Duet Design Group had clear marching orders from the owners of this Cherry Hills Village home: Make the handmade bed the centerpiece of the master bedroom. Luckily, it wasn’t an unfamiliar task: “That bed has gone with me to every bedroom I’ve done for this client,” says Devon Tobin, co-founder of the Littleton-based firm that has designed multiple homes for the young couple—including this one. Handmade by the homeowner and his father from slabs of narra hardwood, the piece is certainly rustic, but the couple’s style isn’t as easily defined: “They are truly eclectic,” Tobin says. “They love modern, they love industrial, she has a true passion for that sophisticated luxurious look…they just love good design.” To satisfy all their tastes this time around, Duet assembled a texture-rich mix of furnishings that span the style spectrum: a feminine pair of mercury-glass-and-bronze lanterns from Currey & Company; sleek wood Sho Modern nightstands with perforated-metal bases and acrylic drawer pulls; linen curtains and Roman shades; and a showstopping abstract-watercolor wallcovering from Area Environments. “The headboard is low and the ceilings are high, so the wallcovering creates a sort of ‘headboard wall,’ ” Tobin explains. The look, though bold, is designed to last: “I like to push the limits of design in areas that are easy to change—a crazy wallcovering, bold pillows,” Tobin says. But, she adds, when it comes to the room’s foundations—walnut-paneled ceilings, site-finished white-oak floors, custom-stained baseboards—“the longevity of those is forever.” Until the next bedroom comes along.

Actors also benefited from the renovation. The theatre was known for cramped dressing rooms in the basement. Those were moved to the fourth floor, above the stage. New, wider stairwells were put in with white work lights to help the crew and blue run lights to guide actors during performance. An ETC Paradigm system runs the house and backstage lights, with ETC button stations and Touchscreens simplifying control for the crew. “We tied both of those systems together,” says McCrum. “It will be appreciated by everyone.” House lights can also be controlled via a console, thanks to ETC networking.

Ian Levin: To make them as easy to clean as possible, all of our kitchen ventilation systems are designed to comply with BESA documents DW172, DW144 and TR19. Reading, understanding and designing to these documents will ensure that any system is as easy-to-clean as practically achievable. There is however, a cost to meeting these standards and it is often difficult to compete with some of the less diligent contractors who take short-cuts in routing ductwork via in-accessible locations and fail to put adequate cleaning hatches at usable points along the duct-runs.

Fire safetyIt is appropriate to consider fire safety first because of plastic’s combustibility. Thin plastic has such little mass it provides insignificant fuel load relative to the other combustible materials in a building.
