Kitchen Remodel - 1950s Milwaukie Home
This Milwaukie, Oregon kitchen remodel transformed a closed-off 1950s kitchen into a bright, open, and inviting gathering space designed for modern living. The project included full demolition, removal of a load-bearing wall to create an open-concept layout, installation of custom cabinetry, tile backsplash, new electrical and plumbing systems, appliance installation, painting, and finish carpentry throughout. A handcrafted live-edge slab counter now connects the kitchen to the family room, creating a warm and functional entertaining space. To preserve the home's Pacific Northwest character, the structural beams were custom wrapped with locally sourced Central Oregon juniper, adding warmth, texture, and one-of-a-kind craftsmanship. This custom kitchen renovation blends natural materials, thoughtful design, and skilled woodworking to create a timeless kitchen remodel in Milwaukie that is both beautiful and highly functional.

SW Portland Bathroom Remodel | Bright, Functional, and Timeless Design
This SW Portland bathroom remodel transformed a dated space into a bright, modern retreat with custom details throughout. The project included a new walk-in tile shower with a recessed niche, floor tile installation, shiplap ceiling and wall accents, fresh interior paint, a new vanity, sink, mirror, and toilet. A reclaimed live-edge wood slab was incorporated into the shower wall, adding warmth and character to the contemporary design.

To enhance natural light and create a more open feel, the shower wall was lowered, improving sightlines and allowing sunlight to flow deeper into the room. The result is a spacious, functional bathroom that blends modern finishes with handcrafted Northwest charm.

Historic Portland Basement Remodel – Crafts Room & Bedroom Conversion
This historic SE Portland Foursquare basement was transformed into two functional living spaces: a dedicated crafts room and a comfortable bedroom. To create a warm, finished appearance while honoring the home's character, we installed horizontal shiplap on both the walls and ceiling, added recessed lighting, and completed detailed finish work throughout. The result is a bright, inviting basement remodel that maximizes usable square footage while blending seamlessly with the home's historic charm.

Reclaimed Shiplap Garage Makeover
For this custom garage restoration project in the historic Eastmoreland neighborhood of Portland, we transformed a typical unfinished 1920s two-car garage with exposed framing into a warm, functional space that feels original to the home. Using reclaimed and deconstructed shiplap salvaged from old Portland homes, we created custom walls, built-in shelving, a handcrafted workbench, and carefully detailed trim and switch plates designed to appear as though they had been there since the garage was built in the 1920s. Projects like this reflect our passion for historic home restoration, reclaimed wood craftsmanship, garage remodeling, and preserving the character and architectural integrity of Portland's older homes.
