Designing Interiors Around Mountain Views

One Colorado family’s vacation home becomes their primary residence

Our clients, an east coast-based couple, spent years vacationing with their family in the Roaring Fork Valley. But it took the pandemic (like many other secondary homeowners) to convince them to plant their roots year-round in their Colorado mountain home.

Their Carbondale home is now their primary residence and a gathering place for their growing family to come together during the holidays, ski season, and for summer getaways.

Designed with Nature as the Main Inspiration

Large floor-to-ceiling windows frame the calm mountain retreat environment inside and draw the eye outward to the magnificent view.
