With the publication of Oregon Made, Restore Oregon assembled a decade of home tour highlights all in one place, including in-depth descriptions of more than twenty homes designed by renowned architects such as Pietro Belluschi, John Yeon, Robert Rummer, Saul Zaik, John Storrs and more!
Chock full of interior and exterior photos (both period and contemporary), insightful commentary about this beloved regional architectural style, and a forward by Anthony and Marti Belluschi, this book was conceived as the ideal primer for anyone eager to learn how a worldwide design movement was adapted to function in harmony with the unique climate, landscape and indigenous materials of the Pacific Northwest.
Now in its second printing, this fully updated edition features over two dozen new photographs of seven striking mid-century homes, including works by noted Pacific Northwest architects Richard Campbell and Joachim Grube.
