H ow do you choose an architect or interior designer?

When you think about it, you’re asking this person to take on
a very personal task. You’re asking him or her to create your
home, that one place that reflects you—who you are, what
you love, the way you choose to spend your time. It’s funny
that we so often hire someone else to take on such a personal
endeavor. Maybe that’s why it’s so magical when the person we
choose creates a space that is so “us” in every way.

PHOTO BY DEBORAH COTA

So how do you find that person? Sure, you can create a list
of questions a mile long—and get great answers to them all—
and gather piles of references and recommendations, but when
it comes down to it, isn’t it really a gut feeling?
I’ve looked at thousands of homes over the years, and while
I’ve seen many designs I’ve loved, there are a special few that stand out in my mind;
places where I can imagine living every day. It wasn’t just the setting or the finishes or
furnishings that appealed to me. It was something less tangible. I felt that if I were to
meet the architect or designer who created the space, he or she would really “get”
me—and my idea of home.
It seems that I’m not alone. For the past five years, we’ve published an annual list
of Top Mountain Architects & Interior Designers, and every year we hear from many of
you who visit the website of each and every firm on that list. You pore over thousands
of photos until you find that architect or interior designer whose work speaks to you.
And that’s the person you hire.
In this issue, we’re proud to present the fifth edition of Top Mountain Architects &
Interior Designers, our exclusive guide to the design pros we’ve featured in the pages
of Mountain Living over the years—as well as those whose work we know and admire.
But this issue is about more than a list. It’s about celebrating all of the design pro-
fessionals who have taken the time to really understand us; to get at what makes us
tick, give it form and bring it to life. It’s magic, indeed.

Best wishes,

EXPERT Q&A

KELLY & STONE ARCHITECTS, INC.
KELLY & STONE ARCHITECTS, INC.
GET TO KNOW
KELLY & STONE ARCHITECTS, INC.
CLIENTS COME TO YOU FOR... Our talent and expertise in the realm of
sustainable, sculptural commercial and residential design, as well as our
undying commitment to providing impeccable service.
YOUR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY IS... To create responsible, sculptural and
inspirational design even after utility, budget, building code and site
restraints have exerted their influences.
YOUR STYLE IS INFLUENCED BY... Our climate. Designing custom
homes and commercial projects in the mountains of the West presents
several design challenges that influence our work. We are also committed
to using materials that can be expressed in their natural form, including
stone, glass, steel and timber.
THE MOST INSPIRING THING YOU’VE SEEN LATELY IS... A short profile
on the work of Peter Bohlin, a profoundly talented architect who has
really influenced our work.
EVERY HOME MUST HAVE... A sense of place. This not-so-tangible
component of a successful design is paramount to good architecture.
SHARE WITH US ONE OF YOUR GO-TO DESIGN RESOURCES.
We often specify products by Montrose, Colorado-based Recla Metals for
roofing and siding. They carry a variety of corrugated-steel and weathered
galvanized products.
MAKE A DESIGN PREDICTION. As resources become increasingly scarce
and more expensive, I predict that our clientele will be moving in the
direction of smaller, higher quality, more sustainable projects.

2. PARAGON OUTFITTERS/FURTHER ADVENTURES
This trio of shops, located in town and up at Mountain Village,
are the go-to venues for gearing up to get outside, whether
you’re into mountain biking, rafting, fly-fishing, biking or
hiking in Telluride’s magnificent outdoors.
furtheradventures.com, 970-728-8954
3. AH HAA SCHOOL FOR THE ARTS Get creative with a
photography, ceramics, metalwork or jewelry workshop at this
year-round community arts center (ahhaa.org). But that’s not
where Telluride’s arts culture stops: check out the NUGGET
THEATRE (nuggettheatre.com)—home of the Telluride Film
Festival and Mountainfilm festival—and the SHERIDAN OPERA
HOUSE (sheridanoperahouse.com), too.
4. DAKOTA HOME FURNISHINGS Accessorizing a mountain
home couldn’t be easier when you shop at this appealing
boutique, which carries everything from the Alpine Stag
dinnerware collection to rustic antique furniture to Italian bath
sets. It’s a good bet for lighting, linens and gifty things, too.
dakotatelluride.com, 970-728-4204
5. GARDENSTORE This peaceful, modern shop with
wide-plank floors and pale green walls is the place to find
unique garden accessories like colorful “upcycled” benches,
planters and pottery, as well as scented candles and garden
tools. You’ll find fresh flowers, too, as well as year-round
inspiration for theme parties. 970-728-0534
more Find more of our favorites at mountainliving.com.

top-notch guestrooms (including suites and one-, two- and
three-bedroom condominium residences), as well as a full spa
and mountain-chic dining at Suede Bar and Onyx restaurant.
Personal assistants ensure that you won’t lack for anything.

