**★★★★★ — rouxconlon, April 2021**

> Forge + Bow
> “We knew we wanted to work with Forge + Bow when we decided to move to Fort Collins. We had seen some of their projects online and their homes were far superior in design and quality than anything else on the market. The owners, Annie and Jordan, worked with us every step of the way - from finding a home, to showing us the vision they had for transforming it, to the day we moved in to our newly renovated home. Our house looks amazing and has even been featured in a national interior design publication.
>
> The entire Forge + Bow team is talented and hard working, and they are also great people who we really enjoyed working with and who are dedicated to designing beautiful homes”

**★★★★★ — Leslie Hill, June 2020**

> The crew at Forge+Bow listened to how we live and what we wanted in our home, took our budget into consideration, and after their renovation, we have our dream home. Their eye for beautiful design and continuity made this a place we love! My favorite features are the wood floors (old and new blended together perfectly), the staircase/bookcase, and the light fixtures.

**Comment from FORGE + BOW:**

> We love to hear that Leslie! That staircase + bookcase is truly one of a kind and it was an honor to help design your dream home. Thank you for the kind words. Wishing you and your family all the best!

**★★★★★ — Bloom Designs for Living LLC, Oct. 2018**

> The Forge and Bow team were great! They took the time to listen to what we wanted in our space including function and design. A lot of thought went into the planning process so we were all on the same page when the work began. There were some slight delays with construction, as challenges can arise, but the team always kept us updated and worked off-hours to complete the project. Our finished space is amazing! We rent it as an airbnb and have received amazing reviews on the design and quality of work. We often hear, "This is our favorite airbnb yet!". The entire Forge and Bow team are a pleasure to work with - we highly recommend!

**★★★★★ — Joshua Sbicca, Sept. 2016**

> My wife and I bought a beautifully renovated home this summer that we couldn't be happier with. The industrial farmhouse design aesthetic fit our vision of what we wanted. From the I-beam across the kitchen and dining room, to the white subway tiles and black grout, to a lovely master addition with rustic wood shelving, we feel right at home. Given that there are few homes designed in this way here in Fort Collins, we are excited that Forge+Bow is pushing to expand the design space of the city. Whenever there have been questions or a problem with something in the home we have been able to contact Forge+Bow for a resolution. They are responsive and want their final product to be quality. If you are looking for something unique and for people who will get the job done then look no further.

**★★★★★ — TroveCollective LLC, May 2016**

> Our real estate staging company had the distinct honor of partnering with Forge+Bow on one of their full-scale renovations. We were beyond impressed with the high-end nature of their work.  They left no design stone unturned-from lighting fixtures, to countertop materials, to wallpaper for the entry, to door hardware, even down to the doorstoppers, they settled for nothing less than excellence in every way.  Saying they do "flips" is a misnomer.  Nothing about their work is flippant. Nothing is chosen just because it's the least expensive way to appeal to a buyer.  They are exacting in their expectations for each property they work on, guaranteeing any client a profoundly satisfying experience, and even an awakening, of what a home can be.

  - Location: Fort Collins, CO

  - Description: This was an entire haul over. We updated the guts of the home and redesigned the interior to merge the beautiful, original architecture with modern amenities. We updated the kitchen, all baths, and added a master suite. We did our best to honor the past by keeping the original windows and having custom storms made to bring up the homes efficiency. All brass hardware was cleaned and reused.

  - Location: Fort Collins, CO
  - Photos: 27
  - Description: This home's biggest challenge was bringing natural light into the house. In its original form, it had 8' ceilings and lacked windows. We re-deigned and engineered the roof to allow a vaulted ceiling. By vaulting the ceilings and adding skylights throughout, this home is now flooded with natural light. The floor plan was rearranged to offer the new homeowners a sophisticated master suite and a main floor laundry room. Every surface of this house was touched (Inside + Out) . All mechanicals were u…

  - Location: Fort Collins, CO
  - Photos: 24
  - Description: On one of the most idyllic streets in the east part of Old Town Fort Collins, this home started as a small, 1500 square foot fixer upper. The original pitch of the home suggested an American Classic Farmhouse, and with adding some Luxe, the build was off to the races. Once the renovation was complete, 3800 square feet of luxury real estate was left standing, and Whedbee St. had it’s latest gem. Our goal was to establish deep-rooted luxury through classic interior finishes, while also including s…

- [Remington Apartment Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/remington-apartment-renovation-pj-vj~6059030)
  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 19
  - Description: I think I can… I think I can. These little apartments were bursting with eclectic appeal; cinder block walls, steel-framed windows, wood floors highlighted the original design. But it was all hidden beneath… well, nothing but datedness, disrepair, and layers of grime and a lot of “not-caring-ness.” After an extensive remodel, a new kitchen layout coupled with modern finishes, a freshening of the bathrooms, and a reappointing of the exterior caught the attention of both Fort Collins renters, and…
