IT’S BEEN A 30-YEAR WILD RIDE PUBLISHING PORTRAIT MAGAZINE. They say if you want to be happy, do what you love. Well, I did, and what a welcome surprise to meet so many incredibly talented and delightful people along the way. We get a first peek at amazing homes in the city, the coast, and nestled away in the forest. We stroll through lush gardens, and learn the stories of the artisans, winemakers, creative chefs, architects, and designers who are continuing to put the Northwest on the map worldwide. Here’s a glance at a few this time around.

Imagine building a four-story house so woven into the surrounding flora and fauna of Forest Park that it literally becomes a livable treehouse with all the modern amenities – perfect for the chef who purchased it before completion. Such are the achievements of Metcalf Design & Construction and William / Kaven Architecture in Portland who created this marvel.

Collaboration was the name of the game that inspired Ostmo Construction, Lord Interior Design and University of Oregon Art Historian Linda Falvey to transform a heavily laden 1961 hillside Portland home into a Midcentury gem gleaming with tongue and groove ceilings, soaring travertine fireplace, and unobstructed views of the city below.

With time of the essence, Julie Kleiner of Massucco Warner worked her magic by transforming the staid interiors of a splendid Orcas Island shingle style home originally constructed by DowBuilt to suit a pair of globe-trotting leisure pilots, who had sold their

Montecito home and all the furnishings in it. Arriving with just an ottoman, Great Dane, and dog bed, the couple now enjoy Kleiner’s polished, yet laidback interior design that fits them to a “T!” A ho-hum 1990s lakeside home gets a refreshing makeover that’s warm with modernism and unexpected organic industrial flare delivered by Whitestone Design Group and Schock Construction. Gone are the heavy river rock fireplace and Craftsman-esque built-ins replaced by a honed basalt fireplace, arched vestibule and glass fronted cabinets for a sleek airiness.

For those who love to cook, Knudsen Vineyards and Martin Woods Winery share their favorite recipes.

Eye On Design pages are filled with latest inspirations to update your interiors and outdoor spaces, along with where to source lighting, cabinetry, home furnishings, fabrics, wallcoverings and all things kitchen and bath.

If building, remodeling, or refreshing your interiors is a priority, be sure to check out the online portfolios of many of our favorite Northwest architects, designers, contractors, and local showrooms.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us, including our talented staff, writers, and photographers, who, frankly, have helped distinguish Portrait Magazine for 30 years. Join us for a super 2024 and beyond!

MIDCENTURY

MARVEL A SEAMLESS COLLABORATION BETWEEN OSTMO CONSTRUCTION, LORD INTERIOR DESIGN, AND HOMEOWNER LINDA FALVEY SERVED TO OPEN THE WOW FACTOR MISSING FROM THIS CLASSIC PORTLAND MIDCENTURY MODERN HOME.

AFTER EARNING AN ART HISTORY degree from University of Oregon, and years spent working in a San Francisco art gallery, Linda Falvey returned home to Portland a single woman passionate about transforming a 1961 hillside home in need of work, into a Midcentury gem.

A friend recommended Erik Ostmo of Ostmo Construction, who, in turn, suggested Arlene Lord of Lord Interior Design with whom he had often collaborated, to undertake the project. Ostmo and Lord quickly made Falvey an integral part of the team given her art historian background and gravitation toward design.

Lord recalls entering the home through a humble courtyard that suggested something special was going to happen within. A pair of closets, however, blocked the incredible view, leaving a small slice visible through an awkward doorway. “Arlene immediately inquired about the structural feasibility of removing the closets to open up the view,” says Ostmo, which required taking out an entire bearing wall and rebuilding it with added structural elements. Falvey says Arlene’s suggestion to replace the closet with a low-slung credenza would help separate the newly designed entry from the living room area. “When you open up spaces,” explains Lord, “you run the risk of awkward transitions between rooms. The credenza provided something for the sofa to butt up against, as well as define the two areas.”

Lord then proposed constructing a closet on the opposite entry wall, for which Falvey’s family-owned Culver Glass Company was chosen to enhance its doors.

PortraitMagazine.com

Falvey favors green, including these Lee Industry chairs and Bay Area artist Chris Brown’s artwork. Benjamin Moore Simply White adds pop to the furnishings juxtaposed against Lord’s wicker chair. The circular West Elm coffee table atop a hide rug adds contrast to refinished red oak floors.

Atop a Christiane Millinger rug, an Anthropologie Nemus dining table mimics BDDW Tyler Hays original. Lord introduced vintage upholstered chairs from Urbanite pairing with Falvey’s Cassina chairs, crowning it with Accent Lighting Fairfax chandelier.

Artwork by Falvey’s close friend’s son, Jack Williams.

An ever-ready Wolf range from Basco Appliances is flanked by handy Rockwood Cabinetry and quartz backsplash and countertops from Architectural Surfaces. Kable System lighting team with Visual Comfort pendants from Accent Lighting. Colonial Hardware from Hardware Hut.

