The Good Life AS I MAKE MY WAY THROUGH another dreamy Colorado summer, I can’t help but continually be reminded how lucky I am to live and work in this beautiful state.

I’ve lived in some amazing places over the course of my life—Chicago, New Orleans, Kansas City, Houston—each with its own charm, excitement and uniqueness. But none of them captured my heart the way Colorado has.

That’s why this, our State of Design Issue, is always so much fun to produce. We get to show you what an exciting, innovative and stylish state this is—starting with our 2013 Home of the Year.

Actually, to call this home stylish is an understatement.

Owned by interior designer Mikhail Dantes, this spectacular home has all the hallmarks of design perfection: thoughtful architecture (by Scott Parker of Nest Architectural Design), a quiet, modern color palette, and of course, impeccable furnishings. Turn to page 48 and see for yourself.

In addition to this and two other inspiring homes, we’ve quizzed local designers and industry experts about this year’s top trends (page 17), rounded up some of our favorite Colorado-based businesses (page 27) and chatted with a few gallery owners to get the inside scoop about our dynamic arts community (page 35). There’s definitely a lot of creative energy around these parts.

I hope you’re having a wonderful summer and are taking some special time to experience a few of the people, places and things that make Colorado great.

Cheers,

Mary Barthelme Abel Editor in Chief

Top interior designers, architects and builders tell us what’s new and what’s now in Colorado

BY ERIN ENGLISH

BEEKMAN MARBLE WASHSTAND FOR WATERWORKS

Bath

“In the bath, everyone is transitioning from a heavy, traditional look to a clean, minimalist look,” says Chris Awadalla, designer with Interior Intuitions in Denver. Classic faucets in polished chrome and large-format tiles that require less grout are a few ways to get the look.

➺

Trends

Washstands made of a single material, like Beekman’s marble washstand, are coveted by consumers due to their “sculptural” look, says Brooke Erkal, showroom manager for Waterworks in Denver. “The bathroom is a retreat, and people really want things that are beautiful.”

When it comes to washing the cares of the day away, the oncecoveted jetted tub is now passé, and bathtubs in general are becoming less popular for actually soaking. “People are buying them as sculptural pieces rather than functional pieces,” says Brooke Erkal. Egg-shaped or perfectly square freestanding tubs are currently favored over a standard rectangular design.

ZIVA BY ARTISTIC TILE, DECORATIVE MATERIALS

In the world of tile, one of the hottest items showing up in baths this year is sculpted tile, made of stone and even porcelain.

{

“Tile is no longer just square and flat—everything has texture and dimension,” says Kirsten Schmit, product manager for Decorative Materials.

“In Italy they are taking some of the softer stones and carving patterns into them, which is wildly innovative.”

Color Trends

Retro colors are hot, with mid-century modern influences cropping up everywhere in architecture and interior design. “Characteristic of this period are cleaner and softer colors, like pastels without the cuteness factor,” says color consultant James Martin of The Color People in Denver.

While many experts point to pop culture for jump-starting the “mid mod” trend— particularly television’s hit period drama “Mad Men”—others say that after a long hiatus, it was simply time for the look to come back around. “Really, new trends

seem to happen with whatever has been out of fashion for quite a while,” Martin says.

TINA SIDE TABLE, MITCHELL GOLD+BOB WILLIAMS

Fresh from a Color Marketing Group meeting in Italy, (CMG is the premier international association that forecasts and tracks color trends) Martin offers this final insight about color in 2013: “The biggest trend in

color is color itself,” Martin says.

“People love color and want color in everything; they really don’t care so much about precisely what color. They just want more.

It makes them feel good.”

STARVIEW, YORK WALLCOVERINGS

Mid-century modern colors can be feminine, to be sure, with pale oranges, corals, soft blues, lilacs and lavenders. However, when paired with neutrals—such as this year’s popular gray tones—these delicate hues become decidedly more masculine. The pastel palette is showing up on wallpaper, floor tiles, and just about everything else.

However, says Susan Ferrari, vice president of Slifer Designs in Edwards, a “softer, traditional look” is also gaining traction in the design world and with consumers. “Especially in Colorado, comfort and lifestyle are most important,” Ferrari says. “There is a

return to more classic silhouettes.

Where there used to be a straight hard arm [on a chair], now there is a little more padding.”

Hernandez says that “playing with textures” is the predominant trend in furniture, examples of which include mixing suede or steel with wood, or combining matte and satin finishes.

➺

Consumers are also showing a preference for ceruse furniture, a weathered look that has evolved from raw wood designs that cracked over time to intentionally distressed pieces that are more durable.

professional is looking for new textures, geometric shapes; they don’t want what their parents have,” says interior designer Noelle Hernandez, founder of NCH Design in Aspen.

“People don’t want cookie-cutter, generic stuff,” agrees Brent Simon, president of Colorado Style Home Furnishings in Denver. “They want pieces that are usable and functional, but also interesting to look at.”

The desire to have functional furniture is apparent across every demographic in our state. But twenty- and thirtysomethings are still seeking out eclectic pieces that express their individuality—without sacrificing that element of comfort. “The young

“Restoration Hardware really brought cerusing back into the marketplace, with that driftwood look,” Susan Ferrari says. “People still want it to feel natural and reclaimed, but now there is a finish to it.

Green Trends

From shingles made out of poplar tree bark to pillows fabricated from recycled post-consumer waste, many Coloradoans are unwavering in their devotion to green products.

The reasons for ‘going green’ are numerous. “I want to be as energy-efficient as possible,” is the comment Paul Adams, architect and founder of Denver-based Earth and Sky Architecture, says he hears the most from his clients.

Inside and outside of the house, there is an ever-growing trend of combining old and new materials.

ENDLESS FLOW DINING CHAIR, DIRK VANDER KOOIJ

“I am seeing a broader, more consistent use of reclaimed materials, and the pairing of reclaimed with new,” David Adamson, owner of Eco-Build in Boulder, says. “People like this idea of finished and rough together—like hightech windows with strawbale construction, or a green roof with a really modern concrete exterior—a mix of natural and manufactured.”

➺ {

Brooke Erkal, showroom manager for Waterworks in Denver, says many of her customers are simply drawn to organic, imperfect products—such as these “tremendously popular” recycled clay tiles from Grove Brickworks.

Understanding the entire lifecycle of a product is becoming more commonplace, with individuals often digging through online resources for information, such as the Pharos Chemical and Material Library and the GreenSpec Directory. “People are

interested in how much energy it takes to make a certain thing,” David Adamson says. “For example, it takes a lot of energy to make a can of paint. Lime wash with a pigment in it protects the wall, is beautiful and requires a lot less energy to make. There are now better tools out there for people to evaluate ‘greenness.’”

In new kitchen designs and remodels, designers such as Chris Awadalla with Denver’s Interior Intuitions are routinely including a designated station for using and charging laptops, tablet computers and cell phones. Once just found in studies and entryways, these stations are now necessary in increasingly high-tech kitchens.

“We are seeing a lot of automated systems for interior lighting and the opening and closing of drawers.”

B3 DESIGN SYSTEM IN WALNUT, BULTHAUP

➺

Steam ovens as well as induction cooktops— lauded for being huge energy-savers—were slow to gain acceptance but are now routinely requested by consumers.

“We are moving away from pro-style gas ranges,” Tom Hartman says. “Induction cooking is becoming really popular. It is fast, precise and easy to clean.”

Tom Hartman, President of Kitchen Distributors in Denver, agrees that technology and automation reign.

