Home Floor Plans

Floor Plan of Kado Kubu by Ham Design Group

Texture is at play everywhere, from a bathroom’s pebble-wash terrazzo floors that wrap up walls to the lush landscaping outside.

The home includes an upper-level swimming pool, which Kathryn and Keith enjoy with Indah and baby Mira.

Most of the furniture in the home are Cornuelle’s vintage finds.

Built in 1894, Cornuelle’s main house was one of the oldest in Portland, Oregon’s Woodlawn neighborhood.

The outdoor dining nook echoes the interior curves in the back corner of the garden. "Built-in seats just generally give you more space, basically,

"You can see that language is still there with the sort of two pitched roofs. There is another pitched roof behind that as well, which is the main extension at the back of the house, but you can't really see it from the street,

Now, soft white bagged brick and linear clarity unite the rear facade in a visually pleasing manner.

Like the kitchen benchtops, the vanity in the primary bathroom is made of quartize with veins that Litera likens to a "spider's web".

Peekaboo windows continue on the first floor, where an expansive, light-flooded primary bedroom connects to the elements under an angular pitched roof.

"One of the main problems with the house before was that you were a little isolated, it was hard to get out to the environment," says Gylfir. Doors and windows galore solve that problem in the renovated home.

The open-plan living-kitchen-dining area is a repository of design icons, both classic and contemporary. There’s a Louis Poulsen pendant lamp over the Eero Saarinen dining table; Mirror Ball pendants by Tom Dixon over the kitchen counter; and Tab F1 floor lamps from Flos behind the Edward Wormley–designed Dunbar sofa. In the living room, chairs modeled on Jens Risom’s swivel design enable people to face either the sofa or to spin 180 degrees toward the kitchen.

Continuous built-ins provide plentiful storage.

A large skylight looms above a Duravit tub and a Runtal Radia towel warmer in the en suite bathroom.

A freestanding Antonio Lupi tub defines the updated master bath, which also features an open-plan layout and a skylight by Velux.

A terracotta vanity expands across the full length of the bathroom.

The lofted space shag carpet was replaced with bouncy cream colored popcorn Berber Carpet to spark feelings of summer camp nostalgia.