7. COSMOPOLITAN Long-time local chef Chad Scothorn’s
stylish restaurant in Hotel Columbia draws a loyal crowd that
keeps coming back for his creative flavors and presentations.
Lobster corn dogs, slow-roasted Berkshire pork, tomato-saffron
fish stew and apple-pie donuts are favorites. Looking for a local
spot to host a private party? The rustic Tasting Cellar might be
the perfect place. cosmotelluride.com, 970-728-1292
8. ALLRED’S This classy restaurant’s views of town and the
surrounding peaks create a dramatic backdrop for chef Mike
Weist’s menu of sustainable meat (beef, buffalo, lamb, elk) and
seafood (salmon, trout) dishes. Book a table by the windows or
try the chef’s table to keep an eye on the open kitchen.

the shake instead of just being applied to the surface like some roofing products.
A new CE DUR roof will actually age to the correct color within a few weeks of
installation and then remain colorfast over its lifetime. CE DUR is available in a
wide variety of realistic natural wood colors and can be blended to create a
roof unique to your home.

Learn more online.
CE DUR’s aesthetic qualities are so impressive, your neighbors may suspect www.cedurshake.com
that you chose real wood shake.

Not pictured: Tom Harmon, Dawn Crane
The Summit County Builders Association is pleased to welcome
you to the 16th annual Summit County Parade of Homes.
While the difficult economy has created challenges across the
globe, our mountain region continues to stand strong and move
forward. This year’s Parade features a greater variety of housing
options, including multi-family dwellings, remodels, net-zero-
energy homes, budget-conscious construction and yes, some
over-the-top residences as well.
All proceeds from the Parade’s ticket sales benefit The Sum-
mit Foundation, a community organization that provides ongo-
ing support to local organizations, nonprofits and programs.
Each ticket sale enables the organization to continue its support
of vital community endeavors, and we appreciate your contribu-
tions to this great community supporter.
Tickets for this year’s event will be sold at the City Markets in
Breckenridge and Dillon, and tickets may be traded in for wrist
bands at any of the homes on the tour.
We owe a very special thanks to our sponsors, including our
Diamond Sponsor, Breckenridge Building Center. Corporate
sponsors include Mountain Comfort Furnishings, Bank of the
West and RJB Development. Their generosity goes a long way
toward making this event possible.
Finally, a sincere thank you goes out to all the Parade Com-
mittee members whose time, effort and ideas have made this a
great event. We hope you enjoy this year’s Parade of Homes!

16 CONTRACTOR MOUNTAIN LOG HOMES OF COLORADO, INC.
BRECKENRIDGE
DESCRIPTION
While searching for a site on which to build their
mountain home, Kansas City residents Lynn and
Doug found this wooded lot close to the town of
Breckenridge. And after meeting the staff at Mountain
Log Homes of Colorado, they knew they had found
the right team to make their dream home a reality.
The couple fell in love with Pioneer Log Homes of
British Columbia’s large, handcrafted Western red
cedar logs and decided to incorporate them into their
home’s design. Breathe in and look up as you tour
this home to appreciate the aroma and beauty of
these extraordinary logs.
Doug also wanted central gathering spaces for
family reunions with the couple’s three grown children,
outdoor living space where they could enjoy their Ten
Mile Range views, and lots of room for the family to
cook and enjoy meals together. Kitchenscapes helped
the couple design a gourmet kitchen with a large
central island.
Light and fresh air were also priorities for the
homeowners. They got both with a large wall of
low-E windows in the great room, as well as operable
windows thoughtfully positioned throughout the home
to ensure good airflow. Strategically placed task and
mood lighting highlight the unique log features, while
four fireplaces—including a wood burner for log-cabin
authenticity—provide warmth during the cold winters.
Each of this home’s bedroom suites has a unique
theme. The bunkroom, which sleeps six, features
genuine multicolored Pendleton blankets and animal-
themed lighting. The natural stone on the fireplaces

