Completed in 2003, this penthouse loft demonstrates what an endlessly creative interior designer, and a tenacious and brave cabinet make can accomplish and an enthusiastic owner who was willing to push the limits of artistic license can accomplish. Barbara Goetze Interior Design from Portland, Oregon was the visionary interior designer and artistic director on the project. Steve Dachsel Construction acted as general contractor.
Brilliantly stained cabinetry and woodwork, as well as many locally handmade glass, steel, stone, tile and wood elements deftly were fused to create a daring composition in a remodeled loft in a Portland Pearl District condo building that was initially built in the 1900’s as Portland’s first confectionery production plant. Panelized and built-in appliances, specialized stone and tile installation and a serpentine overhead lighting system serve to provide endless examples of customization and organization.
