Dining chairs by EuroCraft surround a family-sized table, with a Plus pendant by AlexAllen Studio above, and “Roots” by Heidi Jung adorning the wall. A Belle pendant light, by David Trubridge, hangs in the neighboring hearth room.
Fortunately, some folks just refuse to accept defeat. When the East Texas-based owners of this splendid Colorado getaway missed the chance to buy a different place in Avon’s Mountain Star community (“It was the most beautiful home we’ve ever seen,” the homeowner recalls), they might have simply given up.
But instead, they went to work and enlisted the exact same team who had built that place—architect, contractor and interior designer—to reunite and create another home just for their own family.
“We called it the dream team,” the homeowner explains, “and we said, we’ll just hire them.” So, the capable, local crew—consisting of architect Brian Judge, founding principal of Vail’s Judge + Associates; Viele Construction; and interior designer Dana Hugo, of j&o studio—came back together to tackle the new project on a nearby site overlooking Beaver Creek and Bachelor Gulch.
