Home of the Year!

Colorado Homes and Lifestyles selected one of our client's houses as this year's Home of the Year! We thought we would take this opportunity and forum to call out certain details and crafts people that helped make this home so special. A special credit goes to Diamond Homes, one of Colorado's Premier Custom Home Builders, especially Steve Diamond and his project manager Spencer Wolfe whose amazing attention to detail and high quality work made this project sing!







The wet bar area was skillfully hand crafted by a local artisan (Sergey 720.933.9839) to house refrigerator drawers, an ice maker and an instant carbonation converter. We designed it to look like a found piece of furniture that was converted to a bar. The art is by Tony Scherman.






This bathroom was made even more beautiful with antiques by Shepton's and a rug by Shaver-Ramsey. The fireplace surround of black lip mussel tile was inlaid by the wonderful team at Diamond Homes.


One of the things that we think helps makes us one of the most creative and professional design teams in Colorado is the ability to sketch and conceptualize with the client before anything has been built. Check out this kitchen sketch that I drew very early on in the project to help the client and our team visualize what the end result might be. This is just one of many sketches that went on throughout the project to help bring about this remarkable project!
