Kitchen Confidential

I

t’s a well-known fact (at least to those who know me) that although I hate to cook, I have an obsessive love of kitchenware. Shiny utensils, high-tech tools and pretty serving bowls are stacked and stored in spaces all over my kitchen and beyond. I collect milk glass, teapots and cream-and-sugar sets.

And I own more cake pans, pie dishes and tart forms than would ever be considered necessary. (But in my defense, I do like to bake, and I actually use those.)

So it’s always fun for me to discover what’s new in the world of kitchen products while scouting lovely and useful items for our annual Kitchen Issue. (See our roundup, starting on page 19.)

Continuing the theme, we’re excited to catch up with chef and world traveler Michele Morris (page 29), who teaches cooking classes in her own kitchen and around the globe, writes cookbooks and devotes an impressive amount of time helping organizations that work to end childhood hunger.

Then we get to the heart of the matter: a peek inside four wonderful residences that revolve around the culinary heart of the home. It was great to learn that every one of these kitchens was designed to be more than a showpiece. These spaces are functional and hardworking, made to be used by busy, hungry families. After all, isn’t that what good design is all about?

Cheers,

Mary Barthelme Abel Editor in Chief mabel@coloradohomesmag.com

Vintage Copper: I am a coffee fiend, and when I saw this Jacob Bromwell Vintage Coffee Pot, I knew I had to have it. Then I learned that eponymous company has been making this exact coffee pot from pure copper since 1819—sold. Get your own through Bespoke Global, a website that features some of the finest artisans in the world. bespokeglobal.com Cream-and-Sugar Sets: My late father also loved his morning cup, but he would often grumble, “If you’re gonna drink coffee, you should learn to drink it black.” I’ve never heeded that advice, perhaps because I love cream-and-sugar sets. This set, by Carl Mertens for the Verso Collection, will be a delightfully modern addition to my decidedly vintage collection. ameico.com So much tile, so little space: If it were socially acceptable, I would tile every square inch of my home with some of the amazingly bold, colorful and intricate tiles that are flooding the market these days. How can we possibly choose just one? Here’s just a small sampling from Denver Design District’s Decorative Materials. decorativematerials.com

I’ve been “ cooking since

I was a little kid... my mom always encouraged me, and that’s probably why I enjoy cooking with children so much today.

”

—Michele Morris

COLORADOHOMESMAG.COM

Morris is also a prolific writer of food columns, and in 2013 she penned Tasting Colorado, a beautiful and practical cookbook of recipes from top working chefs around the state. The book recently won the Colorado Book Award for general nonfiction. Morris not only gathered and tested the 120 recipes, she also photographed all of the dishes. Her latest book, A Taste of Washington features recipes from Washington State’s best chefs.

“I’ve been cooking since I was a little kid,” says Morris, who at fourteen prepared a complete Chinese feast from scratch for her mother’s birthday.

“My mom always encouraged me, and that’s probably why I enjoy cooking with children so much today.”

Based in Denver, Morris teaches adult and children’s cooking classes from her spacious home kitchen, which is outfitted with an oversized island to accommodate students, a professional Wolf range, a large Sub-Zero refrigerator and two farmhouse sinks. “I’d rather have a pair of sinks to stash pans than two dishwashers; you can always do dishes later,” she explains.

And she recently started taking her show on the road. After Morris attended a class at a cooking school in Italy, the owner suggested Morris return with a group of her own students from Colorado. “I discovered I loved putting together culinary trips,” Morris says. “We just finished our fifth trip to Puglia, in southern Italy, where the food is classic Mediterranean.

Next year we’re going to France, Germany and Italy.”

Much of Michele Morris’s considerable energy is devoted to doing good in the culinary world. She’s a Hall of Fame Chef for Share Our Strength’s Cooking Matters program, which shows families how to stretch food budgets and prepare healthy, affordable meals, and she is also a contributing

Footnotes

What are a few of your favorite new Colorado restaurants?

Acorn, Beast + Bottle, Gozo and Session Kitchen serve really creative food and are also fun for brunch on the weekends.

What’s your favorite thing to cook?

Anything I cook for friends! I love to create multi-course dinners with a theme—like Italian, Colorado-grown or “The Whole Hog”—and serve them with wine pairings.

What’s the most memorable meal you ever ate?

I’ll never forget things like my first salade aux chèvre chaud in Paris, a true Belgian waffle in Bruges, a perfect thin-crust pizza with prosciutto and arugula in Italy, or a comforting bowl of chicken broth with noodles and vegetables served for breakfast in Beijing. Travel, for me, is as much about the food as it is anything else, and recalling those meals helps me remember the wonderful places I’ve been fortunate enough to visit.

What are your feelings about trendy foods like kale, kimchi, cronuts and quinoa?

Some hip ingredients—like kale and quinoa—serve a useful purpose by helping to educate our communities about eating healthy foods. Others, like kimchi, reflect our ever-expanding palates as we seek to experience new cuisines. But trends like cronuts just seem a little silly to me!

gardener for Produce for Pantries—a grassroots initiative that provides fresh fruits and veggies to local food pantries. Morris also helps Denver Public Schools students cook with produce they’ve grown in school gardens, and rarely encounters picky eaters in those settings. “They make sandwiches from just-picked radishes, and ratatouille with garden vegetables,” Morris says. “I’ve discovered that if kids grow it, they will usually eat it.”

