Plan Your Portland Home Remodel

Most remodeling companies manage a construction project. We design a home.

That distinction — between a firm that coordinates trades and one that designs spaces — is the single biggest factor in how your remodel will look, function, and feel in ten years. Join Lamont Bros. Founding Principal Joseph Patrick for a workshop built around the design thinking behind exceptional remodels: how spatial planning, light, proportion, and materiality separate a good renovation from an architecturally considered one.

This isn't a sales pitch. It's a working session in how designers actually think.

You'll learn:

• How circulation and sightlines determine whether an open floor plan actually works — or just looks open in photos
• Why ceiling height, window placement, and natural light study matter more than finish selections
• The anatomy of a well-composed kitchen: proportion, material hierarchy, and how the eye moves through a space
• How to evaluate a floor plan the way a designer does — before a single wall comes down
• What separates a firm with real design authorship from one assembling a Pinterest board and a subcontractor list

Whether you're a year out or just starting to explore, you'll leave able to evaluate any remodeling proposal — including ours — with a designer's eye.
