Angie Amato Wieland
OWNER, ARCHITECT
Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, Angie Amato Wieland is proud to live in the Pacific Northwest and contribute to the built environment of her hometown. Angie prides herself on her relationships with her clients, listening and responding to their wants and needs and incorporating them into their homes. Angie's inspiration comes from her everyday life, education, and appreciation for the world around her, from large landscapes down to minute details. Thoughtful, timeless design should be accessible to everyone, and Angie's broad range of projects reflects this ideal.
Angie's residential work ranges from new construction of single family and vacation homes to remodels and additions to existing homes. Angie specializes in creating spaces that meet the needs of a modern lifestyle while complementing the appropriate style and character of the house. Through the hands-on learning of remodeling her own 1920s era house, Angie understands the complexities of working on existing homes.
Angie earned a 4-year Presidential Scholarship to the University of Oregon where she graduated cum laude with a Bachelor of Architecture degree in 1997. She studied abroad in Rome, Italy during the summer of 1996, followed by two months of travel throughout Europe. Upon graduation, Angie moved back to her hometown of Portland, Oregon, where she has remained. From 1997-2006, Angie worked for local architecture firms focusing primarily on PK-12 education buildings. Angie earned her license to practice architecture in the State of Oregon in 2014 and in the State of Washington in 2019.
When not working, Angie stays busy with her husband and two active children. She's inspired by travel and likes to hike, bake, read, knit, kayak, and dragonboat. She has run several half-marathons, the Portland Marathon, and the Hood to Coast relay multiple times. Angie has coached youth soccer since 2012 and volunteers at her children's school.
TESTIMONIALS
"I have to tell you that it looks spectacular, thanks in no small part to your design. It is really an enchanting, if not magical, space and [we] are deeply appreciative of the effort you put into creating something so visually exciting and memorable. The way the hallway draws the visitor toward the bedroom entry and then opens onto a complex space of turns and heights is truly exciting and enhances the sense of drama. I have to say that it exceeds our expectations in ways I had not imagined possible"
-Glyn Norton, client
"Although we had some specific ideas in mind about our mid-century remodel, we were never able to put it all together until Angie was hired as our architect. She came with strong references from several other homeowners and she did not disappoint. Along with a great sense of design, Angie's winning personality, efficient work style, willingness to listen carefully to our needs and dedication to produce a quality design resulted in a great final product. In addition, she was a great resource for decor, appliances, countertops, tile and fixtures. Importantly, she referred and worked closely with a great team of contractors, cabinet makers and crew who were all quality craftsmen. Any project which Angie takes on will undoubtedly be of the highest quality and sure to please!"
-Bette Yada, client
"Angie did the architecture and design work for a major remodel project in our residence. This included the master suite, family and dining rooms. She also has done preliminary design work for the guest suite and an office. She was easy and fun to work with, as well as being thorough and professional in all aspects of our relationship. Most importantly, she is highly creative and has the wonderful ability to bring her client's taste and ideas into a good workable design. We have other projects in mind for this residence, and Angie is the only architect we will consider using."
