A Mountain Retreat Worth Celebrating

A Mountain Retreat Worth Celebrating

We are thrilled to announce the release of the Keith Editorial in the Nov/Dec issue of Mountain Living Magazine. This editorial piece features the stunning mountain retreat of our Houston-based clients, the Keiths, highlighting the beauty and functionality of their Mountain Modern design in Breckenridge, Colorado.

From the seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces to the breathtaking views in every direction, this home truly showcases the best of Rocky Mountain living. One unique feature of the home is the oxygen system in the primary bedrooms, designed by Altitude Control Technology, which helps acclimate guests to the high altitude of nearly 9,000 feet above sea level.

Our clients worked closely with Pinnacle Mountain Homes and Collective Design throughout the build and design. The result is a deeply functional space created with a warm and comfortable ambience highlighted by natural elements like stone, petrified wood, boucle, and faux fur. The local art from Summit County’s Roitman Art Galleries adds a personal touch to the home’s stunning interior design.

The Keiths’ home stands out as one of our favorites, a true showpiece for the high quality results and unmatched client experience that come when two of our businesses work seamlessly together. This editorial is a must-read for anyone seeking inspiration for their own mountain getaway or looking to immerse themselves in the beauty and tranquility of the mountain lifestyle.

Top 5 Projects

TOP 5 PROJECTS 2022

From sleek and modern to warm and inviting, our top 5 interior design and architecture projects showcase our ability to understand and execute our client’s unique vision. Below, we will be taking a closer look at the inspiration behind each project – from refurnishing a luxurious home in Malibu to a full remodel and new construction projects in the Rocky Mountains. We are excited to share these stunning spaces with you and hope they will inspire your next design project.

Full Remodel in Silverthorne, Colorado

The owners of this home, in a charming neighborhood north of Silverthorne, purchased the property just over a year ago. Built in 2016, the house was a blank slate: white walls and basic finishes. The owners—a Denver family with two young children—worked with Design Director, Lisa Yates to infuse the space with color and pattern while preserving a traditional-meets-transitional sensibility. The result is a richly layered home with tons of texture and color.

Interior Design Revamp in Malibu, California

Our designers helped reimagine this ten-acre Malibu estate. The clients approached Collective Design to achieve a more transitional design, blending the Spanish traditional style of the home with a more modern, minimal, and cleaner look. The home was refreshed with a neutral pallet which added warmth to each space along with a brighter, lighter feel.

New Construction in Breckenridge, Colorado

Collective Design Director, Lisa Yates worked with partner Pinnacle Mountain Homes to achieve the client’s vision of designing a home around maximizing views. The essence of mountain modern design, this home features white oak flooring throughout, a waterfall quartzite kitchen island, and stone that covers the walls from the entry through to the expansive views.

Architecture & Interior Design in Keystone, Colorado

Sleek and modern, Collective’s architecture and interior design teams collaborated to design a home around this family’s love of the mountains. The home sits at the base of Keystone Ski Resort with a lower level and patio designed as an après entertaining space to enjoy once you make your way off the mountain. The upper level is a communal space all about the views and the connection to the natural surroundings.

 

Finish Details for New Construction in Breckenridge, Colorado

Textured wallcoverings, floor-to-ceiling windows, industrial accents, and a custom wine cellar are just a few of the highlights of this home. Our team worked with Savante Wine Cellars to build a custom wine storage display in a temperature-controlled space. A custom leather banquette sits at the center, paired with matching leather chairs around.

Our team welcomes the opportunity to meet with you to discuss your vision of home—and how we can become your partner in designing beautiful spaces you love!

When to Hire an Interior Designer

WHEN TO HIRE AN INTERIOR DESIGNER

Hiring an interior designer is a fantastic way to breathe new life and style into your home, but it’s important to know when the right time is to bring one on board. The goal of working with an interior designer isn’t only about creating an attractive space but shaping the sanctuary where you and your family reside.