In Perfect Harmony
OPPOSITES ATTRACT—RUSTIC AND REFINED, MASCULINE AND FEMININE—IN A
LARGER-THAN-LIFE HOME ON THE SHORES OF MONTANA’S WHITEFISH LAKE

To keep the focus on the spectacular views of Whitefish Lake, interior designer Hunter Dominick kept things simple in this out-
door dining area. OPPOSITE: A 28-foot-tall fireplace is the undisputed star of the great room. “You have to stand in front of it to
really get a sense of the scale,” says residential designer Lyndon Steinmetz. “The firebox alone is 5½ feet tall; a person could
walk right into it.” Because some of the stones used weigh more than two tons, they had to be lowered into place by a crane.

TIMBER FRAMING CENTENNIAL TIMBER FRAMES

The home is called “Tetelestai,” and appropriately so. Of Greek origin, the word translates to
“it is finished,” and according to the owner of this Montana residence, completing the 10,000-
square-foot home was no small feat. But thanks to the superb synergy among its design team,
the lakeside retreat is finished—and as spectacular as its mountain backdrop.
Key to the success of this project was the owners’ clear vision. After narrowing their list of po-
tential architects to two firms, they asked the finalists to draft proposals. In the end, Lyndon Stein-
metz of Kalispell, Montana-based Lyndon L. Steinmetz Design was the winner of the mini design
competition—in part, says his client, because “he could complete our sentences. When taking on
a project of this scope, it’s important that you’re communicating; that you have the same ideas.”
Set on the shores of Whitefish Lake, the homesite was “very desirable, but tight,” says Stein-
metz. “It’s only about 100 feet wide, hemmed in on the north by mountains and by an existing
house and pond on the sides.” Steinmetz also had to contend with a vertical constraint, as
local building codes specify a 35-foot vertical limit. “[The client] was looking for something >>

shapes. Then, explains Joe Hill of Rocky Mountain Builders, the new “timbers”
were laminated with alder and aged to achieve the look of reclaimed wood.

partially timber framed,” says Steinmetz. “He wanted to use

timbers and native materials while varying the roof pitches,
much like you see in old mining buildings around here.”
To satisfy the homeowners’ desire for a home that ap-
peared old beyond its years, Steinmetz selected stone of
varying shapes and sizes to clad the walls. Then the search
for reclaimed timbers began. But because of the home’s
large scale, the right sizes just weren’t to be found. So Stein-
metz turned to timber framer Sandy Koness of Centennial
Timber Frames, who set about creating customized timbers
for the project. Starting with new Douglas fir logs, she
roughed up the edges, made marks with braces and bits, and
even added and removed bolts and washers. To add an in-
stant patina, she applied ferrous sulfate, which reacted with
the wood to give the timbers a weathered gray tone.
When interior designer Hunter Dominick joined the col-
laboration, she worked with the homeowners to create re-
freshingly unexpected interiors that juxtapose rustic with
refined, masculine with feminine. In fact, what started as a
simple search for fabrics in Dominick’s Whitefish showroom
evolved into the designer’s involvement in every aspect of the
project. “[The homeowner] brought in photos of her former
home in California so I could get a sense of their style and, like
they say, a picture is worth a thousand words,” says Dominick.
Because the owners were virtually starting from scratch,
Dominick had the luxury of working with a clean slate. Still,
there were some definite must-haves. For one, the owners
wanted to infuse the rustic home with some formality. >>

129
 The grandeur of stonework, timber framing and exceptional lighting is found both indoors and out, evidenced in this fireside seating area.
OPPOSITE: Characterized by an enormous amount of rock—more than 1,100 tons—and large-scale timbers, this residence seems to or-
ganically grow out of the landscape. To add to the effect, the structure’s stone face was slightly tapered. “The stone walls slope 1 de-
gree out from the building from the top to the bottom,” explains Steinmetz. “The stone needed to be at least 4 inches thick at the very
top of the walls, so as we sloped down, we increased the thickness to almost 16 inches wide at the ground. The result is a massively
thick wall around the first floor doors and living room and great room windows. I think this really added to the home’s overall appeal.”

