DeForest Architects have designed a new house in Bend, Oregon, for their clients, an interior designer and her partner, as a place to getaway, recharge, and relax.
The exterior of the house has custom stained cedar siding that helps to blend the house in with the varied textures and subtle colors of the desert

At the entry courtyard, a rolling screen and swinging gate can be configured to be cozy and private, or wide open and welcoming.

Stepping inside, there’s an entryway with reclaimed white oak engineered flooring, that’s also been used throughout the house.

In the living room, there’s more stained cedar that’s been milled to a custom profile. The wood accent wall surrounds a black fireplace, while a light colored couch, high ceilings and plenty of windows help to keep the interior bright.

Behind the living room is the kitchen that has a white lacquer finish, with a glossy tropical white glass tile backsplash. The design of the kitchen island includes an overhang to allow for seating.

In the dining room, Aplomb pendants lights, designed by Paolo Lucidi and Luca Pevere, hang above a wood dining table crafted from 18th-century floorboards, that’s surrounded by Anziano Chairs by Donghia.

Outside, there’s a patio made from large format precast concrete pavers, that allows for views of snowcapped peaks and the Deschutes National Forest.

In the master bathroom, a skylight helps to keep the glass enclosed shower bright, while a dark vanity ties in with the rest of the dark wood used throughout the home.
