Residential Architecture
Creating custom residential spaces that blend aesthetics with functionality, our residential architecture services focus on client-specific needs while incorporating sustainable materials and energy-efficient systems. We guide projects from concept to completion, ensuring compliance with local building codes and modern design standards. Our expertise extends to mountain homes, lakeside retreats, and universal design principles for aging-in-place.
Commercial Architecture
Delivering innovative commercial spaces, we prioritize functionality, accessibility, and sustainability. Our process includes site analysis, code compliance, and integration of energy-efficient systems tailored to business operations. From office buildings to retail spaces, we create environments that enhance productivity and align with brand identity while meeting jurisdictional requirements across multiple regions.
Passive Design
Specializing in passive house principles, we design buildings that optimize natural resources for heating, cooling, and ventilation. Our approach creates airtight envelopes with superior insulation and moisture control, reducing energy consumption while maintaining comfort. This service includes net-zero readiness assessments and compliance with rigorous sustainability standards.
Accessory Dwelling Units
We design code-compliant ADUs that maximize property value and functionality. Our services include zoning analysis, space optimization, and integration with primary residences. We navigate local regulations in Aspen, Basalt, Carbondale, and Glenwood Springs to create rental units, family housing, or vacation spaces that meet both client needs and municipal requirements.
3D Scanning Services
Using advanced 3D scanning technology, we create precise digital models for design visualization and construction planning. This service supports accurate spatial analysis, renovation projects, and client presentations. Our tools enable clients to visualize final outcomes before construction begins, reducing errors and streamlining decision-making processes.