130
That request is fulfilled beautifully in the great room, where a luxe leather sofa and gold-leafed side table face a towering stone
fireplace flanked by oversized hickory chairs. In the dining room, chairs upholstered with a lush cinnamon-hued velvet seem
perfectly at home next to a rustic window wall and rough-hewn ceiling beams.
The home’s predominantly gold-and-copper color palette, inspired by Italy’s sun-drenched landscapes, infuses each space
with warmth, even in the cold of winter. To add visual interest, Dominick chose a layering of textures: from sparkling glass tile
to embroidered silk fabric, smooth granite countertops to grasscloth-covered walls, there’s a surprise for the eye at every turn.
But surprises are what this home is all about. Straightforward architecture is paired with intricately detailed interiors. Mas-
culine elements stand comfortably next to pieces with feminine flair. It’s a rustic-meets-refined point of view that, instead of
coming off as contradictory, creates a home balanced in perfect harmony. ●

Forming a contemporary X shape, the Krmpotichs’ home makes a bold statement
in the traditional town of Casper, Wyoming. Maintaining a low profile, the home is ex-
pertly nestled into the base of a hill. Its careful siting offers protection from the gust-
ing wind and allows the structure to blend in with the surrounding landscape. Sloping
roof lines at varying heights soften the design and mimic the gently rolling hills.

 The Factor
IN A WYOMING TOWN WHERE TRADITION REIGNS,
A MODERN DWELLING DRAWS ATTENTION

In the rolling hills of Casper, Wyoming, where wildlife sightings are

commonplace and nature buffs are drawn to the raw beauty of the landscape,
an architectural anomaly draws attention. Home to a local physician and his
family, the decidedly modern residence makes a bold statement in a town
where the predilection is toward traditional designs in neat, predictable
neighborhoods.
“When we decided to build a new home on the outskirts of town, we were
open to the architectural possibilities that varied from our traditional roots,”
says homeowner Phil Krmpotich. “We wanted to do something a little bit
different. When we discovered the Midcentury-Modern style, we liked how
it worked with the mountain landscape.”
The design’s original two-story façade was quickly edited to a single story
to contend with the harsh Wyoming climate. Bitter temperatures, unrelent-
ing snowfalls and a biting wind that can gust in excess of 60 miles per hour
all combined to create a unique design challenge. >>

A contemporary work of art, the kitchen features a stainless-steel countertop and cherry cabinets that expertly hide
appliances and complement the home’s design. OPPOSITE: At the central point where the structure’s two wings meet, the
architects designed a playful central node with three “spots” of light. Taking inspiration from the architectural detail, interior
designer Nina Seirafi created an impromptu gallery, placing three solid petrified wood spheres in the middle of the walking space.

ARCHITECTURE ABRAMSON TEIGER ARCHITECTS INTERIOR DESIGN NINA SEIRAFI INTERIOR DESIGN

134
 Considering these formidable forces of nature, Abramson Teiger Architects of Culver City, Cali-
fornia, created a design plan that worked in concert with the surroundings and addressed the Krm-
potichs’ desire for a decidedly different design. In response to the site’s challenges, the architects
designed a low-slung structure anchored in concrete, steel and wood that clings to the base of a hill-
side. Forming a contemporary X shape, the home has gracefully elongated wings that stretch into the
countryside. “The design plan we created translated into a beautiful composition,” says Douglas
Teiger, AIA, managing principal of the firm. “The unconventional shape of the house allowed for dif-
ferent views from every room while also creating a very functional living space with private and pub-
lic wings that are connected by a family playroom at the junction.”
The home’s unique footprint not only creates an aesthetically pleasing design but also serves as a
calculated answer to nature’s wrath. As the gusting wind crests the hill behind the home, it plummets
down and across the rooftop. The arc-like, aerodynamic shape of the roof channels the wind, shield-
ing the structure from the forceful gales.
On the home’s exterior, concrete, steel, wood and glass add texture, accenting the structure’s slop-
ing wings. Thick concrete walls extend up from the ground to a 10-foot-high baseline. Above this visual
break are horizontal bands of redwood that add warmth and a Western quality to the modern home—
as well as a striking contrast to the cool, industrial concrete. Inside, the baseline continues through the
use of similar materials, transitioning seamlessly from exterior to interior. >>

