A fun time celebrating the year with most of the office crew last night…
We missed not having a few others from the past year(s), but bringing along a new office pup helped to sub in, even opening a white elephant gift or two. (Still bummed my Nerf gun got stolen).
Now, we’re excited to shut things down now for the office, taking an extended few weeks off for the team to relax, slide around in the snow, and spend time with family and friends over the holidays. We hope you all get to as well.
Cheers 🍻
Thanks @modernindenver for putting the spotlight on our collaboration with @roaringforkhabitat and amazing partners at Basalt Vista, and on other great net-zero projects!

Located in one of the most expensive counties in Colorado, Basalt Vista aims to address the affordable housing crisis for teachers and other essential workers in the Roaring Fork Valley in a sustainable way. The 27-home development consists of duplex and triplex units that are made net zero through the use of electrification, high-performance building envelopes, and on-site energy production. Spearheaded by @habitatroaringfork and designed by @2757designco, Basalt Vista is the first all-electric net zero community in rural Colorado.We've been sharing some of our favorite local net zero projects in support of Denver's plan to make all new buildings and homes net zero by 2030.
Check out our last three posts for more examples of Colorado's most sustainable architecture!

From @aiacolorado
It was 52 years ago when the late Civil Rights Leader Whitney Young, Jr. addressed the American Institute of Architects national convention and said, “You are not a profession that has distinguished itself by your social and civic contributions to the cause of civil rights, and I am sure this has not come to you as any shock. You are most distinguished by your thunderous silence and your complete irrelevance.”

Thinking about our role, in our profession we try to respond to places and the people that inhabit them to foster a better and more sustainable connection to the world we live in and the communities we’ve built.
But this is not okay to let sustain and we need to do more. We have to be better.
Installing a few final items on this design+build remodel and addition!

When the Governor visits your project 🙏 😁, good things are happening. @jaredpolis 👍👍

We were honored to have Governor Jared Polis at the Basalt Vista project last night. He was able to meet some of the homeowners and learn about all of the amazing things that this project is doing for our community. His departure line "this is a model for the state, and a model of the nation" was a great end to a great night!

We were excited and honored to have a couple of our projects featured in the last @mountainparentmagazine and join in the local housing discussion. 🙏 Grab a copy or use the link in bio to check out the great “missing middle” article on an important issue and lots of great work being done to help understand and solve.

Still feeling the red, white, and blue (+yellow) vibes... our pavilion and playground concept, based on primary colors and playful “building block” elements with architecture that becomes more than just structure, sits as an exciting contrast in a beautiful landscape

It was a great day with the family and office crew this past Saturday getting to see the first @habitatforhumanity homes dedicated for BVHP. Amazing families with inspiring and motivating stories! So happy for them and more families to come love and enjoy this neighborhood as more homes are completed!!

The worst of Monday’s.
It’s weird to realize another transplant, a non-native, was drawn to the same place as you, and that you became friends- one of the very best friends you had- all because of the mountains. And then, on Saturday, those mountains took our friend Mike Goerne too soon.
We’ve long considered ourselves locals, at home here in Colorado. But true natives, they’ve experienced this more than us. Growing up in a place so beautiful and so dangerous, these things can happen when you’re out there. And if you’re here long enough, it will happen to you or someone you know- a friend, a loved one.
I shrugged that off, thinking we were hardened enough by our time here, but this is truly hard.
Mike, like many others, died enjoying this place we all love. Being the amazing athlete he was and working hard to get better, as he always did. He was tireless. His excitement for life unmatched only by the quality of his friendship. We’re grateful for our time together as friends, and even as a client. We’ll miss him and think of him often, in so many places, like so many others who knew him and were impacted by him.
The many fun times with Mike, Erica, and Brian. To the last time we hung out at the top of Willy’s.
RIP @mgoerne
It’s October! Excited about all the great work by @coreaspen and being a part of the upcoming speaker series this month!! We get to talk about the combination of two topics that are extremely important to us- low energy & creative housing solutions. All of the topics look great, hope to see everyone there! #coreaspen #cleer #garfieldcleanenergy #energysmartcolorado #habitatbvhp #thetinytower
Things in their places = office remodel rest. 2x12’s (planed, ripped, and clear sealer) and off-the-shelf brackets (spray painted with fasteners) paired nicely with a couple favorites @modernwestfloral @eamesoffice #dimensionallumber #yellow #offtheshelf #charlesandrayeames #wordsofwisdom #officegoals #2757designco #connectingtoplaces
