Since 1991, Blue Canyon Design Group has helped Oregon homeowners and builders create thoughtful residential plans. Our background as builders gives us a practical understanding of how a design will translate into construction.

We begin by listening to your priorities and considering your property’s features, including slope, views, setbacks, and utility access. From there, we develop plans that bring together the curb appeal and interior features you want with practical construction details and hidden costs in mind.

Our goal is to make the design process relaxed and thoughtful while helping you move toward a home that works for the way you live.

Our Unique Advantages:

Our team members have worked as builders themselves. This isn't theoretical knowledge—it's real-world experience that translates into designs that contractors appreciate, budgets that work, and homes that are truly buildable. We understand construction costs, material efficiency, and local challenges because we've built homes in Oregon.

We specialize in local building code expertise. Every plan we create is designed specifically for Oregon's requirements and your local jurisdiction's submittal standards. This means your plans pass inspection the first time, eliminating frustrating delays and costly revisions.

We evaluate your site thoroughly before beginning design work. Whether it's terrain, views, drainage, or solar orientation, we assess how to maximize your property's potential. This site-specific approach creates designs that work with your land, not against it.

Our buildable designs save money during construction. By combining beautiful aesthetics with practical construction methods, we help you achieve your dream home without breaking your budget. Our clients consistently report saving thousands compared to designs from firms without construction experience.

I have been doing business with Blue Canyon for 13 years. They are always very helpful with design ideas as well as getting back to us quickly when we need their help. Since the owner used to also build houses, their designs are easy for contractors and subcontractors to follow. They have designed new homes, additions, and remodels for us. I would recommend them to any homeowner or contractor looking for a great home design company!

I can not say enough good things about Steve at Blue Canyon Design Group. He designed the plans for my 2 story shop and studio. From the get go, he had valuable insight as to what we could build. He worked with my ideas and made them into reality. His final plans were completely above my expectations. And, in the process of submitting plans to the city, we had a few hurdles, and Steve was on top of it with all revisions while being very patient with the city. I highly recommend Steve, and Blue Canyon Design Group.

Working with Blue Canyon was an invaluable experience for me and my family. This was the first remodel project my wife and I ever attempted, so we came in with no experience and lots and lots of questions. Steve was very patient with us and took plenty of time to explain every part of the process and all of the little details that we had questions about. There was even one meeting at the office where we had to bring our two-year-old toddler because our childcare fell through and he rolled with it without any issues. Now that our project is complete, we realize how wonderful it is to live in a well designed space. All of the frustrations we had with the previous layout of the home were fixed and we love all the thoughtful touches Steve suggested from his vast experience. During the build we encountered no issues with the plans, permitting, or the builders understanding the design. It could not have gone better for us. Thank you Steve and everyone else at Blue Canyon who helped our house become our home.