135
 Walls of windows further the home’s connection with its surroundings. “Most of the
homes we design in Southern California have a strong indoor/outdoor interaction,” says
Trevor Abramson, FAIA, design principal of the firm. “We wanted to bring that Califor-
nia feeling to this home by highlighting its physical connection to the land.” Because
the harsh climate prohibits large windows that open to let the breezes in, the architects
opted for expansive inoperable windows designed to withstand strong wind gusts while
still capturing “the beautiful quality of light and picturesque view,” says Abramson.
With its strong connection to the land and thoughtful detail, the home embraces
the fundamentals of understated modern elegance. Inside, handpicked furnishings
and artistic embellishments are the perfect complement to the home’s strong, archi-
tectural lines. Bold pops of color add interest and a touch of warmth that channels
the family’s traditional roots but stays true to the feel of a modern mountain dwelling.
A topic of conversation in Casper from the start, this home seems to be changing
some preconceived notions about modern design. “In the beginning, the challenge was
building a contemporary house in a town where all of the craftsmen were skilled in tra-
ditional design,” Teiger explains. “But, as the project progressed, these craftsmen really
put their hearts and souls into it, creating a home that transcends the perception of the
unconventional modern home, and rooting it in the traditional Wyoming landscape.” ●

136
“When we first met, [homeowner Jamie Krmpotich] had a clear plan for the
design,” Seirafi explains. “She wanted to keep the modern language of the house
while incorporating the functionality of a traditional home. Not willing to com-
promise on comfort and luxury, we embraced her vision and added character
through an eclectic mix of pieces that evoke different vibes in different rooms.”

137
 MODERN BY DESIGN
When it comes to accessorizing modern spaces, many homeowners struggle to achieve a clean, modern
look that still feels livable and warm, often going to extremes with a bland color scheme and severe fur-
nishings that make a space uninviting and austere. Interior designer Nina Seirafi offers a few words of ad-
vice for those looking to strike the balance between comfort and modern style:
CREATE A DESIGN PLAN “Before you begin the design process, consider how you are going to use the
space and how your family functions in that space.” A room that functions well is naturally comfortable.

KNOW YOUR LIKES AND DISLIKES “With a firm plan in hand, begin picking items based on the char-
acter of each family member. Be careful to only use those materials and colors that you respond to.”

UNDERSTAND YOUR ENVIRONMENT “The colors of nature, as well as the function of a room, often
precipitate the color palette. In a home with expansive openings, it’s especially important to select a palette
that reflects nature to alleviate tension between indoors and out. In an arid landscape, reflective materials
are a necessity; they help create a pleasing flow inside the space. The materials you choose should also
respond to your surroundings. In the Krmpotichs’ home, we shied away from coarse materials, like wool,
because we wanted to soften the contours of the interior in contrast to the harsh environment.”

GO ORGANIC “To suggest movement, which is especially important in a dry mountain landscape where
things tend to be static, use contrasting proportions of the same shape.”

FINISH WITH ART AND ACCESSORIES “Adding a variety of artistic embellishments brings the room
to the next level. A space that is only accented by modern pieces often loses its appeal, whereas a space
with both contemporary and vintage elements creates excitement and a unique complementary quality.”

 “The space is defined by a number
of objects that soften the modern edge
and bring a livable feel to the home.” — Nina Seirafi

In the serene master bedroom, a solid satinwood bed, decidedly understated and modern, complements the
vintage furnishings. Luxe textures and silver hues—accented with pops of purple—give the room a sensual feel.
OPPOSITE: The master bathroom’s oblong tub appears shallow but actually sinks 8 inches into the base of
its platform. Two cantilevered double-sided mirrors seemingly disappear into the natural expanse beyond.

PIECES OF
HISTORY

ARCHITECT IRA MARTIN HAS AN EYE FOR MATERIALS.