Michele Morris may have too many titles to fit on a business card, but one common theme runs through all of her endeavors. “I want people to know how to cook and feed themselves good, healthy food,” Morris says.

“To me that’s just a basic, very important necessity.”

COLORADOHOMESMAG.COM

What’s a good dish for a novice cook to prepare?

I encourage people to learn to cook without recipes so they can have more flexibility based on the foods they have on hand. Pasta dishes are easy to play around with, because you can combine vegetables and protein with herbs and seasonings, toss it all together and create a fabulous, easy meal.

After writing Tasting Colorado and traveling all over the state, what food do you think most exemplifies Colorado cuisine?

Ingredients like peaches, bison, chiles, and lamb certainly seem iconic for our state, but I think what really defines our cuisine is more of a commitment to locally grown, organic and sustainable foods. The farmers, restaurateurs and chefs I’ve met seem deeply committed to these principles.

What’s it like teaching three-year-olds how to make sushi?

They’re better at it than you might think!

Children do tend to want to overstuff their rolls, so I work with them to help them make a smooth, tight wrap with just the right amount of filling.

Boulder-based jewelry designer Todd Reed takes materials other designers overlook— such as uncut diamonds and recycled gold—and turns them into wearable objets d’art. His work embraces both couture sophistication and simple beauty, making it a favorite among jewelry aficionados on the hunt for one-of-a-kind pieces. That Reed is devoted both to his craft and to good stewardship of the earth makes his work all the more irresistible

This one says, ‘I’m shy.’ I often think it’s not so much about the jewelry; maybe the jewelry is just the vehicle the wearer wants to communicate about herself.

Tell us about your selection of materials.

The sustainability aspect is important to us. We never buy diamonds that are coming out of a mine. We use recycled gold, and we get upcycled diamonds. We encourage people to reuse what they have: 68 percent of my work is custom, and I love when someone walks in with a broken pearl and a pear-shaped tanzanite from her great-grandmother and asks me to create something new.

Why uncut diamonds?

They’re fantastic. They’re literally as they come out of the ground. We don’t alter them in any way. They’re brown or tequila or orange, bluish or pinkish. Grays are my favorite. All of these diamonds fall outside of what society calls a quality diamond.

Everyone knows the four Cs of diamonds—color, clarity, cut and carat weight—but we believe there’s a fifth C: character. These diamonds tell a much more interesting story than the typical cut diamond, which is really just about communicating status.

Let’s start at the beginning: How did you become a jewelry designer?

I started as a hand-stitcher at a leather clothing company. I loved making a living by making things with my hands. I was only 17, but that dialogue of craftsmen really inspired me. I was making the ornaments—the buttons, the clasps, the componentry of leather handbags or pants—and I discovered a passion there. People would ask me, ‘Could I just get those buttons made into a pair of earrings?’ And I would say, ‘Yes, I can do that.’

Eventually, I realized that I wanted to make jewelry, so I taught myself and honed this vocabulary—a clearer vision of what I wanted my jewelry to 38

COLORADOHOMESMAG.COM

communicate. My goal all along was to build a heritage brand, which is different than selling a product.

Was there a moment when you realized you could make a living as a jewelry designer?

I knew it would be a process. Artists mostly flail and figure it out, over and over, so there’s not one ‘aha’ moment.

There were many. I knew I could sell an item once or twice, but could I do it again and again?

At the beginning, I had employees working at my studio while I was working at someone else’s studio for money. Like I said, if I was only trying to sell a thing, I could do that, but I knew I wanted to build a

business and a brand. I grew the business the old-school way, slowly and carefully, with a strong purpose and an eye on how we do everything.

And when you look around your studio today, how do you describe your jewelry’s aesthetic?

That’s a tough question for me. I try not to define too much. I look at my work as object art: it’s jewelry and it’s wearable. Craftsmanship is the most important thing to me, and I love to play with texture, shadows, and shapes.

And of course, it’s contemporary.

We make 6,000 pieces a year, and each is unique. Each one is saying something. This one says, ‘I’m sexy.’

Speaking of telling a story, what do you think draws people to your work?

Let’s talk about your design process. Are you designing every day?

I don’t know. It’s a continuum. People use things for different reasons. People might be drawn to my work because they’ve been looking for something that fills the void of symbology. When they find us, they’re excited. There are people who want jewelry that has meaning past the object and price. For other people, they love our commitment to sustainability.

My favorite is the romantic part.

Women want to feel sexy and engaged; they want to rock something that is a means of self-expression. In other words, you can get a thing, or you can get a thing that makes you want to talk about it, or about your story.

I think we’re all looking for connection, and I’m a living designer.

That might appeal to people, and it’s certainly satisfying for me. I get to interact with people, fascinating people, and hear their stories, all the time.