One of the existing Midcentury elements that delighted Falvey was the 2x6 tongue and groove ceilings and beams found in the living areas. Her desire was to have those same ceilings throughout. It wasn’t until Ostmo began deconstructing the area that they realized the entry must have been an addition and would, therefore, need a sheetrock ceiling.

“The previous owner,” says Lord, “had taken the home’s decor into a very heavy French direction, when the home called out to be light, open, and timeless. Consequently, we all agreed to let the home’s history and architecture do the talking.” First and foremost, that meant magnifying the existing Midcentury travertine fireplace and wooden shelves as a focal point. Falvey’s new and vintage furnishings warmed the area, while Christiane Millinger rugs grounded all the living areas with their own brand of art on the floor.

The small, awkwardly laid out kitchen demanded the most transformation. The garage entry into a pantry led to a refrigerator jutting into another doorway on one side and stacked ovens on the other. A Wolf range now occupies the awkward oven space crowned by Lord’s artfully designed warm wood range hood. Ostmo Construction paired with Rockwood Cabinetry to PortraitMagazine.com

create Lord’s sleekly designed new cabinets, including one that houses the refrigerator conveniently located near the stove at right.

Ostmo also modified the bank of windows on the sink wall, while Kable System lighting enabled Lord to create task lighting wherever it was needed.

While gutting the entire top floor, Ostmo tore out the entry travertine tile as well as the carpet covering the original red oak flooring, which required refinishing. He then laid more red oak flooring throughout the remodeled kitchen and powder, creating a more contiguous look throughout.

“This project was truly collaborative,” says Lord, “with a fearlessness about widening the spaces as well as a playful juxtaposition of old and new.” Falvey marveled at the openness to her participation.

“Everyone was great with communication and collaboration and just lovely to work with.” ■ PROJECT SOURCES CONTRACTOR Ostmo Construction ostmoconstruction.com

PENTHOUSE PERFECTION NB DESIGN GROUP AND HOXIE HUGGINS CONSTRUCTION ANSWERED THESE WORLD TRAVELERS’ DESIRE TO TRANSFORM A NOTORIOUS, BUT MUTED SEATTLE PENTHOUSE INTO A BOLDLY VIBRANT ABODE.

A PART OF SEATTLE’S HISTORY was transformed recently when a young couple who purchased the fictional home of Christian Grey in the novel “50 Shades of Gray” condo approached co-principals James Fung and Whitney Maehara of NB Design Group to create a never-before-seen penthouse design. Pulsing with a bold, dynamic, and vibrant cutting-edge style, it perfectly reflects the lives of these young and fearless world travelers, proof that Fung and Maehara were up to the challenge. As were their oft-chosen contractors Hoxie Huggins Construction owners Rob Hoxie, Chris Huggins, and their nuts-and-bolts problem solver, superintendent Derek Hagar, who pulled all of the elements together.

“They bought the unit without any intention of keeping anything that was existing, including the walls,” recalls Fung. “The only thing we had to work around were the structural columns and exterior walls.” The challenge was both fun and exciting and required Fung and Maehara to employ a different set of playful, bold, and unique design muscles not typically employed in the Northwest.

From the moment you step off the elevator, whose very classic architectural plaster molding relief walls square off against a modern floor-to-ceiling rotating digital art panel, it’s clear you are in a different realm. Here, you are walking upon a unique tri-colored graphic marble tile floor past the kitchen featuring brilliant handmade

“These clients are intellectual people who had an appreciation for the craft and enjoyed partnering with us,” adds Hoxie. “Every week we’d meet, not around a table in a conference room, but walking through the unit, talking about things as they were going in, discussing ways to improve or refine as things were installed.” For example, the couple noted the walnut floors in the office, laid in a chevron pattern showed too many joints.

The primary closet reflects clients’ love for color. High gloss lacquered casework by Stusser Woodworks and custom marble flooring in Absolute Black, Mely Grey, and Afyon White.

The couple also love glass art and its Northwest history. To that end, not only did they commission Jason Christian to design, and hand blow a large glass sculpture for the kitchen, working in tandem with colors found in NB Design Group’s interior finishes, but they also took up glass blowing themselves.

What was once a warren of rooms is now open, cohesive spaces, with the living, dining room, bar, and kitchen contiguous to one another. “The living area feels intimate having oriented it toward the windows,” adds Fung. While Maehara notes that the clients’ love of Persian rugs led them to source a vintage one rich with color from 1st Dibs as the room’s first design element from which others followed.

The primary bathroom, located two steps up from the bathroom vestibule to provide space for plumbing, sets a different, cozier feel than the living spaces. Brazilian cherry wood flooring on the vanity

side counters Ipe panels and flooring in the large walk-in shower.

