A number of years in the past, Isabel and David Yahng had a daily weekend routine. “We’d try a espresso store and go to some open homes,” remembers Isabel. She’s initially from Lengthy Island, New York, he grew up in Hong Kong, and so they moved to Portland, Oregon, in 2017. It was by their weekly excursions that they discovered about Pacific Northwest modernism and the wealth of midcentury properties designed by notable native architects all through town. “Anytime a midcentury home would come up on the market, we’d go test it out. We’d go hearken to talks at Restore Oregon, and go on excursions that includes midcentury architects,” says Isabel. “I feel we obtained somewhat addicted.”