For countertops, consumers still have a love affair with granite and are steadfast supporters of the timeless look. “Granite is, and will continue

to be, the captain of the kitchen. It’s durable, beautiful, has wonderful resale value and is a safe choice for homeowners,” Chris Awadalla says.

Technology is also making a big impact when it comes to beautifying kitchens. At Decorative Materials in Denver, waterjet-cut glass and tile mosaic backsplashes are a hot item.

Technology is playing a larger role than ever in the kitchen, from the massive sharing of creative design ideas through websites such as Houzz and Pinterest to increased efficiency through automation.

Modern cabinets designed with walnut and mahogany are in demand, as are cabinets with unique finishes. “People want a warmer contemporary kitchen; they want it to be eclectic,” says Margie McCulloch, owner of Red Pepper Kitchen + Bath Design. “Very often I’ll use more than one color on the cabinets.”

Consumers want handcrafted and unique fabrics to adorn their homes, and the textile industry is more than meeting the needs of today’s scrupulous clientele. “People are

gravitating toward things with multi-processes,” says Matt Goettge, showroom manager for F. Schumacher in Denver.

“They are willing to pay extra for the nuances of a handcrafted product.”

Consumers are asking for fabrics that have received a wide variety of treatments, including embroidery, beadwork, crystal embellishments and hand-printing. Perforated sheers and metallic finishes are also on-trend.

Interior designer Beth Armijo of Armijo Design Group in Denver says that Rubelli’s Cap D’Antibes fabric “sums up” what is showing up in florals this year: designs that are sophisticated, bright and cheery.

“We are seeing so many botanicals back on the scene,” Armijo says.

Consumers are snapping up ikat fabrics as well, and Goettge even predicts they will stay steadily in demand for the next five to ten years.

“Ikats are popular in our region because they have the feeling of Native American textiles,” he says.

Goettge’s clientele are also requesting wallpaper, particularly the grasscloth variety, with and without embellishments, applied to whole rooms or as an accent behind a bookcase or on a single wall. “We are seeing a

Architecture & Building Trends

CHALET DEVELOPMENT

Authentic. Understated. Refined. These are descriptors that Don Ruggles, founder of DHR Architecture in Denver, routinely hears from his clients as they try and define what type of home will make them the happiest.

“There is a resurgence of traditional design with a more refined sensibility,” Ruggles says. “It is in between contemporary and full-on traditional.”

John Mattingly, principal at Chalet Development in Denver, hears similar terminology from his clients, who prefer “durable, time-honored materials” and “tried-and-true” concepts.

“We attract a lot of what I call ‘contemporary classic’ or new traditional,” Mattingly says. “The design can be translated back to 150 years ago, but there is a current edge to it.”

In mountain towns, people’s tastes are more varied. Al Beyer, owner of Al Beyer Design in Aspen, says his recent workload has ranged from classic “storybook” Colorado cabins to extremely minimalist homes. But as a general observation, he notes that a move from rustic to updated has been in the works for a while.

“A more modernist ethic is supplanting some of the traditional classic purely gabled mountain architecture,” Beyer says.

Architects and builders have seen their workloads grow in 2013, as people are once again interested in building homes or making a move with a project they put on hold during the economic downturn.

24

COLORADOHOMESMAG.COM

“There is confidence in the marketplace that there is a sustained upward trend, and people are comfortable with making the leap to start a project,” Ruggles says.

“The new-build market has seen a positive change in the last six months, more so than the last few years,” Mattingly says. “We stayed pretty busy during the downturn and it was easy for clients to find building sites. Now, there are many more people looking for dirt, so land costs have gone up considerably.”

“We were separating things out, where you would have a cigar room, a wine room, a wrapping paper room,” Ruggles says. “Now there is a move to recombine functions into one room. The list of requirements hasn’t changed, but there is a more efficient use of square footage.”

Get it here first: where to go, what to do and who’s making a splash in the world of style

Back to the Future HIGH-COUNTRY CULTURE A STROLL DOWN CRESTED BUTTE’S Elk Avenue is always time well spent, but when that stroll takes place during this charming mountain town’s annual arts fest, it becomes a day to remember. In its 41st year, the Crested Butte Arts Festival features 175 artists from around the world as well as entertainment, culinary demonstrations and an auction that benefits art education. August 2-4; crestedbutteartsfestival.com

THE FURORE SUSPENSION contemporary light fixture, with its sleek finish and industrial-like glass, feels both retro and futuristic.

SANDOVAL

Does it Again CHEF RICHARD SANDOVAL,

dubbed the “Father of Modern Mexican Cuisine,” is already a household name around these parts, thanks to delicious Denver hotspots like La Sandia and Zenga, and Venga Venga in Snowmass. Now, with the recent opening of Maya (in the Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa), folks in Beaver Creek can indulge in Sandoval’s signature dishes, unique guacamole— made fresh at your table—and over 100 types of tequila. richardsandoval.com/mayabc

Mid-Century Celebration MID-CENTURY MODERN furniture continues to be all the rage, with both original vintage pieces and new modern designs snapped up by savvy trendsetters.

State of the Arts Three Colorado art gallery owners reveal which artists are among their favorites and why artists and art lovers are happier (and luckier) here than ever before

The Experts

CHRISTIAN DORE, FLIGHT, ACRYLIC/MIXED MEDIA ON CANVAS, 36 X 72 INCHES

BY HILARY MASELL OSWALD

STEVE SONNEN, MIRADA FINE ART GALLERY, INDIAN HILLS CH&L: Who’s your favorite emerging artist?

Steve Sonnen: I’m a little biased because if I really like an artist, I try to get him or her into our gallery. So with that disclaimer, one of my favorites right now is Christian Dore. He’s from England, but he’s been in Denver for several years. Most of what he paints is his own distinctive take on the Colorado landscape. It has almost an abstract, cubist feel with these amazing, lush colors. It’s the type of work you have on a wall and every day you see new things. When he paints a tree, it’s not like anyone else’s tree. His process takes a while—which is understandable. My only complaint with his pace is that I have a gallery I’d like to fill with this work!

So while you’re waiting, tell us your thoughts on Colorado’s art community.

Mirada Fine Art Gallery is located in Indian Hills, just 20 miles southwest of Denver.

Its next exhibition, Marcela Panasiti: Art from the Earth, opens August 23.

For more information, visit miradafineart.com

I think the art scene here is pretty amazing, and it’s continuously expanding. I grew up here and moved to California for a long time. My wife and I moved back about 10 years ago. Then, if you didn’t live in Colorado, you assumed the only “art” created here was bears carved from logs. Today, it would be hard for people outside of Colorado to argue that we don’t have a lively art scene. The gallery scene has been continuously growing as well. Just the other day, a couple walked into our gallery and told me they were on an art trip across the western states. They’d been to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Scottsdale, and Santa Fe. They said they were more impressed with the quality of art in Colorado galleries than they were with the work in Santa Fe. I wasn’t surprised: What’s available in Colorado to art collectors is really amazing.

WILL CLIFT, ENCLOSING FORM, LOW AND HORIZONTAL, BLACK WALNUT WOOD, 11 X 35 X 2 INCHES

State of the Arts

WILL THOMPSON, TELLURIDE GALLERY OF FINE ART

JESÚS MOROLES, FIGURES

CH&L: We know you’ve been in business for a long time—28 years by our count—but which artists are most exciting to you right now?

Will Thompson: I’ll give you two. Jesús Moroles, a sculptor. He’s quite a major artist. He’s one of the very few sculptors who have received the National Medal of Arts; it’s the highest award the U.S. government gives to people in the arts. Andrew Wyeth won it. So did Georgia O’Keeffe and John Updike.