Yes, every day. I’m always drawing, seeing if an idea is going to take root, but the designs I do every day aren’t necessarily pieces that will become jewelry. I have my own passions and desires that I have to express through art.

As for the jewelry, there are two versions of what drives my design: there’s the romantic version, in which I design because it makes my heart race and I’m an artist. There’s the practical version, in which I design because we have 50 carats of diamonds that need to be used. I do them both, and I do them both with gusto.

I’m young and I’m into it: I don’t feel like design is the issue. The issue is mostly production capacity. I’ve got enough design to sink ships.

And plenty of those people are celebrities. Why not work in LA or New York?

Why do you choose to live here?

It’s my home. I like the landscape. I like the quiet energy. I travel a lot, so I get to go a lot of places, but this feels the best to me. My inspiration comes more from the natural world than the manmade world, and here, I’m closer to light and shadow and earth and tone.

I’ve always kept a showroom in LA, and I have an apartment there. Here, I’m riding bikes with my 12-year-old daughter and playing golf, hanging out with people who have similar value structures. I feel good and open here.

You say publicly that you want to create jewelry that’s humble and powerful.

What does that mean?

The humility part is restraint, especially when it comes to luxury. I prefer humility in the arts, which has been utterly missed. There’s this idea that bigger, better, glitzier is best. I don’t want to have to use every trick I know to create something that people respond to.

The power part—I think there’s a ‘speak quietly and carry a big stick’ element to my work. Jewelry has some value beyond how it looks. It means something, and that’s powerful if the meaning is genuine and reflects something true about the person wearing it.

Heirloom-Quality Design A 1965 ranch home in Cherry Hills undergoes a major reimagining and renovation to become a family gathering space designed with future generations in mind

69

By Lacey Howard Photography by Emily Minton Redfield

M

ost empty nesters, when faced with the prospect of purchasing a 1965 Classic Ranch Revival with a tiny kitchen, low ceilings, and two unwanted swimming pools, would turn and run. But one visionary couple said yes to the mess.

While the property’s mature trees, breathtaking views, and surrounding golf course were certainly the lot’s best features, the owners also saw a glimmer of promise in the dated home—a place where they could entertain their large family and welcome their grandchildren for holidays and celebrations. “Our clients had great vision, and the fortitude to go through with it,” says Californiabased interior designer Jan Turner Hering. “They were very brave.”

The couple assembled a team of talented professionals: architect Paul Mahony of KGA Studio Architects, Matt Bondarewicz of Bond General Contractors, and Hering of Jan Turner Hering Interior Design.

The challenge, Bondarewicz says, was building a home “that was fitting for such a special piece of property while trying to utilize as much of the existing structure as possible.” The team, with their open-minded clients, Hering says, forged the best possible combination. “We all brought various pieces of the puzzle.”

56

(previous pages) “We space-planned the kitchen for gatherings,” Hering says, with Christopher Peacock cabinetry in a paint called Calcium and a custom-stained finish. “They have a truly meticulously hand-brushed finish that needs to be seen up close to appreciate the beauty,” says contractor Matt Bondarewicz. Locker-style doors and hardware conceal the refrigerator. Overhead, vintage nickel pendants echo the metal accent found on drawer and cabinet pulls and the bar area’s upper-cabinet grillwork. Gray slate tiles from Artistic Tile form the backsplash above honed Carrara marble countertops. (above) Beneath the range hood, the slate mingles with polished stainless steel to create a mosaic pattern. Wood floors throughout the home are white oak. (right) The dining room, while open to the other gathering spaces on the main floor, maintains an air of intimacy with a lower ceiling and an inlaid pattern on the wood floor. Twin chandeliers from Wired Lighting and wallpaper from Fromental lend the room a bit of playful panache.

71

Once an upper-level addition and the indoor and outdoor pools were removed, the team began reimagining what Hering called “the most classical 1960s house with pink toilets.” Mahony transformed the main and second floors, filled with many tiny, low-ceilinged rooms, into a voluminous, open-plan main level where the living room, kitchen, and family room congregate without division. “We applied a modern twist to a classic style so that it works for today’s lifestyle,” Mahony explains. (above) The lower level media room mixes the glamorous look the homeowners wanted, with an added note of comfort. “Here, we turned to textures and things that would give great serviceability with family,” designer Jan Turner Hering says.

Upholstered pieces from A. Rudin, a Masland rug, and art by Helen Zarin soften the wood-paneled room, while a modern, stacked, chiseled-face slate fireplace surround has a contemporary flavor and doors open wide to the loggia. (left) The towering living room windows capture the property’s selling feature: the enviable view. “This room used to have very low ceilings,” designer Jan Turner Hering says. “Now it has a view of the golf course to the Rocky Mountains and it feels like you’re standing on the edge of Colorado.” A tufted leather loveseat from J. Robert Scott is perfectly situated to gaze at art pieces on the glass coffee table: a rock crystal link sculpture from Robert Kuo and a Lucite bowl from J. Robert Scott. (opposite) A Donghia chandelier suspended from the living room’s newly built, two-story ceiling sparkles above furnishings from J. Robert Scott, a custom rug from Tai Ping, and lamps from Nancy Corzine. The art over the fireplace—an Ali Golkar painting— is from the homeowner’s collection. “The consoles on either side of the fireplace are polished stainless with black granite tops and the mirrors behind them take you beyond that room,” says Hering.