If you’re looking to rejuvenate an existing space or seeking expertise to design something new and beautiful, the right designer will be able to reflect your family’s unique personality in every detail. An interior designer takes into consideration the well-being and routine of those who live there and seeks to support and enhance their everyday lives through the designs that they create. Here’s when to consider hiring an interior designer:

  1. You’re building a new home or remodeling a current one. Working with an interior designer is not “one size fits most,” but rather, “what size fits you.” If you’re starting from scratch with a new build or undergoing a significant remodel, an interior designer can help maximize the potential of your space and create a cohesive and thoughtful design that flows well from room to room. They’ll ensure each design choice makes sense for your family.

2. You’re having trouble visualizing the final product. Sometimes, it can be difficult to envision how a space will look once it’s finished. An interior designer will work alongside you to create a detailed plan and provide you with 3D renderings or mood boards to give you a better idea of what the final space will look like. Additionally, working with an interior designer gives you a completely curated and customized design that is unique to you (one-of-a-kind). Through the designer, you’ll have access to their endless vendor and manufacturer relationships which will allow you to source items that are not found in everyday retail/big box stores.

3. You’re having trouble making decisions. With so many options to choose from when it comes to paint colors, furniture, and decor, it can be overwhelming to make decisions on your own. Working with an interior designer is a very collaborative and relationship-based process. They’ll seek to build a bond with you and your family so they can easily navigate through and narrow down the multitude of options out there to ensure a result that reflects your family’s needs and desired result.

4. You’re on a tight deadline. If you need to get a space finished quickly, an interior designer can help you make decisions and coordinate the work of various contractors to ensure that everything is done on time.

5. You want to increase the value of your property. A well-designed interior can significantly increase the value of your property, especially if you’re planning to sell it in the near future. An interior designer can help you create a space that appeals to potential buyers and maximizes the value of your property. Even if you’re not thinking of selling your home soon, preserving its value is still important. Thoughtful interior design will utilize high-quality materials, sustainable finishes and fixtures, and creative architectural elements that can all help to add value to a property once you are ready to sell.

Overall, hiring an interior designer can be a great way to bring new style and functionality to your home, but should also exceed that desired look in a way that feels thoughtful, personal, and cohesive with the way you and your family live. If you find yourself in any of these instances, it may be worth considering hiring an interior designer to help bring your vision to life and transform your house into a home. If you’d like to discuss your next design project, we’d love to meet with you and see how we can become your partner in designing beautiful spaces you love!

Bear run living room

FULL-SERVICE INTERIOR DESIGN BRECKENRIDGE RETREAT

Located at the base of Peak 8 in Breckenridge, Colorado, this 9,000-square-foot home is what designer Lisa Yates, Design Director, calls “a Western take on soft modern”—rich finishes, textural fabrics, natural materials, and a muted palette. Because of the home’s architecture and the lot’s distinctive topography, the house comprises seven split levels, which creates both dramatic ceiling heights in the gathering spaces and intimate spaces throughout the expansive footprint.

In the public areas of the home, a barnwood ceiling treatment warms up the spaces, which are infused with natural light, courtesy of large windows. A contemporary stacked-stone DaVinci fireplace separates the main living and dining rooms to give each a distinct feel. “We envisioned people hanging out around the fireplace and sitting on the hearth,” Yates says.

BearRunKitchen

The handsome kitchen’s centerpiece is a dramatic, 15-foot Infamous quartzite island, bookmatched in the center. A butler’s pantry with prep area and professional-grade appliances allows the owners to use the kitchen as an area for staging food for parties while the cooking happens out of sight.

BearRunBedroomWindows
BearRunbedroom

With six king bedroom suites and two bunkrooms (each with ultra-cool custom walnut bunk beds with built-in shelving and ladders), the house accommodates a lot of people easily and beautifully. Yates specified a different design—complete with sumptuous wall treatment for each suite: “We designed them all so no one bedroom feels more special than the other,” she says.