So Jesús is in good company. What I like about his work is that he sculpts only in granite, which is a pretty tough material to manipulate. Most sculptors doing his style might work in marble, but not Jesús.

My other recommendation is Will Clift. If you’ve been to the Four Seasons Hotel [in Denver], you’ve seen his pieces right there behind the reception area. What I love about his work—it’s almost beyond adjectives.

He works primarily in wood and creates these streamlined, mobile sculptures that make you think about harmony and balance and grace. They remind me of [Alexander] Calder’s work, in terms of lightness.

And give us your take on Colorado’s visual arts community.

When the state government, in 2011, passed a bill to encourage the formation of creative districts, it was a great acknowledgement that the arts play a big role in our economy and in attracting tourists. Of course, you’ve got Colorado ski country, but people come to Colorado for more than the mountains. Culture matters here.

Telluride received a little seed money as a creative district, and it really got us thinking about the cultural master plan here. We have a lot of grassroots arts organizations that have been really successful across all areas of the arts— dramatic arts, literary arts, films, visual arts. The beauty might draw people here, but it’s the arts scene that encourages them to stay.

The Telluride Gallery of Fine Art has been a fixture on the mountain town’s historic Colorado Avenue since 1985.

BRIGAN GRESH, GATHERING 3, MIXED MEDIA ON PANEL, 40 X 40 INCHES

BRIGAN GRESH, GATHERING ROSEBUDS, MIXED MEDIA ON PANEL, 36 X 48 INCHES

CH&L: Do you have a favorite emerging or new artist?

38

COLORADOHOMESMAG.COM

Bobbi Walker: How about a mid-career artist? We just had an exhibit with [painter and mixed-media artist] Brigan Gresh, and it was very close to a sellout show. Her work is innovative and fresh, but it’s conceptual as well. I’m from Kentucky, so I always say that art really hits the trifecta if it’s three things: aesthetically compelling, intellectually or spiritually stimulating and technically executed. Brigan’s work is all three. I started with her when she was an emerging artist, and I was the only gallery on her resume. It’s been wonderful to see her execution of work go up a level with each exhibit she creates for the gallery.

Let’s talk for a second about the arts scene here.

We just had our 10-year anniversary last year, as did several of the other mid-career [artist] galleries. We have a wide range of mid-career galleries in Denver, and I think that all of them are so dedicated to the artist and dedicated to the city. I see real people, authentic people, doing interesting, compelling shows. That’s thrilling.

And a lot of cities—cities larger than Denver—have a single arts district.

We have seven. It really allows a neighborhood to create its own flavor. You don’t need 40 art galleries in a neighborhood. You need five good ones. Then people can pick a First Friday and explore the galleries and the neighborhood.

You aren’t rushing through 40 galleries. You can really experience what each gallery has to offer. That’s something remarkable. We’re very, very lucky.

Located in Denver’s Golden Triangle, Walker Fine Art specializes in contemporary art and sculpture. For more information, visit walkerfineart.com.

clients come to you for...My client-first philosophy. In my experience as a Denver metro area real estate professional, I’ve found that providing the very best service is essentially about putting my clients first. This means keeping myself accessible, being a good listener as well as a good communicator, and responding quickly to your needs. is now a good time to buy? There has never been a better time to buy a home in the Colorado real estate market. Home prices, although on the rise, are still at an all-time Colorado low and low interest rates provide buyers with the best opportunity to purchase much more house than they could have purchased eight years ago. what’s your advice for sellers today? Make certain that your home is in “show home” condi-

Rita Smith Broker

tion—first impressions are everything. A buyer begins to analyze your home as they walk to the door. If you see peeling paint, cracked sidewalks, dirty baseboards and walls, so will the buyer. The buyer begins to see dollars flying out of his pocket to fix these things, so make sure he sees nothing but a nice, clean home, in mint condition!

share with us some hot spots in your market. The Parker and Castle Rock markets are hot; homes priced between $250,000 and $400,000 are selling the first day on the market with multiple offers and over asking price in most cases! Close-in acreage properties in Franktown, Elizabeth and Parker are also selling in 15 to 30 days. your style is influenced by...My style of listing and selling largely depends on my clients’ wishes.

Communication is the key to any good relationship, and selling real estate is no different. If you listen to what your clients’ needs, desires and concerns are, the chances of a smooth transaction are far greater.

what’s your advice for sellers today? The properties receiving the most offers and interest are still the gems that have been well maintained and updated. If your home isn’t up to par, plan on pricing it accordingly. Our staging advice and consultation nets the most for our sellers.

What’s your advice for buyers today? Our best advice for buyers today is, be flexible and be creative. When your offer is flexible, it’s more attractive to sellers and sometimes beats out a higher offer. Also, be different by offering a personal letter to the seller. This makes your offer stand out from the pack and gives the transaction a personal element that may just tip the seller in your favor.

The Rowley Group Broker

Clients come to you for...Our clients come to us for a pleasant, hassle-free experience. They trust our knowledge and know we’ll get the job done. Whether our clients need help figuring out if it’s the right time to buy or sell, they simply need comps for a refinance or are just curious what the market is doing in their area, they trust us for sound advice in a seemingly unpredictable market.

Is now a good time to buy? Right now is a great time to buy while home prices are affordable and just on the upward swing and financing rates are incredibly low. Waiting could make or break your buying power. Your best bet is to consult a realtor with expertise in the area where you want to buy or sell and see if it’s time for you to make a move.

how does your team assist clients? Our goal is to assist clients in making well-thought-out and educated investments. Melanie’s 20 years in the appraisal industry, coupled with my 28 years in luxury real estate, allow us to review the decision from both an analytical and emotional standpoint.

Clients know that we treat them and their decisions in the same manner we would want to be treated. what’s your advice for sellers today? Our personal experience is that many homes are not market ready. Having a business plan that includes expert opinions from stagers, contractors and an appraiser allow us to give sellers advice on how to compete in the marketplace.

is now a good time to buy? Interest rates are at a near record low, making now the time to buy.

However, inventory is also at an all time low. Our buyer business plan targets which house is the right investment for the client, making these two factors work for you.

Your style is influenced by...The rich varieties of natural hues in our gorgeous state inspire my style. In the vibrant sunset tints, cool mountain tones and rustic western colors, Colorado offers many opportunities to express style. Outdoor entertaining spaces are wonderful!

what’s special about mountain real estate? Colorado is special because of the diversity of neighborhoods within one metro area. We are fortunate to have areas like Parker, Castle Rock and Evergreen that feel like the mountains, but also hip and urban areas like Wash Park, Cherry Creek and the Highlands and many great surrounding areas!

My experience extends throughout Greenwood Village, Castle Rock, Littleton, Lone Tree, Parker, Highlands Ranch, Centennial, Denver, Larkspur, Golden, Broomfield, Lafayette, Arvada and Westminster.

is now a good time to buy? Now is an excellent time to invest in real estate. I have never seen rates this low and doubt that I will again in my lifetime. Housing values are rising steadily throughout the many markets of the Denver metro area.

what’s your advice for buyers today? Be prepared. Work with a professional that you trust. Have your financing secured, know your non-negotiable items and be prepared to make decisions.

Clients come to you for...My connection to Coldwell Banker with the international reach it brings. “Your buyer could be anywhere. That’s why we’re everywhere” is a powerful statement that resonates with people.

what’s your advice for sellers today? With our very dynamic market, it is important to associate yourself with someone who understands the market. Over-pricing a property damages it in the marketplace and greatly reduces its chance of selling. Under-pricing a property costs you. So be sure to work with an experienced trustworthy Coldwell Banker agent.