With the flip of a switch, the floor-to-ceiling windows in the shower become opaque for privacy. “This bathroom,” says Hoxie, “with all of the critical alignments and materials was, as a whole, one of the most challenging technical aspects of the project.”

“Since the couple looked at the project internationally,” explains Fung, “they were open to trying new things they’d seen or visited.”

Thus, her office features a complex sliding door that disappears onto a single ceiling track that is easy to operate, but challenging to construct. To reiterate the building’s curved exterior, both dining table and furnishings are rounded.

NB Design Group’s philosophy is to reflect their clients’ personalities and unique way of life. Clearly, this project coupled with Hoxie Huggins Construction’s superb work, was an unmitigated success. ■

MODERN TREEHOUSE written by MELISSA DALTON photography by JEREMY BITTERMANN / JBSA

WILLIAM / KAVEN ARCHITECTURE AND METCALF DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION OVERCOME CHALLENGING TERRAIN TO DESIGN AND BUILD A PEACEFUL ENCLAVE ADJOINING PORTLAND’S FOREST PARK.

This three-level, four-bedroom, 4,422 square foot house abutting Portland’s Forest Park was completed by William / Kaven Architecture and Metcalf Design & Construction in 2023.

The upper level offers green roofing.

ABOVE In the top floor observatory, the custom lounger is designed by William / Kaven Architecture and manufactured by Arrow Furniture Works.

The flooring is white oak with a black walnut inlay, installed by Custom Wood Flooring LLC, while the windows and doors throughout are Sierra Pacific. LEFT Custom steel railings surround the second-floor porch and were fabricated and installed by Metcalf Design & Construction.

THERE WAS A TIME WHEN A SITE like this one would have been called “unbuildable.” Located on the periphery of Forest Park in Portland, the topography slopes steeply down from the main road, ensconced in mature trees. “It’s a challenging lot, but I would say we specialize in challenging lots,” says Daniel Kaven, who alongside brother and fellow architect Trevor William Lewis, runs William / Kaven Architecture in Portland.

In 2014, the firm bought nine adjacent lots to develop a collection of custom houses, called the Royal series. The homes were designed to transcend the challenging terrain to mesh with their unique setting and utilize the unparalleled views into one of the largest urban forests in the country, all “without sacrificing the conveniences of city life,” says Kaven. This is the second house in the series, purchased by its owners before it was completed in 2023. “We’ve done a number of builds on really challenging sites, specifically steep ones with environmental concerns and overlays, and this house was really

hard to get a permit for,” says Kaven. “But that just makes it very rewarding for the finished product.”

Building on such a steep slope requires a knowledgeable builder, so the firm teamed up with Charlie Metcalf of Metcalf Design & Construction, who started building with his father as a teen. “My dad would actually buy what’s called flag lots, or lots that were deemed unbuildable, and build them,” says Metcalf, who notes that new technology and equipment has made the process much easier in the thirty years since.

For this project, the hill was excavated away and the steel, concrete, and glass structure constructed “to fill that void,” says Metcalf. Such an approach allows forest views across the floorplan, from the garage at the top, to the day-lit basement at the bottom. Floor-to-ceiling glass at each level further frames sightlines into the park, whether that’s the leafy boughs of the tree canopy, moss-tufted trunks, or ferns sprouting along the forest floor.

Perhaps William / Kaven could have stopped there, but additional design moves create the effect of full immersion. At the top floor, a green roof just outside the glass extends the gaze out. At the middle floor, the main living areas and a balcony are cantilevered out, and joined to one side by a porch that feels suspended alongside the tree trunks. Several corner windows have “no visible support,” says Metcalf. “That gives you a view from the corner that’s 180 degrees.”

The layout conforms to the location – the garage is on the top level so as to be easily accessible to the road. Yet with so much glass and natural light, even the most utilitarian spaces transcend the ordinary.

“All the floors are based around this wraparound spine of a staircase that works its way around a light well,” says Kaven. “Because we built 62

PortraitMagazine.com

it into a steep slope, we have this ample opening that goes all the way down the floors, with a skylight above. So, even when you’re on the bottom floor, which is partially subterranean, you get all of this light all the way down the house.”

Having bought the home prior to its finish, the owners, one a wellknown chef, requested the kitchen be enlarged at the center of the plan and paired with a pantry. Now, the substantial peninsula acts as an informal dining area, or can be a counter to stage cooking videos.

Natural tones in the finishes, including white oak cabinetry, quartz counters, and custom white-painted walls, don’t compete with the views out. “All the walls are painted a custom white color that we’ve developed to really enhance the light inside the house,” says Kaven.

The top floor has road access, so the architects placed the garage and driveway there, bookended by a gym on one side, and an entry “observatory” on the other, where the residents greet guests.

The lower level has additional bedrooms and a family room, as well as an exterior patio that extends from the concrete foundation walls and is protected by the cantilevered portion of the building above. The porches throughout offer Bahia Aluminum furnishings from RH.

