History
After ten years of design work in the Los angeles area, I opened my business in Portland in 1992. With an extensive background in remodeling and graphic design, I was able to move those skills here in Portland. I have worked on design solutions for everything from branding, to adding an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) to support aging parents. The last year I have dedicated my work to helping people reach their goals of aging in place. With 10,000 Americans turning 65 every day, it is time to start thinking about the future. It is my hope that as many people as possible can stay in their homes for life. I have also joined the Villages NW Board of Directors to further my connection to this movement. Take control of your future, and think about how you want to live in the years to come. Zapata Design would like to help map out solutions, so your home will fit your short term - long term goals.