Is now a good time to buy? From a long-term perspective there is no bad time to buy. However, now is a particularly good time to buy, as it seems that the significant declines in prices we have experienced for the past four years have abated. In Steamboat Springs we are beginning to experience multiple offers and price increases.

what’s special about mountain real estate? Summers are the best in Breckenridge. At 10,000 feet we are immune to hot, sticky summers, and there is so much to do outside. For skiers and boarders, Breckenridge is a fabulous mountain, and improving each year, this year with the addition of Peak 6. If you’re not a skier, your property can earn quite an income.

clients come to you for...34 years in Summit County real estate, the first agent to break $1,000,000, $2,000,000 and $5,000,000 but I am just as hard-working with the buyers who only have $350,000 to spend. I can see the future because I have so much history.

is now a good time to buy? There is no better time to buy. Low interest rates, and up here we have not recovered as fast as Denver, so there are still great buys to be had. The Dowd Frank Bill will make mortgages far harder in 2014, so now is the time to buy and invest your money in something that can enhance your life and your financial well-being.

Karyn Contino Broker

Clients come to you for...My clients typically come to me for my knowledge, expertise, and enthusiasm that’s necessary to make every transaction a smooth one. My familiarity with the Denver area allows me to accommodate my clients in finding the perfect home, while my tenacity and professionalism enable me to negotiate the best price for both buyers and sellers.

what’s your advice for sellers today? The pendulum has swung and with record low inventory it’s a great time to sell! That being said, it’s still important to stage your home well for showings. Pricing still plays an important role in getting top dollar, so make sure to hire a professional that will get you there.

Is now a good time to buy? With record low interest rates, today is a fantastic time to buy. Whether you are purchasing for the first time, moving up or downsizing...don’t delay. What you can afford with today’s interest rates won’t last forever!

is now a good time to buy? We are advising our buyers not to wait to buy, as prices are rising. The home they like today will be more costly in six months. As well, while they are not expected to sky rocket, mortgage interest rates are creeping up.

clients come to you for...Many of our clients come to us because of the Venus/Mars perspective we bring to the process of home buying or selling as a husband and wife team. As one client put it, we “offer the best of both worlds,” whereas we say “two realtors for the price of one.”

share with us some hot spots in your market. While we sell throughout the metro Denver market, we specialize in the area around the Denver Tech Center. Home prices range from the mid-$300,000’s to well over $1 million. For those who work in DTC, you can’t find a shorter commute and there is great access to light rail for those who work downtown. The acclaimed Cherry Creek School District is a big draw as well.

what’s your advice for sellers today? My advice for sellers is to pick an agent that can market your home the best. When selling a home you want the most competitive possible exposure that can deliver more potential buyers to your front door.

what’s your advice for buyers today? My advice for buyers in this market is to have an agent that is willing to put forth as much effort as possible to find you the right home. In this market, where inventory is low, your agent has to be on top of the market every second. Otherwise, you might miss out on a wonderful home.

what’s your advice to sellers today? Don’t rush to take the first offer. Give the market a little time to respond to your property. Make sure there’s enough pre-marketing to get the buyers ready to purchase your property so once it’s available to show, the market already knows about it.

what’s your advice to buyers today? Get pre-approved for your loan, look at all the property available so you are educated and ready to make an offer on a house once it becomes available. If you love a house, do not waiver­—just write your best possible offer. Be aggressive and be quick...but only for the right house!

share with us some hot spots in your market. It’s never a bad time to buy the least expensive property in the best neighborhood. Real estate is still location, location, location.

Also, look for properties with good floor plans, nice size yards, basement, garage and a good school nearby. It’s easy to add value to these homes by doing minor upgrades!

HOME OF THE

YEAR

The chimney was retained from the 1950s ranch that previously stood on the property because traditional wood-burning fireplaces can no longer be built within Denver city limits, architect Scott Parker says.

He and homeowner/ designer Mikhail Dantes made the fireplace an architectural feature by keeping the chimney bumped out from the wall and adding a sleek, marble surround.

MODERN, MINIMALIST STYLE IS ostensibly simple—white walls, bare floors, sparse furnishings—but achieving this kind of perfection is much more difficult than it seems. Then again, Mikhail Dantes has an unfair advantage over most homeowners.

As founder of D+D Interiors and co-owner of Town at the Denver Design District, Dantes has been creating sophisticated, welcoming interiors for his clients for more than 20 years. He knows what works and how rooms are lived in, so when it came to designing, building and furnishing his own home, he knew exactly what he wanted —and where to get it. “I do have a good pool of pretty things to pull from,” he laughs.

Dantes had another thing going for him: He was working with architect Scott Parker of Nest Architectural Design, whom he has known for decades and with whom he has worked on many a project. Their collaboration on this home was wonderfully seamless—as is the end result—because of Dantes’ unwavering vision.

“When Mikhail first came to me and said that he wanted to build a house, he already knew what he was going to do. He had a sketch of the home ready, and I’m pretty sure he had furniture laid out,” Parker says. “I just had to help him make it happen.”

“I narrowed the openings to make them feel even taller,” Dantes says. (above, right) “I love high ceilings, and all of my furniture is very low to accentuate them. Then great light fixtures help to create a canopy effect,” Dantes says of the spidery, silver-plated chandelier by Thomas O’Brien for Visual Comfort.

Dantes often works out of his home office, which features an elegant but understated mix of finishes and furnishings. “I’m a minimalist, but I do focus on textural combinations. There’s always a contrast of finishes, even within the same color palette—shiny versus matte, lacquer versus satin,” he says.

Designing From the Inside Out With an interior designer at the helm, it’s no wonder that this new construction project began with floor plans rather than with the façade. But according to architect Scott Parker, that’s a smart way to design a modern home.

“With this home, we kind of designed from the inside out, with a lot of what we call ‘net fit.’ When it comes to modern architecture, there’s no room for error, so we were working with sixteenth-ofan-inch tolerances,” he says.

Working with simple, unadorned materials is not for amateurs; the beauty is in the expert application. Painted drywall versus wood paneling, concrete versus hardwood floors—the finishes chosen affect how the house is built.

To get as close to perfection as possible, “we actually start at the finish surfaces and then design out to the structure to make sure that we end up with that finish surface being exactly where it needs to be in terms of all of the other things that relate to it,” Parker says. “We can’t just put up a frame wall and hope that it works out.”

(above) The dining room boasts the tallest ceiling in the house, topping out at nearly 17 feet. Clerestory windows ring the room to introduce more natural light. (opposite) The kitchen’s large island offers extra prep space and seating for casual dining. A wide window looks onto the courtyard and at the master suite sitting opposite.

Dantes modeled his home’s footprint off of the sprawling 1950s ranch that previously stood on the property, retaining a few elements such as the below-grade garage and woodburning fireplace, but then extending the home to include a spacious master suite. To make the best use of the property, he oriented the home to open up to the backyard and positioned the addition to serve as a privacy screen from the nearby bustling boulevard.

Although the exterior of the 3,500-square-foot home is clad in hard cementitious stucco, the interior is a fluid space. Rectangular volumes of various heights and widths provide an experience of “compression and release,” inspired by the spatial play of Frank Lloyd Wright’s designs. Transitional spaces, such as the gallery that leads to the master suite, feature ceilings at more standard heights, while most living spaces open up with ceilings soaring from 13 feet to nearly 17 feet high.

