TRADITIONAL MOUNTAIN HOME

Located on a large elk preserve this traditional mountain home overlooks a river valley and mountains in the distance. Large windows take advantage of the beautiful views in every direction. The architecture focuses on the use of natural materials. Large wood columns anchor the entry and main staircase of the home; wood beams, stone fireplaces and oak millwork completed the look. The warmth of the finishes is brought to life using halogen downlights, uplights and concealed linear incandescent sources. Supplemental lighting is provided by LED puck lights and linear LED sources to provide accents on countertops and shelves. Every room in this house was carefully planned, from layout to cabinetry. Through coordination with plumbing, HVAC, fire protection and audio visual equipment, ensured that the finished space is well lit, while allowing the house to function as desired. The product of this coordination is a majestic wood and timber mountain dream home.
