About This Project

The Bald Peak Residence stands as a remarkable transformation of a simple 3-car garage into a stunning 2-story craftsman-style home, expertly designed to take advantage of its breathtaking panoramic views in Washington County, Oregon. This project was driven by the need to create a robust and inviting space that could withstand the elements of this wind-swept location. The design features a striking observation tower that elevates the visual impact of the home, inviting residents and guests alike to enjoy the surrounding beauty. To achieve a solid and durable structure, the project incorporated soy-based spray-in insulation within the walls and roof. This eco-friendly choice not only supports the home's resilience against harsh weather but also contributes to its energy efficiency. Complementing this sustainable approach, the residence employs a geothermal energy system, paired with radiant floor heating throughout, ensuring that the home remains comfortable year-round while minimizing energy consumption. The craftsmanship evident in the exterior design highlights traditional elements associated with the craftsman style, characterized by its attention to detail and quality materials. Double-glazed windows enhance the home's thermal efficiency, while also allowing natural light to flood the interior spaces and frame the expansive views. The exterior boasts a harmonious blend of materials, contributing to both the aesthetic appeal and structural integrity of the residence. As the project neared completion, landscaping and hardscaping enhancements were scheduled for spring 2015, further enriching the outdoor environment and integrating the home with its natural surroundings. The Bald Peak Residence is not just a home; it is a testament to thoughtful design and expert craftsmanship, offering a serene retreat that invites exploration and relaxation amidst stunning vistas.