BearRunChairLift

The ski chair hanging from the stairway came from Arapahoe Basin. Several years ago, the resort decided to replace the chairs on their famous Pali Lift with updated versions, so they launched a community lottery for anyone who wished to purchase the old chairs. The owners won a chance to buy a chair, a piece of Summit County history that hangs where guests entering the house can spot it when they walk through the front door.

BearRunStairs
Ultimately, this house tells the story of owners who love Summit County and high-country living, and who wanted a home that embraces and reflects a mountain lifestyle while showcasing exceptional details, furnishings, and finishes.

A Conversation with Adrienne Rynes

A CONVERSATION WITH ADRIENNE RYNES

If you haven’t already, meet Adrienne Rynes, Collective Design’s President of Interior Design. Recently named an Influential Woman of Design by Luxe Magazine, with over a decade of experience in the industry, we sit down with her to talk about what sets Collective apart, what a day in the life looks like, and the why behind Collective’s greater purpose.
Describe Collective Design. What sets you apart in the industry?
Collective Design offers integrated interior design and architecture services. While our functional business is design, our greater purpose is to enhance the lives of others. That focus is what sets us apart, not just in the industry, but in the greater culture of our country. Personal connection matters deeply.

Did you always want to work in the design industry? Was there a pivotal moment that made this clear to you?
Subconsciously, I believe I always wanted to work in the design industry, but I didn’t start my career in interior design. My academic focus was business and communications. I also minored in art history, always having a passion for the arts and historical events that were documented through design. I first worked as a consultant for Accenture in Washington, DC, and then as a marketing director for a smaller firm in Western Massachusetts. It wasn’t until building my own home in MA that I discovered my passion for all things design. That passion drove me back to school to focus on interior design and subsequently start my own interior design business.

Talk about mentors who shaped and inspired you personally and professionally.
I’ve met so many incredible people throughout my career that have shaped and inspired me personally and professionally. There are two women who impacted me the most. First, my grandmother. She taught me to love and appreciate the arts. Growing up, we went to countless musical performances, plays, ballets, and museums. Her profound appreciation for creative landscapes and people fueled my desire to learn as much as possible about art’s history and the world’s storytelling through singing, dancing, and painting. The second woman I met my sophomore year in college. I was a business student at George Washington University and was lucky to have an internship at a firm called WomanTrends, co-founded by a woman named Diana Holman. WomanTrends was the first company to analyze and interpret trends created by and affecting female consumers. Diana taught me how to research, analyze, and write about these market trends in the firm’s quarterly newsletter, whose subscribers included companies such as Bloomingdales and Estee Lauder. It was an incredible experience to be a part of a company that genuinely cared about women’s values and to learn from a woman as progressive as Diana.

Who do you consider to be the ultimate female icons of your trade? What unique strengths or points of view do you feel they bring to design?
Before my love of interior design, I had a love of fashion design. From the beginning, fashion represented culture, and culture and history have always driven trends in interiors. While Dorothy Draper paved the way for female designers with her vivacious color accents, we cannot forget about one of the most influential female fashion icons, Coco Channel, and her idea that “luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury.” This philosophy is easily considered when designing a home’s interiors. The functionality of space is equally as important as the design of space itself.

What goal do you have for Collective Design in the future? Why?
My major goal for Collective Design is to drive more progressive design in mountain markets, leading the communities in which we work, and leaving a legacy of positive impact for others to continue cultivating. Our greater purpose is simple – to continue to enhance the lives of others.

Are there any thought-provoking books, podcasts, or other materials you’d recommend to your colleagues and/or future female design leaders? Why?
I recently read, Delivering Happiness by Tony Hsieh, where the theme of the book is delivering happiness while living a life of passion and purpose. Recognizing that I discovered my passion for interior design later in life, I was enthusiastic to share Hsieh’s initial boredom with what society thought he should do versus what he was passionate about doing and why his passion led to greater success. That idea resonates with our team’s greater purpose of enhancing the lives of others. Ultimately, that’s what we’re all about.

