It was a pleasure working on the renovation for this hardworking family who now can enjoy their apres-ski in style. You can't get better than being on the slopes in this amazing Colorado ski country and this property will now provide a more functional and beautiful space to enjoy their down time. Take note of this efficient kitchen design that provides ample cooking and sitting space and the master bedroom redesign which allows the homeowners which invites the outside in. There is something very peaceful about relaxing with a glass of wine or hot tea and watching the skiers come down the runs.
The welcoming warmth of the arcadia style never gets old. It is clean, yet warm and welcoming. This outdoor space complete with new gas fireplace facilitates casual quality-time family gatherings, evening relaxation and an opportunity to bring community back to busy neighborhoods as passers by say hello and engage in conversation. Good design should not only be visually appealing but it should reflect the personality of the homeowner, increase property value, and improve quality of life by providing space that encourage social engagement and relaxation.
Putting a “hat” on a house is a necessity, but creating a roof that seriously elevates the appearance of a home is not often a priority. The skill required to create an interesting, sophisticated and “wow” worthy roofline like this is steeped in years of intense training and experience. Greg Woods is known for his beautiful rooflines and doesn’t take the easy way out. The visual interest and materials used to create this roof structure is the “icing on the cake” to this beautifully designed Arcadia home. Hover over picture to see the backyard roof elevation.
