New Home · North Plains, OR
A high-performance new home on a rural site. A tight envelope, exterior insulation, and durable materials make a home that will last.
We design high-performance new homes, remodels, and ADUs. We are based in Portland and our service area extends across Oregon and Washington.
A new home is a chance to get everything right, tailored to exactly how you want to live, your site, and your performance goals. We consider climate, views, natural light, and connections to the surroundings to create homes that feel like they belong. Our background in both design and construction results in refined, practical, and buildable designs.

We solve the problems that keep you from fully enjoying your home, while maintaining the character that keeps you there. Remodels are an opportunity to improve comfort, performance, and durability.

We are a residential practice in Portland, Oregon, focused on remodels, additions, ADUs, and new homes. We design spaces that fit how you live, detail them to last, and work to advance each project toward sustainability. Asmund Tweto founded the practice in 2017 and works directly with each client from first conversation through construction.
"Asmund has a deep understanding of the built environment and how to make small spaces really work. We appreciated his attention to detail and hands-on approach through the life of the project, including throughout construction."Charlie, ADU Client
A successful project depends on a great process: careful listening, clear communication, and respect for the project team.
Each project starts with careful listening in order to fully understand your goals, project site or existing home, and budget. We also survey the regulations that affect your project so we know what is possible early.
From programming through construction documents, we have formed a streamlined design process that is flexible, invites feedback, defines decisions, and clearly shows you what your space will look and feel like.
We will work with your jurisdiction to secure necessary land use approvals, building permits, and other jurisdictional reviews. The thorough documentation we provide streamlines the permitting process.
We offer construction guidance and supervision; we can guide bidding and contractor selection and provide supervision during construction to ensure the project is proceeding as designed.
We usually start with a conversation to see if it's the right fit. If it seems right, we'll arrange a visit to your home or property to learn more.