Meanwhile, the exterior is equally respectful of the setting, with the firm even developing their own finish, called William / Kaven Bronze, for the window frames and exterior siding. The color reads differently depending on the light, much like the bark of the surrounding trees, veering from the black of a rain-soaked trunk, to the chocolate-brown or gray of the dry season. “All of the work we did for this is about blending into the forest,” says Kaven, proving the tenet that with great challenge comes great reward: “It’s so peaceful and quiet. You can really soak it in.” ■ 66

A CONTEMPORARY HOUSE WITH A MODEST FOOTPRINT BECOMES AN ASSET TO THE NATURAL LANDSCAPE FOR A FAMILY OF FOUR WITH GENERATIONAL TIES TO LOPEZ ISLAND.

AFTER GROWING UP VISITING FAMILY on Lopez Island, Heliotrope Architects’ clients were familiar with the land they eventually purchased – it was just a few houses down the beach from their family homestead. Heliotrope architect Joe Herrin shared their knowledge of the area – as well as their love for the islands.

Building on the islands is complex, and this lot was no exception.

“The property had significant challenges, including no potable water, habitat, geological and wetland buffers, and a resident eagle’s nest,” said Herrin. “Fortunately, we do lots of work in the San Juans, so we are familiar with the challenges.”

Heliotrope was granted a building permit by utilizing the footprint of an existing primitive cabin on the site. With the limited footprint, going vertical was the only way to accommodate the homeowners’ size and livability needs.

“This is a modestly sized home on a small footprint,” Herrin said.

“We used simple, local materials when possible and splurged on the important things.”

70

PortraitMagazine.com

For the home’s exterior, an economical cedar board and batten siding was installed in the reverse to use as little material as possible.

Inside is primarily sheetrock, and the floors are a wide plank, engineered wood, both less expensive materially and in installation costs.

The cabinet package was built by local Lopez cabinet maker William Post-Vanderberg.

Splurges included the stunning wall of glass across the front of the main room, spanning unfettered views of the Sound. “The homeowners’ priority was to connect to the environment meaningfully,” Herrin said. “The home is very open in the communal spaces, with a strong connection between inside and outside.”

Environmental considerations included a rain catchment system of 20k gallon tanks due to no available water or well rights on the property. A small guesthouse and carport provide the extra roof runoff to fill the tanks. “We are always targeting a zero-carbon footprint in our work,” Herrin said. “This home also includes extra insulation to compensate for the amount of glazing.”

Views from the home include the Sound, a protected wetland, and a bald eagle nest. The home’s exterior utilizes common materials installed unusually. The board and batten siding has been installed in reverse. The dark stain minimizes visual noise from the wood’s knotty appearance.

“The home is very open in the communal spaces, with a strong connection between inside and outside.” .

—Joe Herrin, Heliotrope Architects

Aesthetically, the home is equal parts modern and classically familiar. “The owners didn’t want the home to be too contemporary and cold,” said Herrin.

“We’ve integrated transitional elements into the overall silhouette by playing with a classic gable-roof form but cutting out a big chunk of the ground floor for the pass-through views.” The décor is not over-styled or overdone. It is a laid-back space to connect to nature – not compete with the surrounding environment.

Fixtures, surfaces, and furniture are informed by the natural surrounds. Calcutta Ultra Quartz countertop from Scrivanich Natural Stone graces the kitchen island. The kitchen sports Vancouver Island Carmanah Marble counters. The frosted 31 Bubble Chandelier from The Light Factory is a sophisticated ode to beach-house tropes.

Smaller, traditional-leaning paned windows in the bedrooms above provide a sense of protection and enclosure, and the contrast with the open space below adds visual variety. The three floors are connected by an open stair capped by a large skylight, which pours light into levels below.

The home remains nearly invisible from the public shoreline in deference to its natural surroundings.

A lifelong resident of Lopez, builder Paul Fragnoli of Thomas Fragnoli Construction, appreciates the home’s integration into the landscape. “You almost can’t see the house from out on the water. It’s unostentatious from that viewpoint, but a spectacular presence when looking across it to the shoreline.”

Other thoughtful details include placing the outdoor entertainment area at the back of the home.

“We’ve done a lot of waterfront houses and have

The main bedroom can be fully opened to the ensuite via a sliding door. Traditional paned glazing on the upper floor provides privacy while tempering the home’s modern silhouette. The bathroom tile is Stella Nero Encaustic star tile from Merola.

learned the lesson that you need to have outdoor spaces on both sides of the house.

That water is cold all year, so even in the summer, there can be a cold wind,” said Herrin. “Having the outdoor entertainment on the lee side of the house gives you some wind coverage while also being directly adjacent to the kitchen.”

The home also evolved as the family grew, and the timeline was impacted by COVID-19. “The homeowners’ thoughts and perspectives changed throughout the project,” said Fragnoli. “As a more introverted lifestyle and remote work grew from the pandemic experience, and kids became older, the idea of spending more time there became prevalent. The team was fluid and flexible, creating a great working environment.”