A showplace kitchen, centered around a large island, caters to the owners’ lifestyle and love of entertaining. It’s a grand space with furniture-like Christopher Peacock cabinetry in a mix of painted and wood finishes, honed Carrara marble countertops, and a backsplash of slate tiles.

The luxurious design modifications continue in the main-floor master suite, where Mahony created a bedroom and bath with vaulted ceilings and a large closet. “The original master bath was actually in several rooms with the tub separated from the bath,” he recalls. Today’s version offers a single space with a curbless shower, his-and-her vanities, and a tub for soaking while also soaking in the mountain views.

On the lower level, two new guest suites take the place of the indoor pool, welcoming visitors, while “the outdoor pool was replaced with an expansive entertainment patio,” according to Mahony. A recreation room paneled in sequenced quarter-sawn white oak is the media and gaming hub of the home, perfect for time with the grandkids.

In the end, the home is not only welcoming; it also earned a Platinum rating for residential design excellence from the National Association of Home Builders’ Best in American Living Awards. It’s a space that will see a lot more happiness in years to come. “The homeowners were designing for themselves,” Mahony says, “but with the idea that the home should pass down through future generations.”

(opposite, top) This lower-level guest room features a bed, bedding, and bench custom-designed by Hering, along with bedside tables, a Parsons chair, Swaim desk, Phillip Jeffries wallpaper, Aleece Briggs draperies, and floor covering from Unique Carpets. (opposite, bottom left) The new main-floor library offers a private retreat just off the open-plan public spaces. The cozy room features very little color— apart from the homeowner’s Dale Chihuly artwork.

Textured Phillip Jeffries wallpaper, Stark carpet, Jiun Ho upholstered furnishings, and campaign tables from J. Robert Scott lend the room stay-a-while comfort.

“The view,” Hering says,” is like that of a tree house.” (opposite, bottom right, and above) The master bath is a study in luxury: white Calcutta marble tops both his-and-her vanities and her dressing table, and the mirrors are surrounded by tiny mother-of-pearl tiles.

Christopher Peacock cabinets in a Calcium finish have a furniture-like look, complete with nickel feet and topped with Rohl plumbing fixtures. A mosaic of Calcutta marble and onyx graces the floor’s inlaid rug and the shower’s wall with delicate pattern. “The interiors were incredibly dated and the layout, due to the age of the architecture and having withstood a couple of very misguided additions and remodels, was disjointed and awkward,” Mahony says.

Good things come in small packages when landscape, light, and low-key luxury combine in a contemporary aerie amidst the pines

Of Sunshine and Simplicity 68

69

By Laura beausire Photography by Kimberly gavin

I (previous page) The open kitchen and dining space is awash with natural light. Rusted metal accent walls echo the home’s exterior cladding and provide a mellow blaze of color in the heart of the home. The one-of-a-kind dining table was made from an old maple tree that once graced the grounds of Boulder High School. The homeowner explains, “A guy named Billy worked with us to build the table, which is based on a classic Nakashima design.

We call it our Billy Nakashima table.” It is surrounded by Niels Møller chairs from Design Within Reach and topped with Fungi vases from HW Home. (above, left) “We did not want any cabinetry above counter level in the kitchen,” the homeowner explains. “Instead, we opted for open shelving.

n the foothills high above Boulder, on the crest of a ridge near Sunshine Canyon, there’s an elegant gem of a house tucked into the woods. While the land may be raw and undeveloped, this small home with great big views is an exercise in sophisticated simplicity.

Architect Stephen Dynia, of Denver- and Jackson Hole, WY-based Dynia Architects, designed the house, and he was happy to help his clients realize their request for a restrained aesthetic: “This house has a monastic modesty to it,” he says. And that’s just what the homeowners had in mind. While the clean lines of modern design inspired them, they also felt drawn to the warmth of natural materials and time-honored Western motifs. So the home’s oxidized steel cladding is an elegant reference to the rusted sheds of the Old West, and the rough, corrugated exterior walls recall the weathered bark of ponderosa pines.

Blending into the landscape was a priority from the start. The homeowners were adamant about respecting their natural surroundings, and they felt that having a well-integrated

71

house with a compact footprint was an important aspect of living lightly upon their 35-acre property. With eastern, southern and western exposure, the site offers views of the plains, the city of Boulder and the Front Range foothills, and even the frosty peaks of the Continental Divide.

Inside, the home is filled with light. “We wanted light from every time of day to reach virtually every room in the house,” the homeowner says, explaining, “The simple geometry of the house—one large volume enclosing a smaller interior volume for private rooms and storage—allows light to pass through the house as if it were transparent.” The effect is magical, creating what the homeowner describes as “a lovely projection of sunlight and tree shadows on walls.” Dynia framed the spectacular views and welcomed the Colorado sunshine with generous rows of high-quality, energy-efficient windows. “You feel like you’re outside,” the architect notes.