Dantes and Parker exaggerated that spaciousness by installing ceiling-height doorways leading off from the dining room, a central space in the home. The doorways are lined with thick, seamless planks of ebonized oak and their dimensions are narrower than standard

To get the most out of the large hilltop property, Dantes and Parker oriented the home to create exterior private spaces. They used the wing containing the master suite as a buffer for the backyard and strategically placed windows throughout the home to face those private areas. Concrete and steel columns lining the patio lend the home a Grecian feel. “It’s almost like it’s stone. That’s the idea: to take a historic element and bring it into the current times,” Parker says.

(above, left) In the master bedroom, as in the rest of the home, Dantes worked in shades of black and white—and everything in between. “It’s like my personal style: I wear a lot of gray and white.” (above, right) The master bathroom features a wet room with a sunken soaking tub. “We built a separate foundation to support the weight of the tub, which is lined with statuary vein marble slabs,” Dantes says. “I did that for aesthetic reasons; I knew I wouldn’t be using it very often. When it comes to designing for myself, I’m more driven by design than practicality.”

doorways to make them look even taller. Windows sit just below the ceilings in the living room and family room, which flank the dining room, allowing natural light to flood the home and amplify its volume.

“We built the house with this axial symmetry that runs through it,” Parker says. “The four interior doors off of the dining room are aligned, and then the windows in the family room follow suit. There’s a lot of that mirroring, that looking back and forth, to give the different sections of the house a relationship.”

To complement the home’s architectural symmetry and ensure a consistent tone from room to room, Dantes furnished the spaces with a mostly monochromatic mix of vintage pieces from the 1960s and ‘70s, along with several contemporary items culled from his showrooms. “All of my furniture is very low, which accentuates the high ceilings,” he says. “It’s a lot of white on white, with a bit of gray thrown in.

I don’t use very much pattern or color because I get tired of it. I never get tired of white.”

This is a man who knows what he likes, and who gets it right the first time. Dantes didn’t deviate much from the original sketch that he brought to his meeting with Parker, and the home is just as he’d imagined. “After I did my little floor plan, I saw my house done,” he says. “Then with Scott being as talented as he is, he made it a hundred times better.”

Balancing Act A skillful blend of sleek and rustic elements delivers mountain modern style to homeowners with distinctly different tastes

BY NANCY RICHMAN MILLIGAN PHOTOGRAPHY BY DAVID PATTERSON

(opposite) This alcove exemplifies designer Susse Budde’s mountain modern style: a glam, mirrored console is juxtaposed with rough wood walls and the antler chandelier that homeowner Sean Curnow craved. The wood slice sculpture is from HW Home.

HE IS FROM AUSTRALIA AND ENVISIONED all-American Wild West influences for their Steamboat Springs vacation home—antler chandeliers, reclaimed wood walls and bearskin rugs. She travels the world on business and stays in high-design hotels, and craved a similar modern elegance. Design/build team Susse Budde and Corey Larsen of Dimension Fine Homes skillfully delivered both aesthetics to homeowners Sean Curnow and Ginnie Carlier without compromising design. “Sean saw photos of a shiny glass-and-steel chandelier and worried about not getting his mountain home. Ginnie saw barn wood samples and worried they were too rustic,” says Budde. “When paired together, everything worked.”

The homeowners, who live overseas, found the house while vacationing in Colorado. A chance meeting with Larsen and Budde resulted in a two-year project that would triple the size of the original 2,000-square-foot house and take it from a dated, predictable vacation home to a striking example of sophisticated, yet approachable, 57

Shedding Some

Light It is no accident that the light fixtures in this house command attention. Designer Susse Budde shares her design philosophy and advice on lighting:

Design Inspiration Budde typically starts her rooms with lighting and builds a design around it. “It’s somewhat unconventional, but if you start with a fabulous piece, it sets the tone for the room,” she says. “Look at lighting as a piece of art and let it be your starting point.”

Key Element Budde points out that lighting is often an afterthought, once the room is designed and most of the budget is spent. “Lighting needs to be well thought out.

Spend money on lighting first and make concessions later on less important things,” she advises. “People say they can always change out a light fixture, but they don’t.”

Complement

(above) A commissioned painting of aspen trees by Lance Whitner adds a strong pop of color to the landing; a painting by Carol Jean depicts the mountain view seen from the home’s living room window. The commanding prism pendants from Fuse Lighting hang by leather straps, a nod to the mountain aesthetic. (opposite) A 60-inch round chandelier from Ochre has a steel canopy and individual glass pieces that look like oversize raindrops. “It’s the ultimate contrast to barn wood,” says the designer.

Fixtures in the same or adjoining rooms don’t need to match. They can be different, but should have similar elements, such as materials and shape. (See how the curved glass fixtures in the living and dining rooms of this house relate to one another.)

mountain modern style. “I love to mix old and new, shiny and rough, clean-painted and rustic wood surfaces,” says Budde. “Everything stands out when you mix opposites. You can really appreciate barn wood when you see stainless steel and glass next to it. It’s more exciting than the expected.”

Budde and Larsen completely gutted the home and pushed out the walls in two directions to add two new guest suites, a giant bunkroom, an entry and mudroom, a large gym and a three-car garage. The shell of the house relies heavily on wood finishes: eco-friendly beetle-kill pine ceilings, recycled barn-wood walls and 200-year-old reclaimed oak floors. Larsen hand-distressed the hefty wood ceiling beams to make them appear old. “Together we built the exterior shell, then I just went to town with spatial arrangements, flow and windows,” Budde says.

“I’m a big pusher of windows, especially with this home’s 270-degree unobstructed mountain views.”

The furniture includes a vintage-look settee, a hundred-year-old wood chair and a sawhorse table from HW Home. “I loved all the lines and thought it was an interesting mix,” says Budde. (right) The exterior features rustic finishes paired with modern lines and large windows.

Budde brought in modern elements and glossy finishes to contrast with all the rustic wood. Stunning glass light fixtures provide sparkle and drama: a canopy of glass globes in the dining room relates to an oversize glass-and-steel chandelier in the adjacent living room; three large cubes of prism glass highlight the two-story entry. Industrial steel railings and paneling also help counterbalance the warmth of natural elements.

Budde mixed some vintage finds with custom furniture of her own design—clean, modern pieces upholstered in luscious linen and velvet. Color comes from art and accessories, which is employed in sparing, yet effective amounts—bright orange lockers in the entry, bursts of blue and gold in the art. “There is a lot going on with the texture of the wood—up close you see so much depth—so you need to be careful with color,” Budde says.

The design team prepared the house down to the smallest detail: cupboards stocked, beds made and champagne and fruit on the table. “The homeowners showed up with 18 people in tow—friends and family from across the globe,” Budde relates. “Sean picked me up and spun me around; Ginnie just couldn’t believe it. The whole family was over the moon. It was a very dramatic reveal.”

Maison Classique Denver designer Jeff Elliott creates a big, bold, Frenchinspired home for a young, active and très chic family

BY SALLY STICH PHOTOGRAPHY BY EMILY MINTON REDFIELD

THERE ARE HOMEOWNERS WHO LEAVE everything to the pros and homeowners who work alongside the pros. This particular client knew exactly what he wanted, rendering this complex project a partnership with his designer from beginning to end.

“I had worked with this client on his previous home,” says designer Jeff Elliott, owner of Jeffrey P. Elliott Interior Design, “and he had learned things that informed this project. He had very specific wants and needs—including large rooms, a double staircase in the foyer and art that created the personality of each room.” He loves French-inspired design, and architect Carlos Alvarez, of AlvarezMorris Architecture Studio, and Elliott worked together to assure the classical interior would flow naturally from the classical exterior.