Initially slated as a mechanical space, the top floor became functional with a vaulted ceiling, loft, and workout room. A seven-foot window seat is a contemplative space to observe outside and the active eagle’s nest.”

“It’s the perfect integration of dwelling and landscape,” said Fragnoli. “Simple, beautiful, and natural. ■ 76

WHEN A PAIR OF LICENSED LEISURE PILOTS were perusing an article found on a private airplane hangar magazine rack featuring Julie Kleiner’s elegant traditional interior design work, it was kismet. The couple had just sold their Montecito home, furnishings included, and purchased an exquisitely built shingle style home on Orcas Island that was empty. “Time was of the essence,” say the homeowners, “and we knew we needed a pro like Julie to guide us.”

“Although the architecture was picture perfect inside and out, the interior décor was too formal for this adventurous, fun-loving couple, who had arrived with just one chair, an ottoman, their Great Dane and her dog bed,” recalls Kleiner whose own heart-stopping arrival on Orcas Island was from a seaplane that dropped her onto a dock via a rope ladder.

With the home’s lack of beach feel, Kleiner suggested adding soft colors, great artwork, and comfortable furniture. The pièce de

résistance, however, would be the Niermann Weeks giant palm tree chandelier presiding over a Gregorious Pineo dining room table.

“We gave Julie a wide berth to be the expert she is,” says the woman homeowner, who loved the nod to their California roots.

To suit both the clients’ mechanical and nautical expertise, Kleiner chose lighting that also functions as decorative art. Fabricated metal banding on the kitchen pendants are finished with blue magnifying glass bottoms, while the custom ceramic dining room table lamps boast platinum banding.

Back-to-back living room sofas honor the homeowners’ desire to enjoy a view of the water before napping. “It’s rare to find a room that lends itself to this type of configuration,” says Kleiner, who adds that the sofas’ exacting design reflects not only the homeowners’ style, but also the heft of a 100-lb dog, who might decide to lounge on them as well.

A trip to the Blue Whale in Los Angeles enabled Kleiner and the homeowners to discover plenty of outdoor furniture suitable for making the expansive waterside deck another living space. Thanks to porch ceiling heaters, the porch is habitable ten months of the year.

Kleiner relied on DowBuilt, who constructed the home originally following architect Conard Romano’s plans, to expertly undertake not only the cosmetic changes and necessary repairs, but also prep the painting and facilitate getting the homeowner’s Hartley Botanic greenhouse situated on the patio with services to it.

“DowBuilt has a specific service team on the island with great communication from a distance via video calls and emails,” says Kleiner, “and I trust them to the hilt!” The homeowners were thrilled with them as well. “It was such a relief to be able to call on somebody

On rainy days, you might find the couple sipping coffee inside the Hartley Botanic greenhouse, enjoying the peacefulness they’ve found in their new home. “We were blown away by the spectacular setting when we first saw the property,” says the woman, “but there was a formalness we wanted to tone down. Thankfully, Julie has made the house so polished and pulled together while also being very laid back and comfortable, which fits our lives to a T!” ■ 86

TWO FRIENDS – SHE’S A RESIDENTIAL DESIGNER FROM SPACE LAB DESIGN SERVICES AND HE’S A CONTRACTOR THAT FOUNDED STONEWOOD DESIGN – COLLABORATE WITH TALL PINES CONSTRUCTION TO CREATE A PERSONAL WELLNESS RETREAT IN SUNCADIA.

THE FIRST TIME VLADIMIR ZAYSHLYY drove to Suncadia for a visit about sixteen years ago, the Kirkland, Washington resident was surprised. He remembers thinking: “Why didn’t I know about this place before now?” For the next ten years—come winter, summer, or just a long holiday weekend—Vlad and his wife Era found any excuse to rent houses at the resort with friends and family. With each successive trip, the couple thought for sure that they’d get tired of the area. “But instead, we found that, the more we came to visit, the more we loved it,” says Vlad. “It became our dream to build a house there.”

Since 2002, Vlad has run Stonewood Design in Kirkland, specializing in the fabrication and installation of decorative finishes, like tile, 90

countertops, and flooring. To kick off his personal Suncadia project, he teamed up with architect Rick Jones for the home’s architectural configuration and permitting, and the Bellevue-based Tall Pines Construction on the build-out, with Tall Pines breaking ground, laying the foundation, erecting the home’s structural framework, and installing mechanical systems. “It’s an unusual way of working with a customer, as most contractors just want to take a project from start to finish,” says Tim Pigatto, owner of Tall Pines. “But it was nice to be part of building Vlad’s house this way.”

