At Anthropos Design, Russ Golubev creates enduring spaces—simple in form, deeply responsive to place—shaped through a calm, close collaboration with select homeowners, builders, and developers.
Studio
Anthropos Design is an architectural design studio led by Ruslan Golubev, working across Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. The practice specialises in modern luxury residences, renovations, and additions—delivering site-specific design guided by clarity, proportion, and restraint.
Each commission is carried from concept to completion through a considered, hands-on process that ensures continuity, discipline, and precision. Informed by client, site, and budget rather than style, the work seeks to elevate daily life—fostering connection, well-being, and a quiet sense of calm. Proportion, restraint, and craft underpin every project, resulting in architecture of enduring presence.
Working across scales, Anthropos Design approaches each brief with exacting attention to context and constraint. The ambition is to make a lasting contribution to the built environment through human-centred, environmentally responsible design—architecture that performs beautifully and gains grace with time.
We begin by listening—distilling your goals, values, and vision into a foundation that guides every decision. Early alignment ensures the process is purposeful from the outset.
The site is studied with precision, revealing its true opportunities and constraints. Zoning, budget, and schedule are balanced to create a brief that is both ambitious and grounded in reality.
Design unfolds through sketches, models, and refined iterations, with light, massing, and materiality resolved to the highest standard. Detailed documentation carries the vision seamlessly into construction, ensuring beauty, performance, and integrity.
Approach
In every beginning lies the essence of place and purpose. Through Site & Space Planning and Feasibility Studies, we uncover potential with precision—reading context, constraints, and intent to form a clear foundation for design.
Form develops through measured iteration. Schematic Design, Passive Solar Strategies, and 3D Visualization refine mass, light, and geometry into architecture that is purposeful, elemental, and attuned to its setting.
Precision carries vision into reality. Construction Documentation and Permitting resolve every detail, ensuring the design moves seamlessly from concept to completion with integrity intact.
