Before & After: How a Portland Couple Took Their Midcentury Kitchen From Cramped to Chef’s Kiss
Risa Boyer Architecture (RBA) is seeking a talented and passionate Architectural Designer to join our team.
This month marked an important milestone for our studio as we celebrated 20 years of Risa Boyer Architecture with friends, family, collaborators, and clients at our anniversary open house.
What began as a mid-century remodel quickly turned into a full-fledged, high-performance residence combining the homeowners’ vision with the expertise of Risa Boyer Architecture and contractor Don Tankersley & Co.
The Hunter Residence featured in the Oregonian recently sold for $110,000 over the asking price; showcases RBA architecture attention to design detail and honoring the home’s mid-century modern roots.
Fun morning for our studio! Risa, along with fellow AIA Oregon committee member Jericho Bankston, stopped by KGW’s Hello Rose City to talk about the upcoming AIA Oregon Portland Homes Tour and why opening the doors to thoughtfully designed homes matters for our community.
2026 Block Party Design Event + Fundraiser hosted by MADE PDX and Design Within Reach—a celebration of design, craft, and community impact that brought together designers and makers in support of a meaningful cause.
Portland is home to a rich collection of mid-century modern residences that embraced open plans, natural materials, and a profound connection to the outdoors. Updating these homes for 21st-century living—without erasing their character—requires a sensitive, informed approach.
RBA Honored with a Merit Award from AIA Oregon
