THE SELF PROCLAIMED GEEK

THE QUEEN BEE

THE IDEA GUY

To me, architecture is more about the people than

the objects-those we work alongside and those

whose lives are impacted through our buildings’

design. That’s what inspires me–being invested in

what our design actually does for the people that

interact with it daily.

I love what Lenity Architecture is all about–our team,

our clients and the dedication we have towards

building lasting relationships. What fortifies those

relationships is the genuine caring we share for each

other and the people who enter the walls we help build.

The service we provide to our clients is meaningful,

important work and I’m honored to have a role in that.

I learned early on from some of the most influential

architects and builders in the industry that integrity

was a byproduct of genuine caring. I still live and

breath those values today. Walking into a building

we’ve designed and seeing the smiling faces of people

enjoying the space–those are the moments that make

me passionate about what I do.

Grocery Retail, Commercial ArchitectureCHUCK’S PRODUCE

COMPLETED IN AUGUST OF 2013, THE SALMON

CREEK CHUCK’S PRODUCE IS VANCOUVER’S SECOND

STORE LOCATION.

It is one of the first buildings built to the Highway 99

overlay standards for Clark County and serves as a catalyst

for future improvements to the area.

As a finalist for the 2014 DJC TopProjects Awards, the

Chuck’s Produce renovation satisfies the goal of creating

an active, pedestrian-oriented corridor with retail

shopping facing Highway 99. To enhance the overall

appearance of the building while providing a more

human scale to the exterior along the highway, dining

area roofs have been stepped down which in turn creates

more intimate interior spaces. The exterior design is

based on a country barn distilled to its most basic form. As

expressed in the overall vaulted forms, detailing and stage

set features, the interior is an eclectic fusion of country

barn, contemporary craftsman and retro with timber

framing throughout. Together, these design elements

signal fresh, organic and wholesome– qualities that speak

directly to Chuck’s discerning and ingredient conscious

shoppers. Energy efficient appliances and heating and

cooling practices are part of the long term plan to control

energy consumption in Chuck’s Produce stores. Features

such as the daylight harvesting skylights and lighting

control system contribute to the store’s energy efficiency

while complimenting the street market theme with the

use of natural light.

store, acting as a gateway to the seated area and courtyard.

The building and tower element step up towards the

main gable on the grocery store and together they form a

frontage for that entry of the mall. The roof form is slightly

concave, and the intersection with the tower element

was challenging. Extensive coordination and detailed

computer modeling was used to accurately describe the

structure for the builders.

THE 20,000 SF NEW HOME OF THE OREGON

DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES UNDERWENT

A COMPLETE TRANSFORMATION IN ONLY 72 DAYS

THANKS TO THE HARD WORK OF A UNIFIED TEAM.

Oregon Department of Human Services had previously

been used as a computer wafer manufacturing facility

and the improvements needed to bring the building up to

code were significant. The renovation included removal

of massive equipment, hazardous waste (60 tons of steel

from the roof alone), a facelift of the entire building, new

offices and bathrooms, seismic upgrades, new exterior

canopies, a new parking lot, site lighting and landscaping.

The project cost was $2.8 million and would have taken

five months under a normal schedule–but in this case,

Lenity Architecture and the building team only had a

few months to complete the project from start to finish.

Lenity Architecture’s strong relationship with the City of

Salem and an expedited permitting process helped put

the project on the fast track. Full service efficiency, strong

communication and good old-fashioned hard work

between the design and building teams enabled Lenity

Architecture to exceed timeline expectations. Thanks

to a team effort between Lenity Architecture, the City

of Salem, and White Oak Construction, doors opened

15 days ahead of schedule and a mere 72 days from the

project’s start date.

LENITY ARCHITECTURE HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF

HELPING MOR FURNITURE, THE WEST COAST’S LARGEST

FAMILY OWNED FURNITURE STORE, GROW THEIR

PRESENCE IN SALEM, OREGON WITH THE COMMERCIAL

REMODEL OF AN EXISTING RETAIL BUILDING.

MOR Furniture sought out a building that would lend itself

to existing prototypical architectural design elements

within a conservative remodel

budget. They identified a 25,000

SF retail space in a highly visible

location on Market Street. The

primary design objective was

to implement an established

architectural look and feel–and

in the process, breath life into a

dated 1970’s building.

Lenity Architecture focused

on the exterior of the building

while MOR’s interior design team extended the look

and feel of the brand throughout the store. The remodel

included the addition of two new entry marquees and a

large architectural cornice detail to conceal lighting and

add visual interest. A new paint scheme and prototypical

architectural details were also incorporated as well as

landscaping elements and ADA approved parking.

The project was on the fast track and construction began

in mid November after permits were pulled in only

10 short days. Working closely with MOR Furniture’s

construction team, Lenity Architecture was able to help

MOR open their doors to the public by their goal of the

first of the new year.

LENITY ARCHITECTURE WORKED WITH GENERAL

CONTRACTOR R&H CONSTRUCTION ON A WHOLE-

SALE REMODEL IN SUNRIVER, OREGON TO MAKE

WAY FOR THE SUNRIVER BREWING COMPANY’S

PRODUCTION FACILITY.

