Bright Designlab transformed this 1912 Craftsman home in Portland’s Ladd’s Addition by rethinking its layout and character. The kitchen now anchors the home, replacing the former living room to improve flow and functionality. Delicate design touches, arched niches, soft tones and floral motifs, contrast the sturdy architecture. Original details like leaded glass and built-ins were preserved while custom elements add charm and practicality. The result is a graceful, modern update that honours the home’s historic soul.
