The new staircase was installed next to old windows on the east wall, and ascends to a light-filled hall above.
The living room is bright and airy thanks to floor-to-ceiling glazing and a crisp white wall.
A gas space heater provides zoned heating in the extension; recycled deco double doors can be closed to contain heat in the lounge.
A white beamed ceiling adds structure to the open and airy living space bookended by immersive views of nature.
A wooden chair and fiddle leaf fern are calming accents in the sleeping area.
At a 1954 midcentury home in the West hills of Portland, Penny Black Interiors deftly updated the residence with standout cabinetry, carefully-selected tile, and wallpaper galore. The renovation balanced preserving the home's innate character and updating its function for modern life.
The kitchen island also features a spacious, stylish hub for entertaining.
In the family room, "short ribbon windows were replaced with a wall of glass" for indoor/outdoor flow.
