02 — THRESHOLD
Come in.
Every build starts with a conversation—usually at the same table where we sketch the first idea.
03 — KITCHEN
Materials with a memory.
Walnut, blackened steel, and hand-set concrete get better with years of dinners and everyday use.
04 — GREAT ROOM
Face the view.
We tune every overhang and opening for winter sun, summer shade, and the mountain you came here to see.
05 — PRIMARY SUITE
Quiet where it counts.
Morning light, useful storage, and rooms that feel settled long before the boxes are unpacked.
06 — DECK AT DUSK
Stay awhile.

Premium craft.
Personal scale.
We design and build four to six homes each year. That means you talk to the people drawing the details—and the people swinging the hammers.
Dale and Erin Marsten have worked side by side since 2009, pairing three decades of field knowledge with rigorous architectural design. Our eight-person crew knows Central Oregon’s snow, wind, fire, and remarkable light.

“We never wondered who owned the next decision. Erin drew it, Dale priced it, and the same crew built it exactly as discussed.”— Mara & Colin Vale, Tumalo Overlook homeowners · fictional testimonial
