Returning to 629 West Smuggler six and a half years later.

Six and a half years have past since 629 Smuggler was literally sold two weeks after receiving our Certificate of Occupancy from the city of Aspen, and although I did my best to capture the home for the 1 Friday portfolio, some items just never made it to the archives.  I was incredibly excited to […]

Berman Residence for LUXE Winter Issue

Last fall, I had the opportunity to work with LUXE magazine on a tucked away contemporary located on McSkimming Road in Aspen.  The Berman Residence, a design collaboration between Tim Hagman Architects and ID Interiors was completed in the spring of 2014.  Situated along a mountainside cliff, the home is perched above the Roaring Fork […]

The Wrath of Sam Continues…Along with the Imaging Series

Yep, Sam is still into terrorizing his toys, and I can’t help but continue to document his efforts.  Shown below is one of my favorites.  Being Jennifer and I were born in the seventies, anything Star Wars still holds a special place for us… Apparently Sam is a little less sentimental regarding Chewy than we […]

Thank you Michael Miracle and Anne Reeser of Aspen Sojourner for taking a chance on running this little modern gem tucked away creekside in Old Snowmass, and a very big thank you to Jim and Kat Moser for graciously welcoming me into their home and allowing all of this to happen!

"The Only People for Me are the Mad Ones…"

“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to save or be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across […]

I'm Going to Miss the Wallpaper…

Somewhere between a Hitchcock scene and the day John Kennedy died is where these concepts derived.  Architecturally, I get commissioned to rework  a great many old Victorians and mining cottages here in  Aspen, and included above are images taken at two of these: 629 Smuggler and 201 East Hyman.  It’s been an interesting opportunity getting […]

The Autumn Colours

This year in Aspen the colours just hung around for what seemed like forever; I wish all autumns were as beautiful as our last…

An Identity Remodel for Summit Construction

Mak Keeling is the owner of Summit Construction; a great builder, a damn fine tennis tennis player, all around good guy, and someone I’m happy to call my friend.  So, when a friend calls up in need, you help them out, and that’s what we’ve been doing with his team of Summit Construction.  It’s a […]

"Little Pink Houses For You and Me…"

Perhaps it was all of my recent weeks spent in the North woods, or perhaps I was taken back to my college days at North Dakota State where everything was a little slower, a little less crazed, but the zen I found in the watered horizons of Minnesota I’m now experiencing in Dakota’s windswept open […]
