WE ARE...
We are a full-service team of designers who love crafting dynamic, warm & contemporary spaces that fit within their communities & budgets. By using locally-sourced materials in new ways, we are able to design buildings and spaces that appeal to forward-thinking clients wanting to live a more sustainable, healthy and beautiful life here in the Pacific Northwest.
Our decades of experience are put to task daily designing high-performance buildings and remodels that fit their specific site and their clients’ dreams. We cut thru the greenwashing to help our clients build a brighter future through truly sustainable building practices.

Scott Kosmecki specializes in bringing high-performance building projects to market. A designer, builder and building science advocate, Scott focuses on designing beautiful homes and spaces to today's highest standards while incorporating foam-free building techniques with locally sourced materials.
Scott is an Associate Architect and AIA member since 2009 and has been on the regional board of Passive House Northwest as well as deeply involved in Portland's We Dream of Zero organization and the national Passive House Alliance U.S.. He has created webinars, seminars and lectured on various high-performance building topics regionally and locally. With a deep background in architectural design, construction and high-performance and natural building techniques, Scott consults with other architects and builders regularly about how to "green" their projects but keep their budgets in line.
When not designing or building Scott loves to make use of his background in fine art, sculpting and creating furniture. These days free time is spent with his daughter and riding electric motorcycles to foody events with friends & family.
