Fountain Plaza Condominium

Condo renovations come with constraints most projects don't. Aforma developed coordinated documentation for Fountain Plaza that clearly defined proposed changes, kept everything within building requirements, and gave reviewers what they needed to approve the work without back-and-forth.

Kings Heights Residence

Before renovation work could begin on the Kings Heights Residence, the team needed a reliable picture of what was actually there. Aforma developed accurate as-built models and base drawings from real site conditions, giving the design and construction teams a verified foundation to work from before any major decisions were made.

Mid-Century Modern

Healy Heights Residence

The Healy Heights Residence was designed in 1941 by Van Evera Bailey, one of Portland's notable examples of early modern residential design. Aforma supported the renovation and expansion through BIM modeling and documentation, helping preserve the original structure's proportions while integrating new spaces that feel like they belong.

Meriwether Penthouse

The Meriwether Penthouse had one of Portland's best views over the Willamette River and Mt. Hood. The interior just wasn't built to take advantage of it. Aforma reworked the floor plan, improved flow between living spaces, and brought in warm natural materials that match the setting without overpowering it.

Matilija Drive Residence

The Matilija Drive Residence started with a fragmented layout that no longer fit how the clients lived. Aforma supported the schematic redesign by developing coordinated plans that opened up key living areas, improved circulation, and set a clear, buildable direction for the full renovation ahead.

Forest Heights Residence

The Forest Heights Residence had the right spaces, just not in the right order. Aforma reorganized the layout to separate private and public zones, simplify circulation, and pull the kitchen, dining, and living areas toward the deck and outdoor views.

West Hills ADU

Building an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) on a sloped West Hills lot meant working within tight coverage limits, setback requirements, and hillside structural conditions. Aforma coordinated the drawings and models to verify compliance early, resolve site constraints before permitting, and deliver documentation the contractor could actually build from.

Eliot Tower Residence

At 13 floors up with panoramic Portland views, the Eliot Tower residence needed an interior that complemented its surroundings rather than competed with them. Aforma coordinated the documentation for custom millwork, material transitions, and built-in elements, making sure every detail translated cleanly from design to construction.

Fairmount Loop Residence

The Fairmount Loop Residence had been standing since 1928 with the rooflines, proportions, and character to prove it. Aforma coordinated the renovation and 1,300 SF addition across existing and new conditions, preserving the home's Dutch Colonial identity while upgrading the foundation, systems, and structure underneath it.
