Iron Mountain

A house designed by architect Walter Gordon sits on a one-acre property south of Portland, Oregon.  The renovated garden is designed for retirement in place – beautiful, private, and accessible – and simple enough to gracefully and sustainably mature over time.

“The several thoughtfully placed views of the outdoor spaces entice those inside to extend their living spaces beyond the walls of the home…The outdoor areas were enhanced by the high-quality work of landscape architect Karen Ford whose style complements and joins well with the Walter Gordon aesthetic.”

“Whether the material is brick, stone, wood, or plants, her finished projects look like they should be no other way.”