Not the latest, sleekest fabrications, but old reclaimed materials
that are full of history and character.
Martin and his team at the Texas-based design-build firm
Tony Martin Inc.—started by Ira’s father, Tony—comb the
country in search of those perfectly imperfect buildings that
have been worn, grayed and weathered over time. Then they
carefully dismantle the old and reincarnate the bones into
something beautiful and new.
One of these transformations took place in the hills near St.
Helena, California, where Martin recently created an array of
dwellings. Comprised of a 2,000-square-foot main house, a de-
tached study and three 1,100-square-foot guesthouses, the fam-
ily compound was pieced together using reclaimed materials
sourced from all over the country. The flooring was found in a
1950s sewing factory. The hand-hewn beams come from the
Ohio River Valley and date back to the mid-1800s. And the stone
Martin discovered in an old Pony Express outpost in Indian Gap,
Texas—a place so small, it’s really nothing more than a few
buildings. “It’s just a sign, not even a town,” Martin says. >>

140
 In the great room of the main house, the kitchen, dining and
surrounding living areas—all crafted from materials re-
claimed from dismantled old buildings—flow together in a
smart floorplan. Architect Ira Martin describes it as “individual
spaces that can feel open but intimate.” Oversized warehouse-
style shelves in the dining area help define the space while
maintaining that open feel, and a custom light fixture and vent
hood, both designed by Martin, add a distinctive touch.

The main house (on the far side of the pool), one of the guesthouses (to the right) and the
pool itself all share a similar footprint, which Martin describes as “simple, straightforward
and not too fancy.” Other design elements, including the chimneys and door openings,
were also modeled after this shape. OPPOSITE: A large steel-clad fireplace, which takes
center stage in the entry to the main house, was inspired by a bit of European history: “If
you’d walk into a home in old Italy, you’d see the grandmother coming and going all day,
stoking the fire to keep the house warm,” Martin says. “It really was the centerpiece.”

 As Martin passed through the town one day, a simple structure caught his eye. Its hand-sawn
stone exterior fit together so well that it appeared to be one smooth surface. “It had developed what
I call a French palette—that bluish, gray-green patina,” he says. “You know, you can’t buy that.”
That striking stone, which now covers the main house’s façade, would provide the inspiration for
the dwelling’s entire materials palette—the grayish floors left unsanded, the off-white plaster walls.
To create an interior scheme that would complement these architectural materials, Martin teamed
up with homeowner Shea Kos, who had a clear vision for the space.
Kos hoped to achieve a sophisticated industrial look; a blend of delicate lines and rugged mate-
rials. The industrial component is evident in the rustic unfinished stone and beams on display in the
main residence’s great room, and in the exposed concrete walls in the master suites’ spa-like
bathrooms. You can see it in the warehouse-style shelving in the great room—oversized to match the
materials’ scale—and in the entry’s steel-clad fireplace. >>

 A collection of furnishings, amassed by Kos over the course of several years—and several
trips to Europe—mix with some surprisingly delicate touches to add an air of sophistication
to the otherwise rugged, masculine space. Thinly framed steel windows and doors add ele-
gance, and exposed plumbing in the bathrooms balances the concrete walls. In the great room,
a custom light fixture and dramatic vent hood, both designed by Martin, complete the space.
Martin’s approach to reclaiming the past may not be the fastest, most efficient
method. In fact, the team only works on two or three projects at a time. But it’s all by
design. They understand that there’s a beautiful balance and proportion to be found in
history—and that achieving it often requires a look back before moving forward.
“Old buildings are really proportionate,” explains Martin. “They have that old farm-
house look because they were simple to build.” And because construction was so straight-
forward, he says, “you could focus on the materials.”
Martin and his team aim to work with homeowners who are as passionate about the
process as they are, and who they hope will keep the structures in the family for poster-
ity’s sake. “We create these legacy estates for people so they can enjoy them with their
families,” he says, “then hand them down like a piece of furniture or an antique.” ●

Consider the design elements at play in the master suite
in one of the guesthouses (this page), and homeowner
Shea Kos’ vision for a look of “industrial sophistication”
becomes clear. Delicately framed steel doors and a sim-
ple bed pair with an exposed concrete wall to achieve
the juxtaposition she had in mind. OPPOSITE: The
guesthouse’s spa-like bathroom, which opens to a
meditation garden, repeats the rugged-meets-delicate
theme. “We wanted to take the design a step beyond
your typical bathroom, and we tried to give it a true spa
feel while still keeping that industrial flavor,” Martin says.