(opposite) Upon entering the tall, arched front door, guests are wowed by the double staircase, a must-have for the homeowners. The checkerboard Michelangelo marble floor sets the stage for a vignette that is a study in classical symmetry. Two lounge chairs from Denver’s TJ Horan & Associates add modern flair. (above) The family room offers a comfortable Hickory White sectional upholstered in velvet.

(above) The Michelangelo marble from the front hall continues in the guest powder room, where it is also incorporated in the vanity.

Thibaut gold metallic chinoiserie wallpaper adds grandeur to the small space. (left) The breakfast nook features Hickory White chairs that surround a custom table designed by Elliott; its red steel base in a Chinese motif is a fun, exotic touch. (below) Anchored by two Jacques-Louis David reproductions, The Oath of Horatii and Napoleon at the St. Bernard Pass, the homeowner’s study exudes a strong masculine presence, reinforced by the fireplace designed in red dragon granite. The wallpaper is Schumacher’s ”The Travels of Genghis Khan” pattern. (opposite) The living room is an oasis of calm, anchored by an azul imperial granite fireplace surround— blue is one of the homeowner’s favorite colors. Two Hickory White armchairs are covered in a contemporary update of a baroque pattern.

Most of the rooms in the home are expansive, with high ceilings, says Elliott, which presented a human-scale challenge. To that end, Elliott took basic details—fireplaces and doorways, for example—and bulked them up. He used bold wallpapers and accent colors. And he selected furniture pieces that fit into large rooms without becoming dwarfed by the space. “Using bold finishes and large-scale furniture in big rooms brings everything down to human scale,” he says.

Elliott’s design inspiration came from the French Baroque style with classical touches from Asia. To keep the home from looking dated or stuffy, he added a contemporary spin—updated wallpaper patterns, classic furnishings upholstered with fresh, sumptuous fabrics, and

(this page) The classic kitchen’s custom cabinetry from John Murphy Millworks is solid mahogany—dark and powerful, as the homeowner requested. Elliott added deeper moldings over the stove and lion corbels as decorative detailing. The china cabinet has a mirrored back to add depth and light; Visual Comfort farmhouse pendants add a modern edge.

traditional colors—black, gray, brown, blue—used in interesting ways, such as the blue granite fireplace and black Schonbek chandelier in the living room.

Large-scale art—including a number of fine reproductions of great masters—makes a bold statement throughout. The client and Elliott combed through 1st-art-gallery.com to select pieces for each room that would set the personality of that space.

The oversized details, the elegant materials, the traditional-but-updated wall coverings, the dramatic historical art, all reveal the homeowner’s distinct personality and style, brought to life through his partnership with Elliot. It is a home whose magnificence results from genuine collaboration—a designer’s trained eye and the owner’s confident heart.

residential under 3,500 square feet Green Cube

Mark Bowers, AIA Architectural Workshop What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

Designing a spacious contemporary home with plentiful outdoor spaces on a small nonconforming city lot with stringent city codes.

In addition, the home was to be the first LEED Platinum home in Denver.

How did you resolve it?

The home is designed with verticality in mind and outdoor spaces on each floor. A roof deck provides breathtaking views, and the many sustainable features feel ‘natural’ to the living environment.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

Thinking outside the box and incorporating an actual ‘green cube’ feature on the exterior created a fun focal point, making this ‘green’ residence the talk of the hill.

residential between 3,500-7,000 square feet Horseranch Residence Amanda Kurz | Cathers Home What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

Executing a combination of contemporary and rustic elements to satisfy our client’s desires, and doing so in a design that worked.

How did you resolve it?

The material selection and placement were extremely important.

The main living spaces were enhanced with new finishes, creating focal features in each room.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

Each bathroom is very different but works with the whole house.

Achieving this was a challenge, but in the end each bathroom became my favorite one as I walked into it.

residential over 7,000 square feet Westcliffe

John Rowland | Rowland+Broughton What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

With an aggressive design and construction timeline, the homeowner also wanted to preserve as much of the previous home as possible. The team rotated the home 180 degrees on the existing floor plate, began construction and selected interior elements all in 18 months.

How did you resolve it?

A robust technology system, stringent organization skills, and meticulous documentation allowed for all team members to move in a cohesive direction.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

The doors and custom windows allow every room to open onto a stunning view. A clean and neutral palette throughout the home creates continuity and a crispness that complements the exterior landscape. Neutral accessories are minimal, with meaningful artifacts from family travels.

Kimberly Timmons, ASID, IIDA Kimberly Timmons Interiors What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

The biggest challenge on this project was the entry foyer, because it was such a long open space. Also, the oversized staircase landing was an opportunity to create a memorable space.

How did you resolve it?

The entry foyer was resolved with the addition of wall sconces, furniture, art, accessories and a custom-sized area rug to create a welcoming first impression. The stair landing was furnished with two over-sized wing chairs to create a special nook.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

If we had to select one, it would be that the millwork design of the library turned out beautifully, creating a unique and memorable room.

Townhome Kitchen Diane White | Studio3 Kitchen Bath Interiors What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

Providing enough storage without making the kitchen look cramped, while creating a sexy, stunning kitchen for a young bachelor.

How did you resolve it?

The kitchen was extended into the dining room area, helping create more storage in this bold, sophisticated design. Concrete was used in the project to pay tribute to the homeowner’s grandfather’s concrete business.

Developing a timeless, functional single space within a set floor plan, with areas that included a kitchen, living room, formal dining room, entry and patio dining.

How did you resolve it?

By paying close attention to a fluid color palette, including custom millwork, textiles, furniture, specific lighting scenes, paint, stain, masonry and accessories.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

The opportunity to be involved with every detail of the project from concept to completion. It is impossible to choose one favorite, as the entire project was intertwined.

Carbondale Golfside Townhome Lanthia Hogg | Lanthia Hogg Designs What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

To finish the project within budget, but with great design. The project involved minimal flexibility with minor changes to the floor plan, while transforming a ‘cookie cutter’ mountain town home.

How did you resolve it?

We achieved our goal with simplicity of clean lines, warm tones and custom millwork throughout the house. The millwork design element became the furniture narrative of the home, providing a visual aesthetic and functionality of the space.

hospitality Hotel Jerome

Sarah Broughton | Rowland-Broughton What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

The project had an intense 12-month schedule for design and construction, with only three months for build-out of 94 guest rooms and all public spaces.

There was also extensive cataloging of historically significant details for re-use in other areas of preservation and storage.

How did you resolve it?

The team worked together on every aspect of the project. Page flips were conducted at every stage to ensure the decision-making process was on track.

The architecture team cataloged every historically significant item; some were sent out for repair and re-use and others were preserved and stored.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

The refreshed design is layered and collected. Period pieces throughout the hotel will bring guests back to the glory of the Aspen silver mining days, while ensuring that the Hotel Jerome remains fashionable and relevant for modern travelers.

commercial under 7,000 square feet OtterBox

Dawn Oglesby, Allied ASID Oglesby Design What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

The client wanted the feel of higher ceilings; the existing space had shallow floor-to-floor plate heights, which, allowing for added required mechanical plenum space, left most areas with only eight-foot potential ceiling heights.

How did you resolve it?

Our design strategy was to provide height in some of the key areas and vertical variation to create the feeling of height in other areas. Special attention was given to the entry area to create a grand first impression.

commercial, between 7,000-15,000 square feet Private Hangar

Dawn Oglesby, Allied ASID Oglesby Design What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

The hangar is truly one of a kind. We visited and researched many other company hangers, none of which were what the client envisioned.

