New Technologies

We've come a long way from drafting floorplans by hand and making construction copies on blue print machines. While many people are familiar with the 3D digital design tools we use to design buildings these days, you may not be familiar with some of the newer technology that works behind the scenes during the design process.LiDAR technology uses lasers and cameras to accurately map a space in 3D, generating a digital version that can be navigated remotely....

Off-Grid in Park County, Colorado

As solar and building technologies continue to advance, off-grid living is becoming an attainable goal. In some rural locations far from utility hook ups, it is even more appealing. Construction recently began on this self-sufficient home without ties to any utilities. Water is sourced from the on-site well and heating is provided by an in-floor radiant system tied to an electric heat pump powered by solar panels and a battery bank....

Longhorn Residence, Chaffee County

Nestled between the Sawatch and Sangre de Cristo Mountains outside of Salida, this new home incorporates both mountain and desert design. Wood siding and timber accents blend with metal, stucco, and stone for a unique aesthetic that fits well with this high desert location. Layered and intersecting shed roofs direct water and snow away from entries and patios. With breathtaking views in every direction and a dynamic climate with hot summer days and freezing winters, it was important to design outdoor living spaces on different sides of the house for different exposures....

Addition Remodels

You may have noticed the trend in recent years has been to demolish existing homes to make room for mega-mansions, built to fill the lot. While there are cases where older homes are not salvageable, often the home can be saved, remodeled, and added on to, creating an entirely new home at a fraction of the cost of new construction....

Land Planning

As buildable land in Summit County disappears, multi-family projects require more creativity and tenacity to bring to fruition.

A new Arapahoe Architects designed single-family home is under construction in Keystone. The small lot made it a challenge to fit the client’s ambitious program (4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, covered outdoor spaces, and two car garage) without simply extruding a box to the setbacks. With the help of a successful variance application and efficient space planning we were able to implement strategic variations on the façade that allowed for all the client’s goals to be incorporated while also providing an interesting and beautiful design. ...

As with many condos built in the post Eisenhower Tunnel boom, the Wildwood Lodge needed an update. The Lodge has been fully re-sided not only to freshen the look, but also to strategically protect areas previously prone to water intrusion and snow dump. New entries have been built to update the aesthetic and the interior common spaces have been updated as well. ...

A 2,700 square foot addition to the historic Father Dyer United Methodist Church is now wrapping up. Originally built in 1880 by the “Snow-Shoe Itinerant,” Father John Dyer, considered one of the founders of Colorado, this is the latest in a long history of expansion and refocuses on the design of the original Church as a scaled down massing that matches the historic roof pitches, windows and siding. ...