The remodel included ripping up the concrete slab to

accommodate trench drains, installing new mechanical

and plumbing systems, and adding offices and a

conference room. The building can also accommodate

future plans for the addition of a tasting room and kitchen

area, but for now the main focus is on rolling out new

beer. As a first step, brews were concocted off-site but

co-owner Brian Cameron said the bigger vision called

for a proprietary production system which has come to

fruition via the 12,500 SF revamped commercial building

in Sunriver Business Park, to service both the pub and an

expectant wider beer-loving market.

THE HAMPTON INN IN VANCOUVER, WASHINGTON

IS A SOPHISTICATED AND MODERN LUXURY HOTEL

APPEALING TO THE BUSINESS CLASS TRAVELER.

This four storied, 99 room hotel features an indoor

swimming pool and other conveniences appealing to the

health conscious traveler.

As a Hilton franchised property the corporate design

guidelines were strict, although Lenity Architecture

was given a high level of

creative liberty throughout

the process. Through close

collaboration with the client,

franchiser and the architectural

team, the end result reflected

a harmonious blend of Hilton’s

corporate brand standards and

Lenity’s unique perspective.

Lenity Architecture’s vision for the Hampton Inn and

every project we partner on is to provide a seamless

planning design and building experience for our clients.

For the Hampton Inn, that meant integrating our design

with existing corporate requirements and communicat-

ing through every step of the process.

Salem, OR

Community Center, Commercial ArchitectureCOMMUNITY ACTION AGENCY


THE COMMUNITY ACTION AGENCY WORKS WITH

PARTNER AGENCIES, LOCAL LEADERS AND GOVERN-

MENT OFFICIALS TO IDENTIFY COMMUNITY NEEDS AND

DIRECT RESOURCES WHERE THE NEED IS GREATEST.

The agency is a crucial hub of resources to help prevent

and alleviate the effects of poverty in Marion and Polk

Counties. Lenity Architecture worked alongside the

Community Action Agency to remodel the 17,000 SF

exterior and interior remodel of their 70 year old building.

The multitude of issues encountered during demo and

construction had to be addressed and any problems solved

quickly so as not to interrupt the agency’s invaluable

service to local families.

The objective was to leverage the building’s existing

design elements while making the offices appear newly

built. Existing flying roof lines helped drive the new

design elements. New roof lines were added to bring

balance to the overall design. A new exterior skin of

cement board siding and stone work with exposed

timber accents give the building a modern design with

a Northwest theme. While staying within the original

building’s footprint, the interior of the building was also

reconfigured to allow for more meeting space.

“The remodel is saving us $10K

annually in utilities including

water, electrical and gas. We’re

not paying for the building

anymore–we’re reinvesting in

client services and it’s a direct

result of the building being

greener.” Cyndi Astley, CAA

Deputy Director.

Sunriver, OR

Resort Retail Center, Commercial ArchitectureTHE VILLAGE AT SUNRIVER

THE REMODEL OF THE VILLAGE AT SUNRIVER

RESTORED WHAT HAS LONG BEEN CONSIDERED

A SIGNIFICANT AND MEANINGFUL PIECE OF

SUNRIVER’S HISTORY.

The resort community of Sunriver and the original

Sunriver Mall was established

in the late 1960’s. Sadly, the

Sunriver Mall had fallen into

disrepair over the years and was

not living up to its potential as a

shopping and recreational hub

for the Sunriver community.

The objective of the renovation

was, in short, to return the Village

at Sunriver to its original status

as the hub of the community

through timeless design and functionality. The goals

were to capture the essence of Central Oregon, address

problematic way finding and safety issues, maximize

visibility for retailers and create energy filled spaces that

visitors want to spend time enjoying.

In the 1960’s and 70’s, the resort community of Sunriver

was a trend setter in the way of environmentally conscious

design and building. In keeping with this original

vision and honoring the community’s environmentally

conscious values, Lenity Architecture’s plan for The

Village at Sunriver was to leave a small development

footprint. Tree conservation and green building practices

were implemented whenever possible. To compliment the

natural environment, the design of The Village is based

on the concept of a modern lodge aesthetic with simple

forms and natural materials. Cobbles, shingles, and real

stone were used throughout the property and compliment

THE VILLAGE AT SUNRIVER (CONTINUED)

the colors and textures of the natural environment.

The first phase of The Village at Sunriver renovation

included seven remodeled buildings and three new

buildings. The renovation included 48,000 SF of exterior

remodel, 26,000 SF of new building design, and 22,000

SF of tenant improvements ranging from restaurants,

office and retail space. The overall site is 16 acres and the

designed master planned portion of the site to date is 8

acres. New individual buildings include The Village Bar

& Grill, Sunriver Brewhouse, Brewed Awakenings and

two retail/office buildings–one with a tower feature and

sundial monument signage.

The new buildings create a central walking boulevard

with space for recreation and relaxation. In addition, a

central courtyard acts as another outdoor activity area

with play rocks anchoring the space both visually and

functionally. Trees in the courtyard were preserved with

seating walls that allow parents to relax and observe their

children at play. The new building designs give The

Village at Sunriver distinct frontage with notable entry

and exit points. We also conducted a thorough vehicular/

bike/pedestrian analysis and moved the main entry a

safer distance from the intersection and reconfigured bike

paths for safety.

As a result of meeting the objectives we set out to

accomplish, The Village at Sunriver was a finalist for the

2014 DJC TopProjects Awards. But more importantly, the

effect on the community has meant a significant increase

in tenant occupancy, foot traffic and retail revenues,

employment and a renewed sense of ownership in the

original hub of Sunriver.