With the structure in place, Stonewood Design completed installation on all of the interior finishes, working closely with residential designer Tatiana Darnell, the founder of Space Lab Design Services

in Newcastle, who is a longtime friend of Vlad and Era. “We go way back,” says Darnell. “We all met in the late 90’s when we first came to the US.” Being in the same industry, Zayshlyy and Darnell have worked together on multiple projects over the years before the Suncadia house. Their friendship made for smooth collaboration here, as Darnell refined the look and function for all of the interior spaces, from the fireplace feature wall in the living room, to the kitchen cabinetry layout, and bathroom faucets. “It was great because Vlad and Era both understand construction,” says Darnell. “And they have a great sense of style and design. They love Suncadia and wanted this house to embrace the feeling that you get when you’re there: of rest and peace.”

On the exterior, the house adheres to the mountain lodge aesthetic of the area, with Western Red Cedar siding, matte black metal roofing, and stone accents. Inside, Darnell continued that palette of earth tones and natural materials, starting with a massive stone feature wall that anchors the entry and great room. The wall visually separates the entry from the living spaces, while the material itself, both its rustic texture and colors, inspired the palette throughout.

“The colors of the stone determined the palette for all of the interiors,” says Darnell. “It brings a rustic element that everything else is connected to.” The stone’s colors—a spectrum of grey, blue, cream, and brown—are woven throughout the rest of the home, appearing in things like the sleek furniture picks from Restoration Hardware and Phillip Jeffries wallpaper in a bedroom.

The wallcovering, Studs and Stripes Vertical Rose Gold 5784-V, is from Phillip Jeffries, and the Monterey bedside table is from RH.

The bathroom has a Luce Di Luna Quarzite countertop, and a Lava Toupe Porcelain floor, both from Stonewood Design.

“It was great because Vlad and Era both understand construction and they have a great sense of style and design. They love Suncadia and wanted this house to embrace the feeling that you get when you’re there: of rest and peace.”

Darnell also repeated the stone on the fireplace wall in the living room, topping it with a towering column of blackened steel paneling. Additional black steel accents across various rooms, like the custom railings, select light fixtures, and the stove hood, offer refined contrast to the stone’s rustic texture.

That refinement continues in the kitchen, with its custom cabinetry, honed quartzite, and handmade tile backsplash. Darnell organized the room for ultimate functionality, adding a concealed pantry and mesh inserts to the upper cabinets so guests can preview their contents. “The worst thing, which I think happens in every vacation rental, is having to open every door when you’re looking for a glass or bowl,” says Darnell.

The Glacier Mountain Ledgestone veneer is also used outside for consistency, paired with Western Red Cedar siding from Wine Valley Siding, NRM-6000 Matte Black roofing from Nu-Ray Metals, and Asphalt Shingle tiles from Paramount Advantage.

Vlad and Era have “a lot of family and they like to gather with friends,” adds Darnell, so it was important to balance the 3,934-square-foot layout between private sanctuaries, like the five individual bedroom suites and upstairs kids’ bunk room attached to a bonus game room, with beautiful communal gathering spots. To that end, a wellness retreat was given priority of place on the main floor. It has a dry sauna, steam shower, and its own sitting room, all wrapped in soothing natural finishes, and is complemented by a nearby exterior cold plunge and hot tub.

Such a retreat brings all the threads of the project together, acting as a place where friends and family can unwind side-by-side, or steal away for a solo moment. It’s also a nod to Vlad’s background, and emblematic of the house’s purpose as a whole. “My roots are Eastern European,” says Vlad. “There, it’s a pretty big deal to have a sauna with a cold plunge, a steam room, and an area where you can relax and just sit down and drink tea. And here at Suncadia, the number one goal is to relax and recharge.” ■ 94

LIFE ON THE RIVER

written by MELISSA DALTON photography by CHERYL MCINTOSH

A FAMILY OF FOUR ENJOYS THE LIFE AQUATIC IN THIS CUSTOM RIVERSIDE HOME IN BEND BY KAREN SMULAND ARCHITECT, HARPER HOUSE DESIGN, AND TREVIN DUEY CONSTRUCTION.

THIS HOME IS ALL ABOUT THE RIVER running behind it. Consider a typical summer Saturday afternoon for the family that lives there: “Our favorite thing to do is to have people float the river and then get out at our house,” says the owner. “After that, we go in the hot tub and barbecue.”

It was just such days that the active, outdoorsy owners envisioned when they were relocating to Bend, Oregon from overseas a few years ago. Their house search led them to this neighborhood, and eventually, a small cottage on a double lot with 100 feet of Deschutes River frontage. “The first thing that they wanted me to help with was to determine whether or not the existing home was salvageable,” says architect Karen Smuland. “They wanted to be really thoughtful about how they could add enough space for a family of four.”

However, not only was the existing house quite small, a portion of it did not have a foundation, making it unfeasible to add a second floor. The next step was deconstruction, led by contractor Trevin Duey Construction. “We deconstructed instead of demolished,” says Duey. “We recycled a good portion of the materials, donating to Habitat for Humanity, and repurposing wood that had value.”

