After moving from out of state, we had purchased a view lot in a newly developed gated community and driving through one weekend, we stopped and talked to a neighbor who was working in their yard about their beautiful home and they recommended that we call the designer and gave us the number to Summit Ridge. We had talked to two others designers beforehand but after meeting with all three, there was no question who we wanted to work with and we couldn't be happier. The design of our home not only fits our new northwest lifestyle but its entire design was created around us. Each room was carefully planned out and is a reflection of our lifestyle. Highly recommended. ### All 7 reviews **★★★★★ — Anlon, Dec. 2020** > As a custom home builder, who we partner with on the home design is one of the first big decisions we need to make. We have worked with Summit Ridge Design on multiple custom homes and have had nothing but great results. The communication between designer, client and builder is imperative to making sure that everyone is on the same page, and Summit Ridge Design is very good at this. Their ability to pull details out of clients and get so close to what they had in mind at first pass is exceptional. One of the other major benefits of working with Summit Ridge Design is the software they utilize, that no other designer in the area uses or has invested in. Being able to show the clients their plans not only in 2 dimensions but then switching immediately to a 3 dimensional model and actually seeing the home in real life makes it so much easier for the client to envision how their home look and how it will live. We have enjoyed a long relationship with Summit Ridge and look forward to continuing partnering with them in the future. **★★★★★ — Amber Rementeria, Oct. 2019** > Summit Ridge Design LLC delivers an exceptional home design experience from start to finish! They were tremendous to work with and we found them to be very professional, responsive, and organized. They are extremely creative with great aesthetic vision. I was simply amazed by the transformation of our home they provided! Their online collaborative tools really helped us see our vision come to life. We have used other architects, but Summit Ridge Design LLC truly offers a unique talent that needs to be taken advantage of! **★★★★★ — Judy Leach, Oct. 2019** > I had the pleasure of working with Summit Ridge Design on a large residential project for the past several months. I am very impressed with their professionalism and the quality of work they produced in a timely manner. It was absolutely wonderful to collaborate with a company that would listen to what our client wanted, what the builder thought, as well as myself (the interior designer). Architectural and design solutions were quickly produced the very few times we ran into any obstacles. Their presentation was always fantastic. I highly recommend them! **★★★★★ — Amy Troute Inspired Interior Design, June 2016** > The owner of Summit Ridge LLC, is a genuine person and exceptional architect. I've had the privilege of being the interior designer on several multi-million dollar custom homes he has designed, and the collaboration and shared passion for what we do has been extraordinary. His clients, designers and builders are greeted with an easy, approachable dimeanor, and he listens with creative attention to their every question and desire. He is truly interested in building the home that addresses his client's every priority, while keeping a trained eye on balance, scale and livability. **★★★★★ — 1ocpowers, April 2016** > We met the owner of Summit Ridge through our Real Estate Broker. He is a very fun, likable and professional designer/architect. His pricing structure was a flat rate based on square footage so there were no surprises. We really appreciated that he researched the county requirements and designed our home accordingly. When the plans were submitted to engineering and the county for permits they went through without any changes. He designed us a beautiful home. He was always available for questions and was very helpful with ideas in the design process. **★★★★★ — Ric Kimbell, April 2016** > We contracted with Summit Ridge to provide design and architectural services for a luxury home design in Lake Oswego. We worked very closely with the owner who spearheaded our project. He was always available, listened and understood our plans and desires and translated our design into exactly what we wanted. And this was done at a very reasonable price. Additionally, Wade worked closely with the city of Lake Oswego to ensure we met all code requirements. > > I enthusiastically and highly recommend Summit Ridge for any design and architectural needs you may have. We are thrilled with our project. ## Selected projects - [Tesoro Master Piece](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tesoro-master-piece-pj-vj~7800872) - Location: Boise, ID - Photos: 82 - [Modern Masterpiece in Boise.](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-masterpiece-in-boise-pj-vj~7658165) - Location: Boise, ID - Photos: 68 - [2023 Street of Dreams, Best of Show Award Winner](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/2023-street-of-dreams-best-of-show-award-winner-pj-vj~7268046) - Location: Sherwood, OR - Photos: 4 - Description: Voted Best of Show.

Quartz? Granite? Thank you A: Thanks for the question Teresa. The counter top's in this bathroom are quartz. **Q: House exterior photoshop suggestions need** *(in Design Dilemma)* My new house has such potential but needs some major curb appeal help to cute it up!!! ;-) Any ideas and suggestions are welcome and a photoshopped pic of your ideas would be a dream come true. My initial thought are new paint in the grey, blue or green family. Maybe one shade on top and another shade on the bottom? Shutters on the 1st story windows and a railing on the front porch. Its basically a blank slate right now but I just know it could be just lovely given the the right changes. Thanks in advance!!! A: I think shutters on double windows are just fine and in-fact are quite common on home designs like Sarah's. Sarah you have a great platform on which to build off of, it will just come down to what looks best for you and your budget. Hers another picture of similar design style to your home showing more brick, larger doric column on a brick/stone base and shutters on well trimmed double/triple windows, adding a little massing/balance to the front. **Q: Seeking architectural rendering service** *(in Design Dilemma)* We seek to retain someone with mad skills in architectural renderings. Someone who will help interpret our vision for the complete remodel and additions to our home and poolhouse. We have current blueprints and site pics we could share. It's over 3,300 SF total. Any recommendations?? Located on Big Island of Hawaii in the middle of a rainforest. A: @Nedrra, here are the pictures again. There not intended to match your project but rather to give you an idea to what we can do. We would include the interiors as well. See my houzz profile, then look at my projects page and you will find the Renderings. You can email me @ design@summitridgellc.net or see our Houzz profile and call at (503) 577-0737 **Q: Love the wall color...can you tell me the brand and color name?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: I wish we could share that with you, unfortunately it was custom mixed by the interior designer while standing at the paint counter. She had the granite counter top sample with her and started with a paint swatch that was close to what she needed, then had them add different drops of tinting until she had what she wanted. **Q: Love pendants where r they from? Thanks!** *(in Photo Questions)* A: They are in fact the Troy Lighting Maidstone line. Sourced thru Globe lighting. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-21.*