Describe your typical workday.
Wake up early, Crossfit or skin uphill (new favorite sport!), and snuggle with my boys before having breakfast together and getting them off to school. At the office, I prep for my day, planning for meetings and reviewing design sets. Most days are spent on business development opportunities, connecting with new clients in the mountains.

What motivates and energizes you for your workday like nothing else?
Tuesdays. The entire Collective Team is in the office, including our interior designers from Summit County, Denver, and the Vail Valley. The energy that’s created when everyone is working collectively in one space, sourcing, scheming, and selecting fabric and wall coverings, is electric. The synergy when we’re all together, sharing ideas, and telling stories, is like nothing else. Creativity is at an all-time high, and the vibe is pure joy.

Talk about any projects or properties you’ve designed and/or overseen that exemplify your style, aesthetic, and unique professional skills.
Originally from New England, I have always loved the juxtaposition of old and new materials, creating spaces that enhance the overall feel of a home. Recently, our team finished a project in Breckenridge where we worked with the client to select reclaimed materials from their childhood region. While not typically common in mountain modern design, inserting history is both inspirational and relevant. Our market is not looking to preserve the past, but as designers, we’re interested in creating spaces that are unique to them and routed in their history.

If you weren’t in this profession, what would you be doing? Why?
I’d be a full-time mom with a wicked Pinterest account. I have two boys, 9 and 11 and they are my inspiration for everything I get to create. With them, I’d travel the world writing a blog about experiencing food, culture, and design as a family.

What does the future hold for women in design? How would you like to see the industry evolve with respect to the space it holds for women?
Recently, on a trip to Tuscany with my family, I took my children on a wine and honey tasting experience. During the honey tasting, the story of the honeybees was revealed, explaining that the male bee was critical in the reproduction of the species, but the female worker bee was ultimately responsible for all that sweet goodness that we love so much. Sounds about right to me and feels like everyone should know and understand that story! Women in design will define the path of the vision, rather than simply participating.

Is there anything else you wish to add?
I’ve worked with a lot of different people in my career, but I couldn’t be more excited and grateful to my current team. They’re my passion and my inspiration. I’m currently at an all-time high, loving what I do, with the people I’m with.

We’d love to hear from you! Contact us to learn more about how we’re enhancing lives through design.

Our Integrated Approach

ARCHITECTURE & INTERIOR DESIGN:

AN INTEGRATIVE APPROACH

You’ve long dreamt of building your forever home, and now you’re at the brink of starting your project. You know you need a visionary architect, a talented designer, and a smart builder to bring your new home to life—and you might assume that just having those three disciplines available to you means your project will run smoothly. 

But how the professionals work together matters. 

At Collective, we’ve created a streamlined approach that integrates architecture and design right from the beginning. “When people begin a home-building project, they typically start with the architect,” says lead Design Director Lisa Yates. “But with a designer at the table, we can begin helping you personalize spaces right away. We help you think about how a room will function: Do you want big sofas for lounging and/or small intimate spaces for conversation? That affects the space planning. Do you want a specific wall to be stone? Let’s show it that way right from the start so you can begin to envision your home.”  

Principal Architect Zane Levin agrees. “Architecture takes the big-picture approach,” he says. “We paint with a broader brush, while our interiors colleagues give a more detailed focus. To tag-team brings our clients a lot of benefits”—such as… 

Cohesive design: “When you separate architecture and interior design, you can end up with a home that feels disjointed,” Zane says. But integrating the two from the first meeting, clients’ priorities and vision go into every single decision—from big-picture questions about room sizes and lot orientation to details like kitchen-cabinet material and bed sizes in each guest room. The result: a home that fulfills the client’s wishes for style and functionality. 

More efficient timelines: Zane characterizes how the old home-design model works: After the drawings were mostly complete, the interior designer and client would meet to decide that the fireplace should be stone. The designer emails the architect, who responds within a day or two and says he needs to check with the engineer. The engineer responds another day or two with information about what the contractor needs to do to support stone installation. “One decision can take three or four days to finalize,” Zane says. “With our model, we can get through such decisions in a matter of hours, not days”—which saves our clients’ time. 

