As an inspired, enterprising, and versatile design professional with more than thirty years experience in property development, architecture, and construction, we offer resourceful attention to detail and a clear Vision focused on Leadership, Design, and Craftsmanship using real time collaboration. We are active in California, Colorado, and Texas.

The entire process begins with a clear vision. This is where the foundation for every successful project is laid. Next a framework for masterful guidance must be set using the critical ingredients of teamwork and integration. The essential nature of this element is best conveyed by leadership expert John Maxwell, "Anyone can steer the ship, it takes leadership to chart the course." Having forged the appropriate structure, support is provided for the skillful design necessary to engage all of our senses and achieve a timeless appeal. With the infrastructure of trust and attention to detail in place, craftsmanship and imagination shine through.

Collaboration - it's what makes everything possible. The talent of many are brought together. Each piece or participant is distinct but when brought together they form the pattern of teamwork necessary for fruitful results. The projects I am privileged to work on are intended to serve the needs of my clients and not the pages of a portfolio.

### All 6 reviews

**★★★★★ — Joe Krabacher, Oct. 2016**

> Tim helped me design a site at my home in Aspen for a new greenhouse, including scenic review analysis required by the local county regulations. Quick turn around, very accurate work and excellent pricing! I would recommend Tim for all types of building and design projects

**★★★★★ — dbotfeld, Nov. 2015**

> Tim is just simply a great person to work with and a really talented and intelligent architect.   He is out "go to" guy for projects and remodels, from larger commercial projects to my designing my own house.
>
> Can't say enough good things.    If you're lucky enough to be able to work with Tim, you should.

**★★★★★ — susan weber, Nov. 2015**

> Tim White was a real pleasure to work with.  He listened carefully as we described our vision of our project and then created drawings that were exactly what we wanted.  He also provided helpful input and suggestions.  He was always available for consultation and meetings with the engineer.  He was patient while we made numerous changes and he revised drawings in a very timely manner.  If we were to build another house, we would call Tim again.

**★★★★★ — parristodd, March 2014**

> Timothy White is a visionary who is able to take not only a current building of any kind and turn it into a masterpiece, but also create an empire of beauty from scratch. Timothy has a precious gift to see beyond the natural to also bring to fruition another man's vision. A communicator, a great listener and a man responsive to his client's needs and vision. The Grace on his life speaks for itself. :)

**★★★★★ — Chris Striefel, March 2014**

> Tim is a fantastic architect to work with. Not only does he have a great sensibility for design and floor plan layouts but he also is very easy to work with. Tim helped me design my home in Aspen Glen and throughout the process he showed us solutions and alternatives that helped us find the perfect design. I recommend Tim for any size job. You will be thrilled with your house.

**★★★★★ — Eblen Construction LLC, March 2014**

> I came to Timothy White with some unique ideas and a sketch that i had scribbled on some paper. After a couple phone calls Tim had a better understanding of what I was trying to accomplish.... He drew up some plans that were absolutely perfect. He truly cares about his work, pays close attention to detail, and is very knowledgeable. Tim is an excellent person to work with and I highly recommend him and will definitely use him again!!!

## Community Q&A

**Q: Locking Hardware** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me the manufacture of the locking system for this door please? I really am trying to find something like this for a new door I just used.

Also is this a keyless door lock, wireless?

A: as i recall Genesis Innovations LLC custom manufactured this door, so if anyone would have that sort of information they would be the one - www.genesis-innovations.com 1040 Madison Ave.
Loveland CO 80537

**Q: Nice detailing.** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Thanks again TJ, I was first licensed in CA and have completed projects in the inland empire and LA area, along with a couple neat San Diego. I don't have a ton of contacts due to most of my time now in CO, but would be happy to share knowledge, contacts, consultants, whatever may help . . . . take care, tim (opart7 at mac dot com)

**Q: Where does one find the untreated steel used for the roof?** *(in Photo Questions)*

My roofer says the materials he can get are treated to not rust.

A: your roofer will need to seek out another supplier that sells the untreated variety. it's also possible that since 2007, when this project was constructed, some manufacturers may have stopped supplying the untreated variety for liability reasons. also, for the record: rusted roofs look great, but they can cause staining if eaves are not properly guttered, so it's not uncommon for roofers to discourage owners from using this material.

**Q: Stone is very beautiful!** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the type, color and cut of the stone used here?

A: My apologies for the delay in getting you an answer, but with the age of this project (2007) and changes with the contractor that completed the construction I have not been successful in locating the information that would address your question. However, if you take this image to any mason or stone yard worth their salt, then they should be able to provide what you are looking for. Take care, and thank you for your kind comment!

**Q: would you please tell what material you used for threshold ?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Do similar pivot door and wondering about black granite or steel threshold?

A: Metal threshold on this one . . . .

**Q: Windows** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is manufacturer and colour of the windows?

A: Windows by Kolbe and Kolbe but not sure what the color name is/was