Many furnishings in the living room are from Harper House Design, including the Four Hands Braden Chairs, Lee Industries 3893-03 sofa, custom MAD Furniture fainting couch, Armadillo Fex Rug in Natural, and Visual Comfort Mayotte Large Floor Lamp.

For the ensuing design of the new 3,800 square foot house, Smuland took the whole site into consideration, from the heritage trees in front and back to be preserved, to the dramatic rock outcroppings along the water, to the best interior places to capture the river views. “Karen lives just three or four blocks away from us,” says the owner. “So, she spent a lot of time on our site at different times of day. She would measure and figure out view corridors from different heights and places in the lot.”

The resulting home has an enhanced indoor-outdoor connection.

Not only do most rooms capture the views but features like large folding glass doors in the main living room and guest bedroom, an awning window over the kitchen counter, and balcony at the primary suite, all open up to the backyard. There, terraced levels designed by landscape architect Michael Szabo step down to the water, including 100 PortraitMagazine.com

multiple spots for patios, a hot tub, a covered outdoor kitchen and lounge, and firepit.

“Almost all of the homes that we work on here in Bend prioritize highlighting the natural landscape, but rarely do we get to work on a home that’s right on the river,” says interior designer Lucy Roland of Harper House, who also joined the project team early on. “It’s such a beautiful natural location that is unique to Bend.” Exterior materials like natural wood siding, board-formed concrete, and standing seam metal roofs, ensure the home fits with the special setting, while Roland’s interior design delivers a “modern Scandinavian feel” that’s also up to regular exposure to any mud and water tracked inside.

“Lucy really balanced the need for living in a beautiful space with being really functional for young kids, pets, and life on the river,” says the owner.

The kitchen’s concrete counters sync with the cement surround and hearth in the living room, both from Cement Elegance. The rift-cut white oak flooring throughout is from Castle Bespoke.

Since the home’s completion in 2020, the family has come to appreciate the many ways their life aquatic has been considered in the team’s design and build, from the hardworking mudroom that’s perfect for drying wetsuits, to a typical morning sight: “I literally wake up in bed and see the full river, down to the Old Mill and the American flag flying off of the top of REI,” says the owner.

“It’s magical.” ■ PROJECT SOURCES CONTRACTOR Trevin Duey Construction trevindueyconstruction.com ARCHITECT Karen Smuland Architect ksmulandarchitect.com INTERIOR DESIGN Harper House Design harperhousedesign.com LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE Szabo Landscape Architecture szabo-la.com

SIMPLE ELEGANCE written by EMILY ZAHNISER photography by JOHN GRANEN

THE CRAMPED KITCHEN IN THIS WEST SEATTLE TUDOR IS TRANSFORMED INTO A BRIGHT AND AIRY FAMILY HUB WORTHY OF THE HOME’S CLASSIC WARMTH AND CHARM.

WENDY ROSS AND TOMAS GILBERT knew they wanted a home in West Seattle, but five years ago, the housing market made it difficult for them to find the perfect move-in fit. “We kept getting outbid by cash offers,” said Ross. “So, our realtor recommended we take a different approach.” Ross and Gilbert were brought to to a charming historic Tudor with one major problem – a nearly unusable kitchen.

“It was a depressing, dark little place,” said Ross. “There was no dishwasher, a cramped breakfast nook that wasn’t usable, and barely

more than one person could fit in at a time.” Remnants of a previous remodel included dated mid-century blond wood cabinets and a linoleum floor.

Ross and Gilbert decided to bring in the professionals.

Lauren Hockema of K&L Interiors helped Ross and Gilbert find more space, light, and functionality, harmonizing the kitchen with the rest of the home’s style.

“We removed a wall to the adjacent dining room and removed the breakfast “nook” which was only functional as storage,” said

The custom cabinets by Acorn Cabinets feature Massey Unlacquered Brass hardware from Rejuvenation. They’re painted in Benjamin Moore Bruton White, a subtle, warm white with grey and beige undertones. Additional cabinets were added in the existing dining room to tie the spaces together.

The Italian brass faucet and side spray are Rohl San Julio Bridge from Ferguson. The Classic Shaker Single Bowl Farmhouse Apron Front Fireclay Kitchen Sink is by Shaws and also sourced from Ferguson.

Hockema. Windows were shifted to add light in the right places, and additional cabinetry, flush to the ceiling, brought more storage space in the enlarged footprint.

Stylistically, the kitchen adopts the more traditional spirit of the 1931 home, as if it has always been there. “The terra cotta floor tile has a raw finish meant to patina,” Hockema said.

“Giving it a lived-in look like it’s original to the house.”

Hockema had a custom surround built for the Zephyr 30” Monsoon stove hood insert.

“The house has many curved shapes, including entryways and built-ins. The softer lines of

Hockema kept the lighting plan minimal.

