The pioneering spirit of Marvin Witt's 1977 contemporary design meets the forward-thinking innovation of Jeff Kovel's Skylab Architecture here, at the end of a peaceful meandering street named Upper Cascade Drive, located in the heart of Portland's Arboretum nature preserve that is surprisingly just minutes from the hustle & bustle of the city center. Witt's original vision brought to life a home with ceilings that stretch towards the sky, vaults that break conventional forms, & windows that erase the boundary between indoor & outdoor spaces. Skylab's renovation elevates this vision, infusing the home with an abundance of natural light, sweeping views of the tree canopy, & a fluidity that continues the home's dynamic relationship with its natural surroundings where living begins inside & spills into the Arboretum & onto handcrafted Ipe decks. The full home renovation by the lovely & creative owners took the saying "details matters" deep throughout the structure including HVAC, plumbing & electrical overhaul. The daily routine of showering becomes a tranquil retreat in the reimagined primary bathroom. Even the historic elements that remain meet the avant-garde; the iconic Leroy Setziol front door remarkable as is, the oak parquet floors are reimagined with white stain, revealing a modern mosaic of wood grain & geometry that are stunning! In the bathrooms, custom dimensionally-folded tiles & Walker Zanger marble reflect the home's original angular leanings, while the concrete kitchen island & the sculptural white oak staircase, stand as modern accents where form & function move together.Skylab's reinterpretation works in concert with Witt's original blueprint, creating a home that is both a nod to the 70's & the perfect step into the current day-one of the city's best demonstrations of the transformative power of design when it dialogues with time.Architectural legacies can be both preserved & evolved while creating the most beautiful living experience! Case in point! [Home Energy Score = 1. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10225140]
