Oregon Home | 45 They could also feel good about the process Green Hammer uses to demolish older buildings like this, including funneling materials into creative reuse and Earth Advantage practices, a rigorous process used to limit the dispersal of dangerous chemicals during every phase of construction. “We knew Green Hammer from their Tillamook Row project,” Lauren says. “I really connect with what they do, especially on an aesthetic level, but they are also incredibly passionate about the tech involved.” The home the Yeisers built, while something of a standout on their street in terms of style, rises on two floors, creating a 1,700-square-foot, two-bedroom, two-bath home “rightsized” to maximize living area without having to overbuild for the neighborhood. The couple live on the top floor and have the bottom situated as an Accessory Dwelling Unit in the event they need to accommodate aging family members. “We get a really cozy, comfortable feeling by trying to limit the amount of space we need,” Kate says. Inside the home carries much of Lauren’s touch — which is aligned with the clean, functional and modern look of Green Hammer designs. “I’m an organizing nerd,” Lauren says. “Nothing is more beautiful to me than a well-organized drawer.”
