This peaceful Lake Oswego home gets a stunning wabi-sabi makeover

PHOTOGRAPHER Luke and Mallory Leasure

Embracing minimalism and wabi-sabi sensibilities, this peaceful home was reimagined by Ment Architecture together with Grayhaus Interiors, nestled amongst towering Douglas firs with views of Oswego Lake, Oregon.

The project team sought to create a 2,700-square-foot residence that felt both expansive and intimate with an intentional connection to the outdoors and an emphasis on employing natural materials.

The house was taken down to the studs, reconfigured, and endured an all-electric energy retrofit with a backup power generation system that can withstand the test of time.

The living area on the main level features double-height ceilings with floor-to-ceiling windows that direct the eye outward, drawing tranquility and the lake and leafy surroundings into the home.
