About This Project

Nestled in the picturesque rolling hills above Portland, Oregon, the Modern Craftsman home stands as a testament to innovative design and sustainable living. This residence was meticulously crafted through a collaboration between Departure and two families embarking on a new journey together. The architectural layout is centered around an inviting east-facing courtyard, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces while enhancing the home’s natural light and warmth. The thoughtful arrangement not only maximizes views of the nearby foothills but also fosters a sense of community and connection among family members. Sustainability was a core principle in the design of this home, evident in the choice of materials and construction techniques. The project features salvaged elements that tell a story of both elegance and environmental responsibility. Recycled gym floors have been repurposed to create stunning flooring, while salvaged fir trim adds a touch of rustic charm throughout the interiors. Tiled backsplashes and unique light fixtures, sourced sustainably, further exemplify the commitment to eco-friendly design. Additionally, low-flow plumbing fixtures and super-insulated walls with soy-based insulation not only minimize the home’s ecological footprint but also enhance energy efficiency for the long term. The craftsmanship is evident in every corner of the Modern Craftsman, particularly in spaces like the master bathroom, which has been designed as a serene retreat. Here, efficiency meets pleasure, with features such as a shiatsu foot massage system to invigorate the homeowners each morning. This thoughtful detail transforms the daily routine into a rejuvenating experience, showcasing the harmonious blend of functionality and luxury that defines the entire home. The outcome is a beautiful, sustainable living space that reflects the personalities and values of its inhabitants while embracing the natural beauty of its surroundings. Modern Craftsman is not just a house; it is a vibrant, living environment that nurtures both the family it houses and the planet it cherishes.