Since they live in the middle of a forest, the homeowners made some commonsense (and down-to-earth) decisions: the home is heated by a wood-burning boiler; the living room is warmed by a wood-burning stove; and the family—and friends—are often fed by a wood-burning oven.

When a home is this unadorned, the choice of materials needs to be meticulous. Here, the floors are concrete, which is beautiful and functional at once, allowing radiant floor heating and providing a large thermal mass to maximize passive solar gain. The ceilings are finished with a handsome, clear-coated hemlock. As the homeowner explains, “Instead of putting beautiful wood on the floor, The airy and bright living room keeps cozy in winter thanks to a stylish Italian woodburning stove. Built-in bookshelves climb one wall, while huge windows open up the home’s interiors to the light and the forest. An Arco lamp bows down above a color-splashed Rex Ray rug from ShaverRamsey, and pillows from HW Home jazz up a sofa from Room & Board.

63

where it would get worn down and would interfere with the thermal functions of the underlying concrete, we put it on the ceiling.”

Dynia designed the narrow, 2,300-square-foot home as a series of eight 12-foot bays, and that strict governing geometry lends a serene clarity to the open and airy interior spaces. “The order of the house is comforting compared to the disorder of nature,” Dynia observes. The home’s private areas 68

(opposite, top) Architect Stephen Dynia designed a big overhang to shade the large windows and the patio. “We eat dinner out there all summer long,” says the homeowner. (opposite, bottom) With a passion for food and cooking, the homeowners keep an abundant garden filled with greens, beans and all sorts of wholesome veggies. The high fence keeps out deer, and the chicken coop nearby provides a stylish home to four hens. (this page, top) The home’s oxidized steel cladding recalls vintage Western sheds and barns. The walkway connecting to the front entrance is actually a kind of bridge that allows water to pass beneath it during storms. (this page, bottom) Calling the setting “uncivilized,” Dynia says, “We left the landscape as unaffected as we could.”

The homeowners worked with R Design Land Architects and Nettle Landscaping to restore topographic swales and ridges, original wildflowers and grasses.

are divided into three modestlysized “chambers,” comprised of the master bedroom, study and child’s room, each measuring “barely 12-by-12.” The living room, kitchen and pantry flow together as a unified and functional space.

The homeowners love to cook, and they had clear ideas about their work area, so the kitchen was the focus of intense design discussion.

“They wanted simple functionality,” recalls Stephen Dynia, “to see

stuff and have it available.” Open shelves hold essential items that are frequently used, and an enormous island affords an expansive butcher block surface above and ample storage below, leaving room for a couple of stools as well. Unadorned maple cabinets and honed Carrara marble provide a fresh counterpoint to the rusted metal accent wall behind the cooking area.

Though its sleek minimalism may look effortless, there’s a great

deal of calculation behind the home’s clean, contemporary design.

“Simplicity gets there through a very busy process,” Dynia notes, praising the homeowners’ clarity of communication as an essential tool for building a fruitful collaboration. “The simplicity of the house highlights the eccentricities of nature,” he remarks.

And with a Colorado landscape this extravagantly beautiful, it’s a worthy tribute.

A Charming Renovation

Denver interior designer Amy Corrigan shows what it takes to turn an empty box into a modern family cottage

hen interior designer Amy Corrigan spotted a charming little cottage on a grand lot in Denver’s stately Cherry Hills neighborhood, she knew she had to have it. But upon closer inspection—specifically, stepping through the front door—she discovered that she couldn’t judge this book by its cover. “It was a little 1930s cottage, with nothing on the inside except a lot of exposed brick, a bad addition and a small kitchen,” says Corrigan, who, with her husband, decided to make the move from (previous page) Vintage wicker bar stools are just one of the many finds that homeowner, interior designer and enthusiastic collector Amy Corrigan used to decorate her renovated home. “I think they’re fun and unexpected against the dark kitchen cabinetry.” (above) The casual dining area is separated from Corrigan’s home office by Aspen Leaf Kitchens custom cabinetry. (left) Open and light, the great room showcases Corrigan’s love of collecting. “The blue sofa table is the first antique I ever bought and it has worked in every place I’ve lived.” (opposite) The family room features a cozy sectional perfect for watching television or reading to children.

Washington, D.C. back to her hometown of Denver to start a family. “We wanted to bring the home up to par with the rest of neighborhood; to bring it back to its historic look with classic moldings and fill it with pieces I’ve been collecting since college.”

And so they hired architect Steve Barsch and embarked on a year-long renovation, gutting the interior and creating large, open spaces that work for a young, modern family. “This project was great because we started with a clean state,” Corrigan explains. “We had an empty box, nothing to lead the design, and were able to start fresh.” And while she loves finding furnishings and collecting antiques and pottery, Corrigan admits that her first passion is trim work, moldings and hardware. “I think before you can fill the home with treasures, you have to start with the architecture.”

Once the bones were set, Corrigan made a surprising choice in finishes.

Although ebony-stained floors are the current trend, she went with a light hardwood as the foundation on which to arrange her collected furnishings.

“I love French antiques and tapered legs; it’s nice to showcase them on a lighter floor.”

