12th Avenue

Portland, Oregon

Project
Located in Portland, Oregon, this multifamily project was conceived as workforce housing and shaped by the convergence of multiple zoning designations that informed the building’s setbacks and overall massing. The resulting composition transforms site constraints into an architectural opportunity, producing a refined form that is both responsive to context and clear in its expression.

The design presents a strong urban presence through a disciplined façade composition, durable material palette, and carefully integrated balconies that animate the exterior while enhancing residential livability. Light-filled units, a pedestrian-oriented street edge, and a thoughtful relationship to the surrounding neighborhood contribute to a project that balances density, functionality, and long-term value. The architecture reflects a commitment to practical elegance, neighborhood compatibility, and enduring quality.
