THE Arleta was a fun design that was inspired from the pages of Radford's Artisitic Bungalows

. We tried to stay true to the original design while making sure to adhere to a more modern formula. We are still scratching our heads at how we fit so much into a space of less than 1400sf. The design deities have smiled upon us!

At only 28 feet wide, the house will easily fit on a narrow infill lot. The open porch and low roof give the house an immediate inviting and cozy feel. We took some 1910's design liberties on the 'A' and dolled her up. For a more craftsman look, see the original.

Inside, we have kept the classic vestibule and framed it with a couple of pillars. On the other end of the house we took the classic icebox service entry and turned it into a true mudroom.
While we have been fairly anti-hallway in public circles, we found that we couldn't do without it here. The original plan allowed the bedrooms and bathroom (singular) to open right out to the common rooms. Modern design parlance requires a little more privacy. Were you to want to bump privacy up to the realm of secrecy, you could completely hide the hallway. The opening at the parlor could be covered completely or have a secret panel built into the woodwork. The kitchen could have a sliding or swinging shelf at its opening. This turns the entire right side of the house into a saferoom!

This plan is unique in that we have included space for a furnace should you choose to install one. The ceiling in the hallway could be sheathed and then subframed to 8'. This space then becomes perfect for running all your duct runs within conditioned space. All rooms can be touched. And if you built the house right your registers should have no need to reach to the windows. What an archaic practice! Similarly subframe the two immediate closets and put your return towards the parlor or dining room.

All plans include four elevations, floor plans, foundation plans, at least two building sections, framing plans for the second floor and/or roof, and notes and construction details. This is everything you will need to build, but may not be everything you need to get a permit. Check with your local jurisdiction. Electrical layouts, cabinet elevations and engineering are not included.

At only 28 feet wide, the house will easily fit on a narrow infill lot. The open porch and low roof give the house an immediate inviting and cozy feel. We highly recommend gridded windows to complete the look. Or if you like a true bungalow look, see the 'A' version.

IT WAS a dark and stormy night. Two shots rang out. A woman screamed. The butler did it. Of course it was the butler. It's always the butler. So maybe The Multnomah doesn't remind you of a Sherlock Holmes novel, but we think you will still find it intriguing. You could choose to live just in the coziness of 1137 square feet downstairs or take advantage of all 4 bedrooms in the well organized 1900 square feet. This mystery is also available in paperback and large-print editions.

Through the front door a formal entry awaits you. There is a coat closet under the stairs, but we think it would be too cool if you installed a secret bookcase door instead. Perhaps there should be stairs going down a torch-lit stairway to some sort of Frankenstein like dungeon laboratory. Or the pocket doors that lead into the hallway could be paneled to match the walls, closing it off to all but the priveleged. This would certainly allow more privacy in the bed and bath. For those not in the know, step into the parlor with faux exposed beam ceiling and sit in front of the fireplace a while. The built in bookcases on either side might have a secret lever disguised as a book. Or not?

The parlor flows into the dining room through a half wall and tapered columns. In there lay a built in bench for extra seating. And of course the seat should open for storage. Opposite, the built in hutch is flanked on one side by one of those pocket doors that should match the paneling. And we can't help but imagine a painting on the other side. We're thinking a portrait with the eye holes cut out...

Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom well laid out. A loft at the top of the stairs could function as a study area, a play area, or a crime scene investigation. The hall linen closet has been aligned right over the utility room downstairs. We highly recommend a laundry chute to quickly get rid of all your... laundry...

If you happen to be concerned about the number of toilets upstairs, we include an alternate layout showing a small additional water closet at the top of the stairs. We certainly don't mean to rush anyone through their morning rituals.

The upper floor has all been laid out based on attic style trusses. We have provided multiple bearing lines downstairs which should be entirely adequate should you choose to stick frame instead. The great thing about stick framing is that it would give you so much more versatility in storage space and secret nooks and crannies.

AH, Dear Portland. From rivers to mountains to bridges to Zoobombers, your presence has been immortalized. On television. Where the mantra "Keep Portland Weird" is sung proudly from atop statues. That overlook foodcarts. Where corrupt politicians are the norm since 1850. And are celebrated. But at least it's not Seattle. Portland's drier.

In a city where weirdness is celebrated, what happens to the "normal". As weirdness grows, normal gets smaller. At some point, the weirdness becomes normal and the norm becomes weird. So the pendulum either swings the other way or the trend wraps itself into a wormhole that spits you back out where you started. The Portland plan is kind of like that. Not a wormhole, mind you, more like the ever moving dividing line between normal and weird.

The City of Portland allows for a particular type of single family lot in a particular type of situation to be created as small as 36' wide and 50' deep. Technically 45' wide and 40' deep is also allowed but much less common. Since infill is a preference of the city council, we decided that it would be a good idea to have a plan in our back pocket to fill this niche. There was an agonizing push-pull between fitting a mold and classic styling. We probably hit it that day but who knows where the line has gone since then.

In this version we've embraced a basement option for front sloping lots. The garage has been moved thither and an accessory dwelling unit with it. Now the hipster and has girlfriend can have their own space instead of living in your third bedroom. The freedom of no garage on the living level opens that space up for more luxurious living, including a deck out front.

The upper floor maintains the same elements as the other Portlands but with a different arrangement. The master is light and bright with windows on three sides. And with a commanding view of the street you'll feel like a king in your timber castle.

The main floor is a little bit contorted to be able to fit the expected great room and an unheated storage space. A little hip check in the dining room opens some space. That funny notch in the back helps conformance with another policy. All single family homes must have a 12x12 outdoor space that is not in the front yard. This is perfect because now the front yard can be used for raising chickens.

Upstairs are a surprisingly spacious 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Of course the inner neighborhoods will utilize it as a bedroom, an art room, and a rental space for a hipster. But the options are even greater than that. Should you choose to use bonus room trusses, you could gain an extra 350 square foot game room above this horde. That space has been made big enough for 2 more bedrooms. Now we're talking college housing, baby!
