**★★★★★ — 186 Lighting Design Group - Gregg Mackell, Jan. 2013**

> All of the people at Charles Cunniffe's office in Aspen are pretty special to me.  When I started my company around in 2001, Charles gave me a shot at my first project in Aspen.  It turned out to be an award winning project on all levels from winning an award from the Illuminating Engineering Society to becoming the Architect's Choice award winner at the AIA West awards show.  Since that time, we've worked together on a diverse array of projects, from spectacular custom homes, to retail spaces and mixed use buildings.
>
> Charles surrounds himself with a talented and dedicated staff while using top of the line consultants who are all experts in their fields.  These teams assembled by Charles can not only handle a project, but they can create a masterpiece.
>
> If you are looking to put a team together for your new home and you would like the best Aspen has to offer, I would highly recommend recommend you stop in and talk to the architects at CCA.

  - Description: A sandstone wall parallels the Rio Grande River, and seamlessly intersects the juxtaposing stone wall on opposite axis. No maintenance materials, bold forms of glass, stone, Resysta panels, and stucco form the exterior; allowing the sights and sounds of the river to be experienced from every room. Carefully placed operable clerestory windows allow for passive ventilation and solar gain.