That lightness, along with large windows, bright-white moldings and classic, neutral upholstery throughout the home, balances the darker furnishings and layers of collected treasures. The result is a serene environment (above) The formal living room’s fireplace is the only link to the original home. Quiet furnishings and an abundance of natural light make for a restful space. (left) A small antique table offers space for homework or a card game. (opposite) Gold touches add glamour to the formal dining room, highlighted by one of Corrigan’s favorite finds: an antique James Mont console and mirror. Simple slipcovers lighten up the dark table.

(left) Corrigan turned a neglected 1930s cottage into a charming-yetfunctional family home.

that Corrigan, a business owner and mother of three small children, wanted. “We live a chaotic, busy life so I like to come home to this peacefulness.”

But for all its quiet comfort, the home certainly isn’t lacking in personality. Corrigan’s fondness for the concept of “high-low” decorating—mixing heiroom-quality designer pieces with more wallet-friendly items—is apparent in virtually every room. A Dessin Fournir table surrounded by Ikea chairs in the formal dining room, and a Lamps Plus chandelier mixed with Brunschwig fabric-upholstered walls in the nursery, are just a few examples of the designer’s flair for matching the grand with the humble.

A completely reconfigured upstairs made way for a large-yet-cozy master bedroom. Although the room is entirely new, the dormered ceiling and fireplace make the space appear as though it was original to the house.

Corrigan designed the headboard and covered it with dark green fabric, then worked her high-low magic, filling the room with new and collected pieces. The vintage trunk sits on an Ikea table, while the leaf prints above it were found on eBay and framed. “I love my bedroom,” says Corrigan.

“It’s not terribly neutral, but it’s soft and calming.”

Corrigan says she’s ecstatic with the results and with the way the home works for her young family. “We’ve lived here for four years and we absolutely love it. It’s light, clean and classic, and really fits our lifestyle.”

(previous pages) Richard Mullen’s domain is the kitchen, and Barbara admits that it is command central. Beautiful as the space may be, both Mullens stress that it was built to be used. After the Mullens moved in and spent some time in their open kitchen, Barbara realized that everyone gathered there and that seating was lacking. She purchased a 10-foot-long sofa (covered in purple and white Jasper fabric) and installed it along the wall of windows facing the kitchen island. To make it even more functional, she added two square white tables that can be used for eating, homework or cocktail hour. (above, left) Calcutta Gold marble tops the counters, while espresso-stained white oak cabinets provide clean lines—all to highlight the Wolf range, Richard’s must-have appliance. (above, right) A mixture of new and vintage furniture, the living room is a study in texture and color. “I mixed an orange chair with a black-and-white tweed couch, two chartreuse leather chairs, and a vintage rope-and-wood chair,“ the designer says.

hen architect Richard Mullen and his interior designer wife Barbara, principles of CarolineEdwards Interior Design in Aspen, decided to build a home on property they’d owned for five years, they discovered a level of personal and professional joy they’d not experienced before.

“We love working with our clients,” says Barbara, ”but to do a project for ourselves was the best. We had a great time making decisions together, selecting pieces, fulfilling our wish lists.”

Though the architecture of the house went through many permutations before its current incarnation, the 81

White walls predominate throughout the first floor, but the home is anything but colorless.

(opposite) The well-appointed dining room features Aspen artist Karl Wolfgang’s photos and a 1940s vintage chandelier.

The burled wood table— a mid-century modern touch— belonged to Barbara’s parents; the chairs were purchased on 1stDibs.com and reupholstered. (right) The custom stair railing adds a decorative touch to the otherwise clean-lined space.

The double-sided fireplace is adorned with a pen-and-ink drawing the couple found years ago in Santa Fe.

Mullens knew it was worth the process to arrive at just the right orientation for the narrow lot. “The home is two boxes—one is the garage, and the other is the living quarters, joined together by a mudroom,” explains Barbara. The goal was to maximize the square footage because the family of three entertains often and wanted the main level to flow from living room to dining room, through to the kitchen and outdoors.

High on the must-have list was a great kitchen, where Richard is the chef. “I wanted to be able to prepare a meal while being part of the party,” he says, adding that although the kitchen is a stunning example of clean lines and minimalism, it was designed to be used, not to be a showpiece. The counters are Calcutta Gold marble and show the patina of five years of daily use. “We are not perfectionists,” explains Barbara. The star of this space is Richard’s Wolf range. “Once you cook on one of these,” he says, “you’ll never want to cook on anything else.”

83

(left) One of three bedrooms on the second floor, the master bedroom pairs crisp white linens with a Moroccan Suzani textile—one of Barbara’s all-time favorite acquisitions.

“It’s the starting point of any room I put it in.”

The art above the bed is a collage of pieces the Mullens have collected over the years.

84

One of Barbara’s great contributions—after living with the kitchen for a while—was to add a ten-foot sofa against a wall of windows that face the island. It makes for a great quiet corner or a gathering place for guests who want to sit and chat.

White walls predominate throughout the first floor, but the home is anything but colorless. Barbara loves mixing up bright colors, nowhere more obviously than in the living room, where orange, chartreuse, yellow, blue and green all play well together. “I can’t exactly say how I knew they all went together,” she says. “It was more trial and error.”