How did you resolve it?

We used 3D Max software. It was very helpful for making sure that the ‘feel’ that the owner wanted in this space was achieved.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

How the interior interacts on each of the three levels with the huge expanse of butt glazing; the way the interior of the office space interacts with the exterior, especially of the mountains and runway.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

This was once a dark, closed-in office with low grid ceilings and walls that blocked views to the exterior. Removing walls and creating key ceiling features allows the space to breathe and engages a positive interaction with the end user.

Brent Mather | Gensler What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

The art was the biggest challenge; the new space includes vastly more opportunities to display art in both quantity and scale. In addition to this, working with the partners to determine which pieces went where, and their creative differences added to the challenges.

How did you resolve it?

In some ways, the challenge is ongoing. There are a few key gallery areas that require signature pieces that our client is still in the process of selecting. We worked with the client to assist in selecting and locating their existing art collection. In concept, a law firm as art gallery seemed so simple, but in reality was a much bigger challenge.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

The form, light and volume are our favorite aspects of the project. Law firms are typically defined by conventional attributes, especially conservative, stately finishes. Our design team and the client embraced this new concept, which focuses on form, volume and light rather than materiality.

Belmar Endodontics Lynne Thom, AIA Lynne Thom Architects What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

To create an energy-and-budget-efficient office for a dentist, reflecting the culmination of many years of preferences for the practitioner.

How did you resolve it?

By using more recyclable materials, including less gypsum board and more glass for high partitions; floor tiles and carpet with recycled and recyclable content; re-use of existing materials in the space, such as the cherrywood doors and window blinds.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

Re-purposing the space for a very different use, resulting in a more than satisfactory solution for the client.

How did you resolve it?

The problem was solved using a hybrid insulation solution.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

The intersecting of the campus brings students to the center—and creates a living room zone where student interaction is heightened.

Additionally, creating flexible dining spaces within the spectrum of retail to residential was an exciting challenge with delightful results for both the student population and the community.

commercial design element Project Angel Heart

Tony Deagan | Sink Combs Dethlefs What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

The goal was to convert a dark, dingy refrigerator warehouse into a warm, inviting space that reflects the importance of Project Angel Heart’s mission—to prepare and deliver individually appropriate nutritious meals to community members coping with life-threatening illness.

How did you resolve it?

The plan was organized to maximize the sense of activity and ensure views into multiple spaces from significant areas. The new facility is professional with a fun and energized atmosphere.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

An awesome client who encouraged creativity and unique ways to show donor appreciation.

The lobby wall, constructed by the architect, recognizes benefactors with whimsical spoon plaques on a wall of 359 repurposed milk crates, which were rescued en route to a landfill.

student design

Denver Children’s Home Leslie Fenner and Kayla Biers RMCAD student project What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

Understanding the trauma experienced by these children and what interior architecture, color, materials selected and natural lighting can do to alleviate it. Our goal was to create a calming, inviting environment.

How did you resolve it?

On the advice of former therapists from Denver Children’s Home, we brought in natural light wherever possible. Additionally, specific thought was given to what the residents might need and how to transform an institutional setting into a home.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

The atrium, which we called the ‘column of light,’ that brought natural light throughout the building.

Megan Moore | Swiss Milk Studio What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

Creating a warm, rustic interior within a home with extremely clean, modern architecture. The challenge was about bringing in rustic qualities that still related to the original design of the space.

How did you resolve it?

By using reclaimed wood and natural materials in a clean, modern application. Millwork was added throughout the home, which created warmth while still honoring the original intentions of the architect.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

The millwork added to the west wall of the living room and slits that allowed sunlight to enter the home created a beautiful focal point and interesting daylight patterns.

Mental Health Center of Denver Janette Ray | Davis Partnership What was the most difficult challenge of this project?

The renovation of a 1960s-era 72,000-square-foot hospital to consolidate patients and staff from four remote mental health facilities. This existing hospitalbased health facility was remodeled into Colorado’s largest mental health care treatment facility.

How did you resolve it?

The interiors team worked with the client to develop a residential environment to alleviate anxiety for patients with mental illness. The design included soft colors, plentiful natural light and generous natural materials.

What was your favorite aspect of the project?

All finishes and details were based on the LEED point system, in order to adhere to the project’s LEED Platinum rating. These included low-VOC wall finishes, environmentally-friendly flooring, recycled materials and special lighting all coordinated by the interior design team.

Urban Nature For the 14th year, Colorado Homes & Lifestyles is proud to be the print media sponsor of the Cherry Creek Arts Festival. Once again, we’ve asked our friends Scott and Annie Huston, owners of Columbine Design and Birdsall & Co., to turn our booth into an “Outdoor Oasis,” inspired by the work of a CCAF artist. Here’s how this year’s artwork guided these talented designers

The inspiration: Bubinga Panels #1 and #2 by Sean Gillespie, Fine Art Woodworking, Denver Booth #78

“I WAS INSPIRED BY THE TRANSFORMATION OF A PIECE OF WOOD

from a raw, basic material into a highly-finished and -designed piece of sculpture,” says designer Annie Huston, speaking of woodworker Sean Gillespie’s Bubinga Panels #1 and #2, the artwork that would guide the design of our “Outdoor Oasis” booth at the 14th annual Cherry Creek Arts Festival. For Huston, who with husband Scott owns landscaping firm Columbine Design and Birdsall & Co., a luxe garden center in Denver, Gillespie’s piece spurred a strong emotional reaction. It immediately had her thinking about an oasis in the middle of the city. “The material feels as intrinsic to the middle of a forest as it does to an urban loft in downtown Denver,” she says.

“One way to introduce a biophilic experience in our urban environment is to duplicate nature’s forms and functions into our living spaces. Small vignettes are sufficient to indulge in our attraction to all things natural.

While it’s easier to enjoy nature if we have the luxury of a large landscape 86

COLORADOHOMESMAG.COM

or garden, a smaller-scale ‘Urban Nature’ space forces us to really pay attention to each detail. Urban dwellers living in high rises or townhomes can still have the water, stone, fire and plant elements found in the natural world. It is the quality of the elements that matter, not the size, just as a Keshiki miniature landscape evokes a grand vista.”

Huston hopes that the design of the CH&L booth gives festival-goers some ideas on how to incorporate natural elements into small city spaces.

“Just as we bring in the wooden piece of art instead of a large tree, we can have the luxury of a miniature water feature, a small-scale fire element and wildflowers planted in containers.”

We hope our booth inspires you to incorporate a little nature into your urban space. As Huston reminds us, “What is surrounding us in the city can be gray and grim. It is in our power to transform our environment in a subtle, humble and personal way: make it a piece of art.”

Home on the Range Devil’s Thumb Ranch’s Executive Chef Evan Treadwell brings his own style of contemporary, ranch-to-table cuisine with his beer-paired dinners

BY DE SCHOFELD

IT MAY NOT BE POSSIBLE TO IMPROVE UPON NATURE,

but Evan Treadwell, Executive Chef of Tabernash’s Devil’s Thumb Ranch & Spa, comes close. A thread of sustainability weaves throughout Treadwell’s innovative dishes, all of which bear the hallmarks of his near-35-year career building a repertoire of finely-honed skills, carefully-cultivated professional relationships, and a refined sensibility working with local, sustainable sources.

“I was impressed with and intrigued by what Devil’s Thumb owners Bob and Suzanne Fanch were doing, as well as what they envisioned for this incredible property,” Treadwell says.

