz bearbeitet wurden.

Cream walls, trim and ceiling are featured alongside white subway tile with cream tile accents. A Venetian mirror hangs above a white porcelain pedestal sink and alongside a complementary toilet. A brushed nickel faucet and accessories contrast with the Calcutta gold floor tile, tub deck and shower shelves. A leaded glass window, vintage milk glass ceiling light and frosted glass and brushed nickel wall light continue the crisp, clean feeling of this bright bathroom. The vintage 1920s flavor of this room reflects the original look of its elegant, sophisticated home.

Stone Shower Tray - The clients brief asked for extra living and sleeping areas. Due to the unusual shape of the rear garden and north facing orientation, we proposed a long single storey extension along the side of the garden. The new east facing extension housed the new living areas which receive morning light through the large timber sliding doors which opened to the stone clad garden. We used a curved zinc clad roof to detract from the linear feel with a central rooflight to pull light into the house in the afternoon. This design retained a regular shaped garden. The client’s passion for natural materials and beautiful stone is evident throughout, not just in the bathroom but throughout the ground floor, including the guest bedroom where we housed a custom designed handmade Turkish sunken stone bath. www.dmvf.ie.
