The reading library area in this log home showcases copper furniture, leather chairs, hickory, and all hand crafted. The art piece is the scene of a Native American at the creek. A stately area for a cabin don't you think!

Our homage to the native plants of Colorado, this brilliant design features the delicate glow of the summer Aspen tree and the frothy whites and light greens of wild Hops found everywhere in mountain meadows and along the banks of streams and brooks.

When the school garden teacher at my kid’s school asked if I would volunteer to design the schools learning garden I was excited by the prospect. I drew up some plans with hopes of inspiring the next generation to getting involved with stewardship of the land.
The goal was to create a space were children all abilities could have access to the process of growing food, tending to soils and recognizing the human connection with the natural world.
With an emphasis on edible plants, the garden also incorporates native plants, plants that attract pollinators and plants that build soil.
The garden includes a composting system, and a log circle to use as and out door classroom space. Unfortunately, half way through the installation of this garden the school was closed due to covid and no one was allowed on campus for 6 months. The garden fell into disrepair. As we slowly emerge from the pandemic the school is coming back to life and parent volunteers are allowed back on to campus. With that the garden is coming back as well. The rain harvesting nets and outdoor kitchen did not end up coming into reality. But through the pandemic we learned an even grater importance of outdoor class room space and the power of engaging with the outdoor world.

An angled view of the terrace level. As you come down the stairs you see comfort and rustic style. The room is complimented with leather, hickory, pottery, and barnwood. The view on the porch features cast aluminum bar stools and a sitting area. The mantle is a cedar log with lots of character. And, of course, the game table in the right corner is a special place for guests to gather. This table also turns over to be a dining room table.