In lieu of elaborate architectural details, the Mullens opted for judiciously placed decorative touches.

The stair railing near the dining room is one such example, as is the yellow trellis wallpaper in the guest bathroom. “We added these in places where they would surprise and delight,” says Barbara.

As projects go, this was a dream, created by a dream team of two who just happened to be their own dream clients. Or, as Barbara simply concludes, “We did it right. We got exactly what we wanted.”

(center) Just as the kitchen is Richard’s domain, so the master bath is Barbara’s. “I love to relax in there at the end of a long day,” she says.

Calcutta gold marble is repeated here, along with vintage Asian-inspired hardware bought in Los Angeles.

The art over the tub, bought at an Aspen antiques fair, hides the TV that Barbara watches while she soaks. (left) Eight-year-old George Mullen sleeps in a bedroom that carries through his mom’s love of blue and orange. A Jonathan Adler lamp adds the requisite touch of white and whimsy. (below) The house was designed as a series of boxes to make the most of the narrow lot. (One box is the garage; the other, the family’s living quarters.) Cedar siding and limestone blocks clad the exterior, allowing the house to fit naturally in its surroundings. Richard’s clever addition of overhanging eaves keeps the house from getting too hot while also allowing for unadorned windows.

mines closed in the 1950s, Louisville transitioned to a suburban residential community.

Two Boulder County communities that sprung up during the late 1800s as coal mining camps offer small-town charm at affordable prices.

Today 100-year-old wooden buildings line Main, Front and Pine streets in the community’s historic downtown. The area is home to more than 100 businesses, including restaurants, stores and a variety of professional services. The town also has a thriving art scene, with galleries studios and live music almost every night of the week.

Louisville and Superior are part of the Boulder Valley School District, which consistently ranks among the top three of Colorado’s large front range school districts.

Founded in 1877 with the opening of the Welch Mine, Louisville is named for Louis Nawatny, who platted his farm into the town. Coal miners moved to the town to work in the new, safer mine. When the

People are taking note. The average number of days a home is on the market has declined steadily, from 66 homes during the first quarter last year to just 43 homes in the second quarter. The number of homes sold has also increased from 74 during the first quarter to 133 in the second quarter. And sellers are typically getting the prices they’re asking for.

Louisville has also been ranked among the best places to live and raise a family in the United States

by CNNMoney, Money® magazine and Family Circle® magazine.

“It’s just a nice, hot little area,” said Brian Mygatt, an independent associate broker with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Boulder. “Louisville has charm, a nice downtown, night life and family life. It’s lots of fun.”

Though it shares a coal-mining history with Louisville, Superior is more of a suburban-type community, with the Rock Creek Ranch master planned community as its focal point. There are nearly 3,000 single and multi-family homes, two neighborhood schools, two community pools, 12 playgrounds and four major parks. Rock Creek also boasts approximately 27 miles of walking paths and about 594 acres of open space.

The median price of homes sold during the first half of the year in Louisville and Superior was $473,500.

This is more than $200,000 less than the median sale price of homes in Boulder at $675,000, and Boulder is just five miles away.

“With both towns being just outside of Boulder, you get the best of all worlds and a little bit more for your money,” Mygatt said.

Coming Home to

Jerome

Chef Rob Zack was drawn to the

Rocky Mountains as a young man, and has been cooking for hotel guests from Telluride to Snowmass ever since. Now he’s come full circle as the Executive Chef of Aspen’s Hotel Jerome, the place where he started his career as a line cook 20 years ago

O

By Mary Barthelme Abel

hio native Rob Zack says that he started cooking by accident, but once he tells the story of his farmer grandfather who made his own wine and could whip up a mean linguini and clam sauce, it comes to seem that preparing good food is in Zack’s blood. “I love the creativity, discipline and process of cooking,” Zack explains. “And I enjoy bringing people together and creating an emotional experience. Few professions can do that.”

When Zack was presented with the opportunity to take over as Executive Chef for the newly-renovated Hotel Jerome, he jumped at the chance to return to the place where he started as a line cook 20 years ago, and relished the opportunity to renovate the menu to match the freshened-up historic landmark. “We offer everything from great burgers to high-end steaks in Prospect restaurant, and the J-Bar is a hip place to have a cocktail and an appetizer.”

Along with new food items, Zack has dug through the archives and brought back some old favorites that are once again popular with a new clientele. But Zack’s philosophy for all his dishes is the same: Use fresh ingredients and prepare them correctly. “Instinct is important to cooks,” Zack says. “The ultimate success is when people come back.”

Ripe with Possibility From dining in an orchard to sipping wine by a waterfall, many delicious experiences await in Colorado’s premier grape-growing region, the Grand Valley

­B y Erin English

I

n the same way the majestic mountain landscape of Ouray draws frequent comparison to the Swiss Alps, the 32,000 acres of sprawling vineyards centered around the Western Slope town of Palisade could be considered Colorado’s version of French wine country. But in fact, the Grand Valley American Viticultural Area (AVA)—as it is officially called—is a wine region unlike anywhere else in the world.

