To be usual with extreme life, the owners of this house want to blur the boundary between pleasure and pain, work and play. Located in inner southeast Portland, the owners want an easy biking distance of their downtown office. They also want the tallest buildings as view yet loving of nature is not abandoned. PATH Architecture has designed their dream comes true. This house accommodates the dweller’s need well. Sustainability and energy efficiency are designed carefully, featured by a super air tight envelope, radiant heat, heat recovery, high performance glass, FSC certified wood throughout, green roof, permeable paving and passive heating and cooling strategies.