Devil’s Thumb’s ranking as one of Travel + Leisure magazine’s Top Eco-Friendly Resorts worldwide and the property’s long list of environmentally-responsible practices dovetailed nicely with Treadwell’s own earth-conscious philosophy. And since Treadwell came on board in June of 2011, the ranch has

supported his initiatives, such as a recent venture to raise its own purebred Wagyu cattle—the first phase of the resort’s comprehensive pasture-to-plate program.

Taking advantage of the region’s vast array of microbreweries, Treadwell has dreamed up innovative food pairings with local and regional beers and now hosts beer-paired dinners at the ranch.

“It’s a creative process of identifying what I’m tasting in the beer and what works to both complement and counter those nuances to elevate the dish.”

Beer is actually more versatile than wine in food pairing, Chef Treadwell attests. “The fat or butter richness in a dish can stand up to the hoppiness of the brew,” he explains. “Salmon is a fatty fish, and smoking it adds a toastiness which pairs with the carmelly aspect of the beer, while toasty, citrusy flavors complement the wheatiness of the brew.”

Treadwell, a native Californian and firm believer in sustainability as a core value, has transcended the farm-to-table movement to become his own force in the industry. “The essence of California cuisine was just an attempt to do something fresh and simple,” he says. “The key is sourcing and understanding what’s in your local and regional environment. Once you have that matrix, you can go almost anywhere and achieve the highest quality possible.”

Slow-Braised Pork Shoulder with Spicy Greens and Andouille Grits Beer Pairing: G’Knight Imperial Red IPA Oskar Blues Brewery, Longmont, Colorado 4 Servings Brine 1 pint water 1 cup salt 1 /2 cup sugar 1 tablespoon black peppercorns 4 bay leaves 1 /4 cup fresh sage leaves, sliced julienne 1 orange, halved 1 lemon, halved 8 garlic cloves, peeled and minced 1 quart (4 cups) Oskar Blues G’knight Imperial Red IPA (chilled) 2 1/2 pounds pork roast from shoulder 4 Andouille Grit Cakes (recipe follows) Braised Greens (recipe follows)

COLORADOHOMESMAG.COM

Make the brine: In a large pot, add the water, salt, peppercorns, sugar, bay leaves, sage, orange, lemon, garlic clove. Bring to a boil; stir and remove from heat; cool until room temperature. Add the cold beer and chill.

Place the pork shoulder in a deep container that will hold the brine and the pork (approximately a 4-quart container).

Pour brine over the pork; add more beer if needed to cover completely and place a plate over the pork to submerge it so it is completely covered with brine.

Brine for at least four hours or overnight.

Remove the pork from brine onto a large plate and let cure for four more hours in the refrigerator uncovered.

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Line a sheet pan or casserole dish with aluminum foil and place roasting rack on top. Place pork in the center of the rack and cook for 2-3 hours until tender. Pour drippings into measuring cup to reserve and let the roast cool.

In a small saucepan, heat the reserved drippings over medium heat with a little water to make a sauce, allowing to gently boil down until it coats the back of a spoon. Season to taste. Add up to 1 pint chicken stock if sauce becomes too thick.

To serve, carefully slice the pork shoulder into 6-ounce steaks. Warm a large nonstick pan to medium heat and sear each side of the pork steaks for 2-3 minutes until heated through and tender, being careful not to let the steak fall apart when transferring to a serving plate.

Place a warmed grit cake in the center of the plate, top with some braised greens and place a pork steak on top of the greens. Top with a few tablespoons of sauce.

Andouille Grit Cakes 1 /4 cup quick-cooking grits 1 tablespoon butter 1 /2 cup Andouille sausage, cooked and crumbled 1 /2 cup fontina cheese, grated 3 eggs, lightly beaten 1 /2 cup bread crumbs, mixed with 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon oil In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil and whisk in grits and butter; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, just until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in sausage and cheese and cook three minutes more. Pour grits into a buttered pie pan, no more than a 1/2-inch thick. Set aside to cool, then firm up in refrigerator for 1 hour.

Using a 2-inch cookie cutter, cut out 4 cakes.

Dredge grit cakes in eggs and dip into bread crumbs. Heat oil to medium heat in a skillet, add grit cakes and pan fry, turning until browned on both sides and warmed through.

Braised Greens 2 tablespoons canola oil 1 pound fresh spinach, stems removed, roughly chopped 1 /2 cup white wine 2 tablespoons butter Salt and black pepper to taste 1 pinch red chili flakes Heat a 12-inch skillet to high heat. Add oil; let heat for 5 seconds, then add spinach and stir with a large wooden spoon for 30 more seconds. Add white wine and stir for 1 minute more until leaves are wilted. Finish with butter, salt, pepper and chili flakes. Keep warm in a small casserole dish until ready to plate.

Make the brine: Pour water into a large saucepan; add salt and sugar and heat over medium to high heat until dissolved. Set aside to cool, then chill in the refrigerator. While the brine is chilling, prepare the salmon.

Check the salmon flesh for any bones and remove them; cut the salmon filet into four 3-to4-ounce pieces (or ask your butcher to do this for you).

Layer the salmon in the chilled brine and ensure that the pieces are completely immersed.

Brine in the refrigerator for one hour.

Remove the salmon from the brine, rinse under cold water and place to dry on a roasting rack; place rack with salmon in the refrigerator for four hours.

Smoke the salmon: Using a smoker, start a low fire in the smoke box and add some pre-soaked wood chips. Place the salmon in smoker. Gently bring the temperature up to 175 degrees F over a period of about 30 minutes and then smoke for another 20 minutes. Remove salmon from smoker and serve warm.

Make the salad: Place mixed greens in a medium bowl and add in toasted hazelnuts and shaved fennel; toss lightly with Lemon Vinaigrette.

To serve, use a small (6-inch) salad plate. Place approximately 1 cup of salad in the middle of the plate. Add the smoked salmon piece on salad and top with a dollop of Mustard Crème Fraiche.

Lemon Vinaigrette 1 cup olive oil 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1 tablespoon minced shallot 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard 1 /2 teaspoon grated lemon peel 1 /2 teaspoon sugar

Our Favorite Room

Simply Grand

BY JAMIE SIEBRASE PHOTOGRAPHY BY DAVID PATTERSON

This warm, Mediterranean-style retreat is a nostalgic nod to those bygone days of face-to-face conversation “I LOVE ANYTHING ELEGANT,” says the owner of a Greenwood Village patio that’s so grand it feels as if you’ve landed on the set of an old Hollywood movie. “It’s a tribute to a time when there was a sense of style, when people sat and had conversations,” the homeowner explains. “I want our guests to feel like they’ve gone somewhere.”

In a sense, they have. An avid traveler and longtime opera singer, the homeowner melded various regions and periods to achieve an eclectic, Old-World ambiance inspired by elaborate Eastern palaces, European culture, and the rip-roaring ‘20s.

Under a canopy of shade provided by a towering ash tree, refined Italian porcelain tile serves as the foundation for a rich array of textures and colors—like those you might find in elaborate opera sets. Stately Woodard wrought-iron furniture—a loveseat, chairs and ottoman with lion’s-head and claw-foot detailing in the sitting area, and dignified dining chairs and table in a separate dining space—lend an air of drama.

Botanical accents soften the hard surfaces and add a lively counterpoint to the mellow Mediterranean gold tones. Plant-embellished pillows and ceramics, along with topiaries and flowering urns, are placed among the furnishings to add a fresh, colorful note to the restful setting. The graceful result is alfresco perfecto.
