> We have built a number of projects with Robbins Architecture. Celeste and her team have a keen eye for designing custom modern homes with a singular reflection of their owners. The firm is also skilled in designing projects with a distinctive warmth. Look closely at the firm's work, it is uniquely emotive, yet leading edge.

> I've worked with architects all over the US and Celeste's combination of creativity, skill and her incredibly fun personality make her one of my favorite people to work with on the planet.  I'd recommend Celeste to anyone looking to hire an architect for the design and implementation of a spectacular modern house.  She's the best!

  - Description: Nestled within eighty-nine acres of Colorado ranch land and surrounded by the majestic Rocky Mountains, this home responds to its site with a sweeping, modern design. We sought to incorporate the landscape into the home, balancing the strength and permanence of the mountains with the elegance and serenity of the wild grasses blanketing the valleys. Expanses of glass wrap the home to introduce light and blur the separation between indoors and out. Inside, a series of sunlit spaces gracefully flow…

  - Description: These clients, a jewelry designer and gem dealer, love the natural beauty of stone. For our third collaboration together, a remodeled master bathroom, we chose materials that celebrated stone veining and patterns. We mixed traditional and clean lines, with unusual details—including a recessed, illuminated, frosted-glass screen that frames the vanity. Elements of vintage and contemporary design come together, bridging the language between a traditional home and a modern sense of style. The result…
- [Woodland Modern](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/woodland-modern-pj-vj~34057)
  - Location: Glencoe, IL
  - Photos: 12
  - Description: Placed within a tree-layered ravine, this home is situated between a densely wooded slope with an intermittent stream that gracefully wraps the property. Using timeless principles of modern architecture, a two-story modern form complements the serenity of the home’s setting. Setbacks and roof overhangs were used to bring down the overall scale of the structure and keep the home from dominating its context. Inside, spaces traditionally organized as separate rooms are joined together to create a l…

## Community Q&A

**Q: Gorgeous, cohesive space** *(in Photo Questions)*

I love how the 3 areas of functional (living, dining, kitchen) converge so seamlessly! Could you please share any info about the dining chairs?

A: Thank you! The dining chairs are vintage Charlotte Perriand.  Yoi could probably find them on 1stdibs.

**Q: what type of flooring is that?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What type of flooring is that?

A: Du chateau

**Q: integrated limestone countertop with sink** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where should I shop for an integrated limestone countertop with sink?  Any suggestions or do I need to work with a stone supplier?  I live in Northern California.  Just not sure where to start and my husband and I would like something like this for the master bathroom.  Thank you,  Betsy

A: We typically work with a General Contractor to do something as you described.  You need to select the stone and then a fabricator would make the sinks and counter for you. A stone supplier msy be able to recomend a fabricator.  However, you will need a plumber etc. so it can be easier if you hsve one person helping coordinate everything.
