Case Studies
Cherryvale Residence
Located on a 5 acre site in south Boulder, this project illustrates the transformative nature of remodeling a dated older home into a contemporary dwelling. The original house was a 1980's two story cedar sided ranch, complete with a shallow, non-functioning wrap-around porch and large moss-rock and brass fireplace. These stylistic issues aside, the bones and general layout of the house were sound.
Valley View Residence
This transformative remodel and addition project reused the existing footprint and foundation of the former home and delivers an entirely different aesthetic to the property. The design takes cues from the International Style of the early 1900s but is contemporary in its form, materials and function. Large window and door openings bring in substantial natural light and the panoramic views of the Flatirons and Mt. Sanitas.
“I am a general contractor in Boulder who worked on a remodel that bldg.collective designed in 2013. We were very impressed with not only Steve and Chris’ ability to design an incredible, smart space within a tight lot, but also their ability to navigate the arduous local building codes and requirements.
I also really appreciate their approachable personalities that lends to a very creatively conducive environment that helped make this project amazing. Their attention to detail and knowledge of building practices is refreshing. I look forward to working with them again in the future.”
Ryan Wither | General Contractor | Buildwell
“As a custom cabinetmaker, I work with many architects and contractors on an annual basis. Any time bldg. collective calls about an upcoming residential project, I jump at the opportunity. They understand design. They understand construction. They understand engineering and green building practices. They understand their clients’ needs and wants while helping them stay within budget.
All of these skills help set their work apart from the competition. Most importantly, this team listens and collaborates on how best to achieve an efficient, beautiful and well-constructed finished product. Would I recommend them? YES!”
