"Where prairie meets mountains"... this was the first design concept the homeowners expressed when describing their future dream home. It was born out of the gorgeous vistas  of multiple mountain ranges and vast prairie landscape. The exterior roof would embodied the surrounding shape of nature- a  mountain peak in the Great Room and sliding sloped roofs on the outside resembling the diversity of peaks colliding into one another. This home is a long one room deep house, celebrating  the incredible views from all the windows. A modern home with rustic warm accents. The exterior stone comes inside and greets you around the fireplace and under the breakfast bar and kitchen. Upon entering the great room, you are struck by the expansive panes of glass that that look to the west. This open concept kitchen, dining, and great room welcomes and brings the mountains to you. The main level also gives space to a beautiful master bedroom and bathroom that holds unique features such as a skylight in the shower and playful use of light and mirrors. The lower level has an office, workout/aquarium  area, theater and recreation space as well as a guest suite with a gorgeous guest bathroom. 

FEATURES: Abundant window design capturing views from every room, custom chef's kitchen, gorgeous bathrooms with soaking tubs, unique shower designs, positive pressure wood burning stove.
 

The practice of Wellness Architecture was a priority in this couples build. This passive solar design captures free heat in the south facing  greenhouse all the while providing  year round food and a natural humidity system throughout the house. This SIPS (structural insulated panels) home delivers an R-40 roof and wall system supplying  a super insulated shell, needing very little resources to heat and cool.  The goal was to rely on the art and science of designing with socially conscious systems and materials to promote a harmonious balance  between physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing while regenerating the natural environment. The finishes combine wood, stone, and clay giving a calming earthy feel to the interior-all eco and low VOC products.  Another priority was to design with daily health and wellbeing in mind- soaking tub, sauna, steam shower, and exercise room was all important elements to the build. Additionally this home features radiant in floor heating, European wood stove, and commercial water filtration system. The only utility to the home is electric -suppling hot water, heat, and energy for their EV (electric vehicle). To offset electric consumption they invested in 20 solar panels on the roof to achieve a net zero annual living. 
FEATURES: Active and passive solar home, R-40 SIPS wall and roof panels, sauna, steam shower, European wood stove, and rain water collection.
