Bright Spot is
. . .
Dynamic Duo Mike & Amanda Paglinger
We met while working as deconstructionists for Portland’s Rebuilding Center in 2003, got married in 2007, started our own business building beautiful spaces together in 2010, and started a family in 2013. Fun fact: We were born in the same hospital in the late 1970s…in San Francisco!
Our natural skills are very complimentary: Amanda takes the lead in design work while Mike takes the lead in construction, however both of us are quite proficient in both realms.
A Philosophy of Life
The name Bright Spot comes from the idea that everything, at its core, is inherently worthy of love and appreciation no matter how it might appear on the surface. When we treat ourselves, each other and the situations we’re in like this, powerful healing happens and miracles unfold.
