Brent Linden and Chris Brown discuss the origins and philosophy of their craft-based firm and its focus on intimate partnerships. They describe the details behind some of their recent projects, including the Sequitur Wine project in Chehalem Valley, as well as the construction of the Gradient House in Portland, Ore.’s St. Johns neighborhood on the edge of the Willamette River.  Linden and Brown, whose firm is up for Architectural Record Digest’s Vanguard Award, explain the thrill of infectious optimism and the resonance that happens when architects make room for other voices.

Gradient transforms a postwar house in the St. Johns neighborhood of Portland into a timely and sophisticated live work campus. United by a shared roof and material palette, the house and studio frame a courtyard that overlooks the iconic St. Johns Bridge, the Willamette River, and West Hills. Home to a young family with a thriving design business, the Gradient provides a true live/work balance, with strong connections to neighbors and the landscape, following the natural topography of the site. Though the new house and studio more than double the size of the original house, the scale of the surrounding neighborhood is maintained.
