Scandinavian Ranch House - Boulder, Colorado

Custom Home Design

We love designing homes that inspire joy, promote well-being, and enrich the lives of those who live in them. As residential architects serving Boulder, Denver, and Colorado, we collaborate with clients to create custom home designs that are warm, inviting, and uniquely reflective of each client’s goals and values.

Site: Connecting to the site is central to our approach. We design homes that foster a strong connection to nature, using forms that maximize the site, capture views, and create compelling interior and exterior spaces. Floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors often help seamlessly link indoor and outdoor living.

Emotion: Every client is different, and a thoughtfully designed home can nurture both emotional and functional needs. A cozy sitting room with a fireplace provides a place to unwind, while a living room with expansive windows inspires and deepens your connection to the landscape.

Function: Beauty and function go hand in hand. We design homes that enhance daily life—from kitchens that bring families together for home-cooked meals to front porches with discreet heaters that allow outdoor dining nearly year-round.

Craft: Architecture is a craft, and details make all the difference. From a perfectly framed window at the end of a hallway to a sculptural railing, these thoughtful touches come together to make a home truly exceptional and uniquely yours.

Interior Design

One of the greatest rewards of custom home design is creating interiors that are uniquely yours. Interior design is where this personalization truly shines—from cozy, intimate spaces to bright, expansive rooms, every detail matters.

As a full-service residential design firm, we provide interior design services fully integrated with your custom home. Our process includes selecting materials, finishes, lighting, and other key design elements to ensure your home is not only beautiful but also highly functional—reflecting how you live, work, and relax.

Renovations

We see remodels as a chance to reimagine your home to better suit the way you live today. As a residential architect, we carefully assess existing spaces—what functions well, what could improve, and where hidden potential lies. By optimizing layouts, enhancing natural light and flow, and strengthening connections between indoors and outdoors, we craft spaces that are both practical and enduring. Integrating architecture and interior design into a seamless process, we create homes that embody your lifestyle and values, elevating daily living now and for years to come.

“We feel so lucky to live in one of Cherie’s amazing designs. Simply put, she is an extraordinary architect. We found Cherie to be approachable, patient, confident, and amazing with the details.
