The custom home design team at Kelly & Stone Architects is committed to creating inspired and innovative residential architecture design solutions that meet client specified wants and needs. Residential Architecture is exciting to the KSA team. There is no design challenge we will not embrace. Rather, we see those design challenges as opportunities for innovation and creativity. The joy of residential design stems from the personal relationships that form between the architect and the client. This unique relationship allows the design team to meet client specific desires. Kelly & Stone Architects has an extensive and diverse residential portfolio, from rustic western architecture to mountain modern designs. We use the opportunity to work with varied landscapes and personal styles as a way to explore many avenues of custom home design.

Kelly & Stone Architects and our principals have been involved in large-scale commercial design projects and developments, from hospitals in Texas and high-rise condominium projects in LoneTree, Colorado to restaurants and community design projects in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

Our approach to large-scale design is the same as for smaller projects: an unwavering attention to detail, sustainability, and commitment to the needs of our clients.

Our expertise allows us to create eye-catching, cost-effective 3-dimensional models and renderings for nearly any architectural or planning project.

Developers, real-estate professionals, and home owners have come to rely on KSA as a quality, affordable source for all of their rendering needs. Our background as architects provides the opportunity to add a level of detail rarely found in 3D models of this nature. Our team has experience in rendering projects of all sizes and complexity. We encourage anyone looking to effectively market their project to review our extensive portfolio of completed renderings.

Our goal in every project is to construct buildings that are less wasteful and more environmentally sound. Our staff architects are LEED accredited professionals who support national and regional green building initiatives in order to achieve energy efficient and eco-friendly buildings.

Sustainable design requires energy efficiency, resource conservation, and good indoor air quality. Kelly & Stone Architects uses an initial site analysis to understand the environmental implications of the location, so that the orientation and geometry of the building can take advantage of solar energy while protecting itself from undesirable sun, wind, and weather.

KSA works closely with energy consultants and contractors so that details critical to the building envelope are designed correctly, ensuring the building will be efficient in its use of energy and resources. The design of the mechanical system and the selection of finishes and materials are important considerations for providing healthy indoor air quality. The ultimate goal is to achieve a green home that has less impact on the environment and is healthy for the occupants. As a Gold Certified Member of the Steamboat Springs Chamber Sustainable Business Council, KSA supports local sustainability practices, including the environmental impact of our own business operations. KSA is a proponent of the adoption of a local green building code and endorses using established programs like Energy Star and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). As a member of the United States Green Building Council, KSA understands the global impact the building industry has on the environment and hopes to instill in its clients a better understanding of energy- and resource-efficient design.

Kelly & Stone Architects has experience in all aspects of construction project management including permitting, variance proceedings, planning department and city council reviews, design review board presentations, code/zoning analysis, and compliance. The architects at KSA have extensive experience providing representation and support during the construction process.

Kelly & Stone Architects has the valuable skills necessary to present and gain acceptance from local jurisdictions that oversee the building process. KSA knows the required building codes and standards in order to obtain a building permit and approval from design review boards. With experience in these entitlement proceedings, KSA can streamline and expedite the design and building process. Our knowledge of the local construction industry and close relationships with the building and planning departments give us a unique ability to effectively act on the behalf of our clientele, ensuring their projects have oversight and hands-on attention.
