“I
blend your desired mountain lifestyle with the best views
from your mountain site to give you your Mountain Dream: a
special mountain home tailored to you and your environment.
Our details evolve from natural mountain materials,
resulting in Timeless Mountain Architecture that looks like
it grew there.” ------
Rand Soellner, AIA, NCARB
It
All Starts With
People
We have learned how to work
with people who want a special mountain home. You have
special needs and desires. This is probably different from
anything you have ever done in your life. We see many
similar issues with our clients, while we recognize that you are
unique and that you have a special site. Our experience in
helping other people create mountain homes gives us the ability
to work with you to help tailor solutions for you. We have
solved certain issues repeatedly and know what to do to help you
achieve your goals.
Dreams About Your Special Place. . .
You
have dreams about your future, your retirement, your family, your
relationships, your business, how you want to live. Many of us
feel that some major event (like retirement) must first take place
before you can start to live the real dreams you have always wanted.
Like you have to achieve yet another big objective before it is your
turn. Sound familiar? We have a question for
you: “What are you waiting for?” What is
stopping you? (okay, that’s two). Try it, you might like
it. In other words, what dreams can we help you achieve? We
are architects and interior designers: we design your special dream: your
mountain home! Why wait until 5 or 10 years from
now? Do it now! You deserve it!

Allow
us to help create your Mountain Dream
Worldwide,
we design luxury log & timber homes, including mountain
castles, themed shopping boutiques, schools, village centers,
master plans for communities, condominium complexes, clubhouses,
parks, office buildings and other projects in Mountain
environments. We also create mountain homes for builders,
developers and private owners and have helped create wealth for
them, as our projects typically appraise for much more than the
construction cost.
YOUR HOME DESIGN
WILL CAPTURE THOSE MOUNTAIN VIEWS which
you have paid so handsomely to enjoy. I integrate computerized home
plans with surveys of the building site to take advantage of the
accurate view relationships to mountains, waterfalls, rivers and
other spectacular features.

RESALE/FINANCIAL
SUCCESS Many people want to build
a vacation home, and wish to sell it at a profit in the future.
Resale appeal is crucial to financial success. I work with realtors
and appraisers to ensure my designs have resale appeal &
competitive appreciation.
