BKW Architects, LLC
Architects in Pitkin County, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 February 2020
“I chose BKW Architects (Keegan Winkeller - Principle) for my full gut rehab project in Edwards, Colorado in summer of 2019. The scope of the job was to create final working plans and renders, etc. for the remodel and present to the Design Review Committee of the HOA for design approval which required a stamped plan set. Keegan has a really good eye for design and has worked on many very high end residential projects in the greater Vail, CO valley. His 14 Plus years experience in architecture along with his previous background having worked on construction projects (remodels and new builds) gives Keegan an excellent insight into really how projects need to be approached and managed both from a design, execution and budgetary perspective. His depth of knowledge and ability is superior to many in the field. He was most professional in all our dealings, during and after the project completed. I would definitely recommend BKW for any such projects and would hire them again on future projects. It was truly a pleasure doing business with BKW.”
Jess Pedersen Architecture
Architects in Pitkin County, CO

“Jess has been our architect on several projects over the past ten years. He is easy to work with, and his designs are interesting and thoughtful.

Sisson Lea Architects
Architects in Pitkin County, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 August 2023
“Working with Lea was an absolute pleasure. Her ability to hear what we were trying to create along with her architectural vision resulted in a collaboration of the most perfect home we could imagine. We wish we could build something else just to work with her again.”
Michael Silbert, Architect
Architects in Pitkin County, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 February 2017
“Michael designed my house and his design exceeded my expectations. He was very easy to work with and he really took the time to listen and incorporate our ideas into his design.”
Willis Pember Architects
Architects in Pitkin County, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 November 2015
“Willis Pember is an extremely talented architect and form maker. I have collaborated with Willis in the past and have seen a number of his projects. I would consider the new Carbondale Public Library to be one of the best public buildings to be built in the Roaring fork Valley. Whether you are considering a residential project or commercial work, Willis will bring a level of thinking to the table that very few architects are capable of offering to their clients. Glenn Rappaport Architect”
Eggers Architecture, Inc.
Architects in Pitkin County, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 December 2014
“Don is the consummate professional. I have worked w/ Din for several years and so relieved to find such a sharp, bright and driven individual; a pleasant departure from those who claim the industry experience. Don exuded creative, quality leadership skills for each of my clients I personally referred him. Trust me, he won't disappoint - he's honest and he can handle the tricky details this industry demands.”
Earl Anderson Architects, LLC
Architects in Pitkin County, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 October 2016
“I hired Earl Anderson for two different projects and have been very pleased with the outcomes. One project was drawing up plans for a dental office and the other was for a basement finish. In both instances, Earl had suggestions that I had not thought of to improve the final results. Earl was easy to get along with, knowledgeable, and worked together with the general contractors to make sure that the final projects were completed according to plan. I would highly recommend Earl Anderson for any Commercial or Residential project that you may be considering.”

Architects in Pitkin County, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 May 2018
“We wanted to expand our house in the mountains, and MPP was a suggested architect. It was a tough design as there was not a lot of space to make it work. Michael’s design exceeded expectations - the house is now awesome and it still fits right into the neighborhood. He did a great job !!”

A well-chosen architect can design a home that is specifically tailored to your family's lifestyle. Highly competent and professionally-trained designers, many architects in Pitkin County, CO also use sustainable design principles to maximise the site and materials used, so your home uses less energy and saves you money in the long term.

If your renovation is more than a simple benchtop replacement or roof re-tiling job, then it may be time to find an architect in Pitkin County, CO who can manage your project from start to finish. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, the scope can span from planning sustainable design into your renovations, to selecting furniture and even interior finishes.

How do I find the right architect for my home design project?


An architect is often the first person you hire for your project. Before taking steps to find an architect in Pitkin County, CO, ask yourself what you want to achieve from your renovation or home construction. Do you want to improve the liveability and sustainability of your home, or simply expand? What style of architecture do you prefer? Once you have established your motivation, research architects that have completed similar house designs in your Pitkin County locale and within a comparable budget to yours.

Undergoing renovations, house extensions or building a new home entirely can be stressful. For this reason, it’s important that you and your chosen architect get along and share the same values, especially if you require an architect to help you refine your brief. To establish this rapport, you may need to meet several times with the architects on your shortlist before making a final decision on who you hire. The relationship you have with your architect is very personal, and will involve discussions of your habits, hobbies and tastes, so you want to ensure you have picked someone you feel comfortable in sharing this information with.

Most importantly, you need to trust that your architect will manage your home improvement or house design within budget, while working with site constraints, and coordinating the relationships of all parties involved in the project.

Ideally, your Pitkin County, CO architect will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Your architect may be needed to select and hire Colorado subcontractors (e.g. builders, engineers and landscape architects) just as they may need to negotiate contracts with stakeholders. A good client-architect relationship will ensure they are your biggest advocate along the way during construction.

Finally, remember that the most well-known or established architect may not provide the right architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project.
