The site, in a residential neighbor- hood on a hill overlooking Portland, also contributes to the privacy of the occupants since it is almost peninsular in shape as well as a cul-de-sac. Privacy is further promoted by individual, special entrances to the house: in addition to the main entrance door, there are doorways opening directly to the kitchen- laundry, the storage work room, the private guest wing, and from the carport to courtyard.
149 PORTLAND, OREGON, continued PIETRO BELLUSCHI, ARCHI...TECT According to architect Pietro Belluschi "the plan ex- emplifies what is known as an open or free-flowing plan, with the courtyard used as a landscape acces- sory to the house. " The skill with which he has accom- plished the merging of one space with another, while at the same time achieving a sense of seclusion for each, is readily apparent in the plan above and the photographs on the opposite page. The study and master bedroom suite are separated from the living room only by a massive fireplace wall, the kitchen by a brick partition which houses a barbecue and set-in cooking unit.