What’s more, with integrated design, the team at Collective can combat material delays. “We know what we need on the front end, and details are dialed-in before the builder even breaks ground,” Lisa says. “You’re not waiting for walls to go up before you choose your fixtures, finishes, and furnishings.” 

A better overall experience: “It’s enjoyable for everyone to have all of the experts around the table,” Zane says. Because Collective’s team is all housed under one roof, just down the hall from one another, we collaborate easily, brainstorming solutions and ideas to create beautiful and custom spaces for each client. “I love creating beautiful spaces,” he adds. “A large component of that is interior design. I don’t see architecture and interiors as two separate disciplines; they’re just two parts of the collective whole.” 

Collective’s architecture and design teams also welcome the opportunity to work with outside architects and designers. We’re always eager to start early on a project to bring our integrated approach to design for the benefit of each client!

Steeped in Character

Winter Park Design Project

A WINTER PARK DESIGN PROJECT – STEEPED IN CHARACTER

This client approached Collective Design after they had purchased their Winter Park home. Positioned directly across from the base area, this would serve as an ideal ski getaway for their family, and they sought to establish a modern sensibility to the space, while staying true to a distinctly Colorado state of mind. After having seen Collective’s award-winning work at the Summit County Parade of Homes and perusing their Frisco furniture store, these clients knew Collective could bring the perfect balance of upscale and natural furnishings and fixtures to their new home.

The Collective team worked with the clients to get a comprehensive understanding of their desires, aesthetic preferences and intentions for the space, in order to provide recommendations for the perfect pieces to complete their vision of home. A true partnership was formed as these clients placed their trust in us.

These clients were drawn to a neutral color palette and wanted to reflect the mountain environment in their ski home. We incorporated a lot of texture and black and white accents throughout, complimented by the playful prints depicting animals found in Colorado.

By bringing in custom upholstery, bedding and pillows, the clients were able to create a unique look for each space, layering different colors and patterns to add character based on each family member’s personality.

The end result is a beautiful amalgamation of everything this family loves. The custom upholstery and animal prints play perfectly with the natural materials of weathered woods and hand-woven textiles, accentuated with distinctive light fixtures and simple accessories. By getting to know these clients and their unique personalities, Collective was able to create a home, steeped in character, that showcases them while maintaining a true sense of place amidst the Winter Park landscape.

Tips for Timeless Design

Timeless design in modern living

TIPS FOR TIMELESS DESIGN

Around this time every year, you start to see a lot of articles attempting to forecast the upcoming trends that will shape home design for the coming months. From the “color of the year,” expected to adorn every stylish home’s walls and furnishings, or a specific materials trend, like flooring or cabinetry, you’ll see all sorts of predictions that may, or may not, stand the test of time. When it comes to interior design, however, we understand that every project is different and doesn’t need to rely on annual trends in order to feel current and comfortable, long after the yearly fads have gone out of style. Instead, our award-winning interior designers approach each project knowing our client’s personal preferences, lifestyle and aesthetic, in order to create spaces that are decidedly timeless, and uniquely perfect. From the beginning of every design project, we ask questions to understand how our clients will utilize their spaces. We identify what their day-to-day looks like and determine how their personal style can be incorporated into their home. From here, we have go-to techniques that we recommend to clients who are looking for a timeless look, no matter how much trends may change. Read on for some of our favorite tips for creating spaces that reflect stylish sensibilities for years to come.
 
