In the Beginning…

Sometimes just when you think you are at the end, it turns out you are only at the beginning.  Trista and I approached and passed the planned ground breaking event for the home we had spent so much time designing when we realized it wasn’t the home for us.  We loved the design, we loved the location, yet something simply did not feel right.  We have put the project up for sale and have decided to move forward in a new location.  As with anything that carries a vested interest and holds a special place in the heart, it was tough to move on from the Wildridge lot.  However, having made the decision there is no looking back.  We are now fully focussed and excited about the new project and intent on sharing the trials and tribulations as we move forward from design to completion.  So…

Step one.  Find a new lot.

We have gone under contract on a lot in Edwards, Colorado.  The lot is a 2.5 acre equestrian lot bordering open space and National Forest with an outstanding Sunset view and quick back country access.  At this point we have begun laying out schematic designs for a home and detached secondary barn structure that will fit the unique proportions of the steep site charecteristics.  As always, it is our intent to explore the design process in relation to the natural environment and to take advantage of both traditional and emerging building practices.  The sites every inch has been walked and explored for potential opportunities.  An informal project kick-off incuded a sunset toast mountain style.
