AMY TROUTE - Owner & Principal Designer
Amy believes that great design begins with listening, continues with clear communication and comes to life through true collaboration. With decades of experience, she specializes in guiding clients through the complexities of building, renovating or furnishing their homes – whether they’re just around the corner or across the country. Born with an intuitive eye for color, and an innate sense of scale, Amy pairs natural instinct with expertise, allowing her to get it right the first time and deliver spaces that feel effortlessly aligned with her client’s vision. Amy has assembled a talented team, and partnering with clients, builders and architects, encourages a collaborative environment where every detail is aligned, and every challenge is met. When she’s not immersed in a project, you’ll find Amy at her happiest with her daughters, Stella and Emily, exploring the world with her partner Fred, spending time with close friends, or out in nature - where pinecones on the ground and the sound of rushing water bring her a deep sense of peace.

ELAINE BOTHE - Architectural Designer
has spent more than 20 years pouring over plans, looking for ways to finish and improve the flow of any space from the grandest homes to the tiniest. She’ll make the most of any space and create thoughtful, comfortable rooms for living or working. This is the magic she brings to our clients. Bothe’s architecture and graphic design degrees, by way of business, engineering and computer science, make her a bit of a self-proclaimed “geek,” and give her the problem-solving skills to think things through thoroughly from the inside out. She delights in smoothing the flow of the most difficult or awkward places by visualizing how someone would use and truly enjoy their space. She’ll make the most of what’s there, and fill in what’s not. Bothe is also an avid mountain biker and cyclist, and enjoys exploring new trails from the Alps in Switzerland, France and Italy to instructing skills all over the Pacific Northwest and in Portland at the local indoor BMX bike park.