 
Start with Neutrals
Choosing neutrals such as whites, ivory or beige in fixed finishes and larger furnishings creates a blank canvas to add and exchange pops of color through accessories as seasons and tastes change. Textures and textiles, like wood, linens or velvet, in neutral colors also play an important role in creating a warm, welcoming, and well-designed space. Neutrals are classic and work in any style of home from modern to transitional to traditional and beyond, making it a very popular theme for many of our projects.
bedroom with timeless design
Incorporate Earthy Textures
Natural, earthy materials make any room inviting and comforting, especially here in the mountains. A space can really come to life by using elements like wood, stone, greenery, and other textures inspired by the outdoors. Whether you incorporate a stone countertop into your finish selections, a set of leather chairs in your furnishings, or top off your décor with a clay sculpture or succulent, consider a few natural elements to add interest to your space.
Customize Your Upholstered Furniture
When it comes to upholstered furniture, it is important to choose a high-quality, long-lasting, and comfortable piece. Investing in upholstered furnishings makes it completely customizable, allowing you to choose performance fabrics that will last for years to come. In addition to looking great, these durable options are especially beneficial for families with kids or pets. Alternatively, upholstered furniture allows you to pick a bold fabric that can always be reupholstered and replaced as tastes and lifestyles evolve.
Embrace Antiques
Another way to achieve timeless design in any style home is to incorporate a unique antique item, whether designing a room around one of your own treasured heirlooms or seeking out a piece that will work perfectly with your style. When it comes to antiques, we can help you find a great deal on high-quality furnishings to provide a one-of-a-kind statement piece in your home. We also love that when shopping antiques, we support small businesses and practice sustainability by reusing and repurposing.
Lighting is Key
We think it’s safe to say that lighting is one of the most important aspects of your home design and we’re here to help guide you in creating ambiance to reflect your style and how to utilize it best in your space. Architectural lighting, such as canned lighting, is key to showcase your furnishings while setting the overall mood. Decorative lighting can bring out more of the space’s style and aesthetic. We also love to flush fixed finishes with light, such as accent lighting in built-in cabinetry, to warm the space and make it more functional.
timeless bathroom design
Consider Metal Accents
We love adding decorative contrast to any space by incorporating metal accents. Different types of metal work in a range of décor styles – modern, industrial or traditional – and can make a space feel more feminine or masculine, depending on the chosen aesthetic.

Trying to balance your personal style with current styles while future-proofing your home can feel like an overwhelming feat. Our team’s experience and expertise make the process seamless and fun! We work with you to help you make choices that you will love now and down the road.

Vacation Rental Before & Afters

before and after

BRECKENRIDGE INTERIOR DESIGN BEFORE & AFTER

The Collective team reimagined this 1980’s-era slope side condo by remodeling different spaces and replacing flooring and fixtures to reveal a brighter, more functional home. Curated furnishings and accessories brought a distinct air of modern comfort to complete the transformation.

Located in the Village at Breckenridge Resort, in the heart of town, this two-bedroom condo is provided as an employee benefit at a private company. With employees and their families and friends utilizing the space frequently, it needed to appeal to a variety of different guests and individual needs. The designers offered their expertise to provide interior design that focused on maximizing the functionality of the space while incorporating progressive, sophisticated guidance in every detail of the design.

“We were definitely looking for durable furniture that suits the rental nature of the property. Our goal was to modernize it, create more functional spaces for guests, and make it an inviting place to stay while encompassing a mountain modern aesthetic,” said Collective.

How To: Choose Accent Seating

accent-seating-hero

HOW TO CHOOSE ACCENT SEATING

The living room is one of the spaces where we spend most of our time, whether entertaining family and friends or relaxing with a favorite book after a long day. It’s a space that should always feel comfortable, while beautifully exuding your personal style.

Although it may not be the first thing you think of when composing your ideal living room, accent seating is essential in pulling together the aesthetic and functionality of the space. If you’re looking for a way to spice things up, incorporating the strong silhouette of an occasional chair can be a surprisingly simple way to embolden a space. If maximizing your seating is the goal, accent chairs are a straightforward way to fulfill this need while making a statement through custom fabric, finishes and styles that complement the rest of your look.

When choosing your accent seating, there are many styles to consider. To narrow down your options, first choose your piece based on functionality, considering how it might be used day-to-day and how it fits in the space. From there, you can get creative with customizations to make it your own, and a one-of-a-kind piece.

Swivel Give yourself the ability to face one direction – a window view or cozy fire – and spin back to face the room. A swivel chair works well in any space, but is particularly suited to an open floor plan, an entry or a reading nook.
