G / S to take part in AIA Homes Tour!

The Van Adelsberg / Grant Residence will be featured on the Portland Architectural and Design Festival’s Home Tour taking place October 1st. The original, mid-70s contemporary, 1 bedroom house was designed by Edgar Waehrer. In keeping with the original spirit of the “house in the trees,” the new design adds 2 bedrooms, a home office and expands the interior spaces while retaining its original contemporary northwest form.

Entertaining Modern on the Lake Oswego Home Tour

The Lake Oswego Home tour was a great success this last weekend! One of the houses that we renovated was on the tour. The house was originally designed by Architect Saul Zaik. We added onto it while still keeping the original Architects design in mind. It was a great project to work on and we are excited that it made it on the tour!

The Lake Oswego Review also did a full article on the project which you can the article to the left. Or you can go to -http://www.lakeoswegoreview.com/features/story.php?story_id=130514288019915500

Happy Holidays!

We would like to wish all of you a wonderful Holiday Season from all of us at Giulietti/ Schouten Architects!

Sincerely,

Dave, Tim, Jeff and Jenny