It includes a Waterworks, Henry Ceiling Mounted Pendant with Glass Shade in Natural Brass from Chown Hardware.

Chef-approved appliances from Albert Lee Appliance include a Bertazzoni Master Series Dual-Fuel Range and a Fisher & Paykel 32” Freestanding Refrigerator.

Hockema strategically chose appliances with a smaller footprint to not overwhelm the space or compromise the counter surface.

the hood tie into that,” said Hockema. It has been painted the same Benjamin Moore Bruton White as the cabinets. “It’s the perfect, subtle, warm grey-beige.”

There is a classic farmhouse sink and unfinished brass hardware and plumbing. The natural, unpainted finish of the windows and baseboards has been matched to the rest of the house. The stone quartzite countertops have a traditional marble look but are more durable.

Ross and Gilbert trusted Hockema and Paul Quade from STS Construction Services enough to move out of the house while the remodel occurred. “We came home to what I think is one of the best-looking kitchens I’ve ever been in,” said Ross. “Now it’s bright, airy, and beautiful. The whole experience was fantastic. Lauren did an amazing job, and Paul brought it all together on time and on budget.” ■

Page Knudsen Cowles, owner and managing partner Knudsen Vineyards Region: Willamette Valley knudsenvineyards.com

WHEN PAGE KNUDSEN COWLES remembers her father, C. Calvert “Cal” Knudsen, his love for cooking and wine are top of mind.

Cal and his wife Julia Lee bought a 200-acre former walnut orchard in 1971, and promptly planted grape vines. “He and my mom went to France in the late 1960s and they both came back very smitten with the regions of Champagne and Burgundy,” says Page.

“It was always very clear growing up what the vineyard meant to him,” says Page. “It was his passion project.” Today, the second generation builds on that family legacy. Page and her three brothers returned to the land their parents loved and took the reins. In 2014, they released the first Knudsen Vineyards wine label in twenty-five years. Since then, they have created a series of wines honoring their parents. “Our goal is to be good stewards of the vineyards they loved,” says Page, “and to grow their dream with the next generation.”

Cut the top and bottom off the blood oranges to expose the flesh. Cut along the curvature of the fruit to remove the peel and white pith.

Working over a bowl, cut between the membranes of the fruit to release the segments, letting them drop into the bowl along with any juice. Squeeze the membranes to extract all the blood orange juice to use in the vinaigrette.

Preparation: Blood Orange Vinaigrette In a small bowl, combine all ingredients except the hazelnut oil.

Drizzle in the oil, whisking until emulsified.

Assembly Divide the roasted mushrooms among four plates.

Arrange a few blood orange segments and avocado slices on top of each serving, alternating them.

Divide shrimp among the plates and drizzle with blood orange vinaigrette.

Evan Woods, winemaker Martin Woods Winery Region: Willamette Valley martinwoodswinery.com

GROWING UP IN INDIANA, wine was commonplace on Evan Martin’s family table, although it was never the object of conversation.

The focus instead was his mother’s food—always delicious and often Mediterranean driven. It made a lasting impact, so Evan started cooking while finishing college in Seattle. In 2004 he followed up on his wine interest with an internship at Seven Hills Winery in Walla Walla.

Evan spent the next few years traveling and working in restaurants.

He landed in Santa Fe, where he eventually studied with the Court of Master Sommeliers. The sommelier’s role provided an opportunity to taste widely. He developed a deep love for the wines of France and noticed the wines of Oregon seemed capable of bearing a welcome resemblance.

In 2009 Evan returned to wine production, securing a harvest gig at Belle Pente. In 2017, Evan acquired a wooded property (subsequently named Martin Woods) in McMinnville AVA, and he established his own winery on site. In 2021, Evan opened HiFi Wine Bar in downtown McMinnville.

In a medium saucepan, combine butter, salt, sugar, and 1 cup water and bring to a boil over medium heat. Add flour and stir constantly with a wooden spoon for 2 minutes, until flour is thoroughly incorporated and the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the pan to form a ball. Remove pan from the heat.

Transfer dough to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.

Beat on low speed for 5 minutes, until slightly cooled. Beat in 4 eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated. Stir in Parmesan, chives, and pepper.

Using a small scoop (about ¾ tablespoon), scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, evenly spaced 1 inch apart. You should have about 32 mounds.

In a small bowl, whisk the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon water. Brush the tops of the dough mounds with egg wash. Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350º F. and bake for another 25 minutes, until golden brown.

Preparation: Citrus Aioli In a food processor, combine egg yolk, lemon juice, cayenne and salt. Slowly add olive oil in a thin stream until emulsified. Whisk in citrus zests.

Preparation: Shrimp Salad Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Assembly Using a serrated knife, cut gougeres in half. When gougères are cool, fill each half with 1 tablespoon shrimp salad. Place on a serving platter and sprinkle with salt. Drizzle a little oil on top and garnish with edible flowers.
