Small spaces demand more.
More thought, more intention, more precision.

Concealed spaces, custom built-ins, and multifunctional moments allow the home to adapt seamlessly across uses.

Having worked with these clients on multiple homes, we really understood how they live. Between coasts, between stays, and often in transition. We designed the space to support that rhythm whiile functioning as both personal retreat and the potential to be a refined short-term rental.

The result is a home that feels efficient, elevated, and quietly complex.

Set on Pearl Street, The Boulder Move reimagines a former motel into a highly customized, boutique-style condo.

Working within a compact footprint, every element was designed with purpose. 

Because showing is better than telling