What makes the Palisade area so suited to wine-grape growing? The high altitude, river influence, rich soil and mountain breezes create the region’s specific terroir, or the unique environmental conditions that one intrepid winemaker recognized as far back as 1890, when he planted the region’s first small vineyard in Grand Junction. The first winery license was issued to Palisade’s Plum Creek Winery in 1984; today, 21 tasting rooms in the area are open to the public. Wine country-proper stretches roughly twelve miles along the Colorado River, from the mouth of De Beque Canyon to Grand Junction.

A surprising number of first-generation winemakers manage these vineyards.

A cattle herder, investment banker and ski coach are among the diverse mix of individuals who left steady jobs to live out a dream in the Grand Valley. But

Grand Junction Visitor & Convention Bureau

Forty-five wineries from around the state will pour sips at the main festival in Riverbend Park, while guests sway to the lively tunes of a jazz quartet. Select local restaurants are offering special food-andwine-pairing events throughout the long weekend, while a variety of hands-on educational seminars may just launch the next generation of Colorado winemakers over the course of a single weekend. winecolorado.org

Where to Stay

Wine Country Inn, Palisade

Surrounded by 20 acres of vineyard, it would be easy never to leave the gorgeous property of the Wine Country Inn during a long weekend, but you probably should—if only to pop over to the two wineries next door. The Inn’s many amenities include 80 wellappointed guest rooms, a heated pool and hot tub, spa, and tasting room. coloradowinecountryinn.com

the fact that many vintners got their starts as hobbyists is no reflection on the outstanding, award-winning wines that are currently being produced here. Jay Christiansen, a Board Member with the Colorado Association for Viticulture and Enology, sums it up nicely when he says that winemaking in the region has “gone from infancy to a sophisticated adulthood very, very quickly.”

Classic red, white and dessert wines are all found in abundance in the Grand Valley, and many wineries have carved out their own specialized niches: Graystone Winery is known for its ports, while Meadery of the Rockies’ sweet selections all originate from raw orange-blossom honey. St. Kathryn Cellars’ most popular wine is made from locally grown and harvested lavender.

A large part of the fun of touring Palisade’s wine country has to do with the unique sights, sounds and smells—like watching Syrah being extracted straight from the barrel with a “wine thief” during Palisade’s “Barrel Into Spring” events (held in April and May), or lounging on Reeder Mesa Vineyards’ deck 148

Young-Ja Garrett insists she is “not a pancake person,” but visitors to Los Altos Bed & Breakfast, which she runs with her husband Lee, staunchly disagree. Guests cannot get enough of her signature multi-grain pancakes or her homemade jams and jellies. This delightful B&B is perched on 3.5 acres of land high above the city of Grand Junction and offers a stunning panorama of the Bookcliffs, Grand Mesa and Colorado National Monument. losaltosgrandjunction.com

A DiVine Thyme Bed & Breakfast, Palisade

Innkeepers Tom and Cathy Monroe serve a full hot breakfast seven days a week at their Victorian-style B&B and source as many local ingredients as possible, including coffee roasted by Palisade’s Tucan Coffee (tucancoffee. com) and fruit from nearby produce stands. The location is an ideal base from which to start many wine-country adventures, and rooms sell out months in advance for special events.

So Sweet

PERHAPS EVEN MORE THAN WINE, Palisade is known for its peaches. Ideal growing conditions for the fruit exist in this region, and year after year thousands of pounds of perfect, juicy orbs are plucked from the trees of Palisade’s orchards and used by local chefs and home cooks to make everything from cobbler to gin. Visit High Country Orchards and Vineyards (they also ship boxes of fruit, preserves, and other goodies all over the country through highcountryorchards.com), or pull over to a stand on the side of the road and enjoy a peach unadulterated. It’s okay to let those delightful juices run down your chin—it’s all a part of the Palisade experience. Through mid-September.

with a glass of red during “Waterfall Weekend.” Guests at this two-day event have front row seats when the winter’s snowmelt briefly transforms into more than a dozen beautiful waterfalls cascading over Grand Mesa, the largest flattop mountain in the world.

In late summer, tickets to the “Feast in the Fields” harvest celebration are much coveted. As if dining smack in the middle of an orchard isn’t enough of an olfactory delight, attendees are treated to a mouth-watering four-course meal prepared with local produce and paired with local wines.

Regardless of the season, it is worth carving out the time to swirl, sniff and sip at more than a few Grand Valley wineries—whether enjoying a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon at Maison la Belle Vie’s richly decorated piano bar or tasting Fumé Blanc in Garfield Estates’ renovated 1910 vintage barn. “Taste more than two,” Christiansen advises.

“There is a wine for everyone here.”

WHERE DESIGN COMES TO LIFE

Myth. Orchids have a reputation for being difficult to grow, however, there are many varieties that make excellent house plants. Orchid care is not difficult, it is just different.

Another myth is that working with an interior designer is difficult and complicated. In fact, when you hire an ASID interior designer, you get an experienced practitioner who can solve problems, even save you money by helping you avoid costly mistakes, referring reliable contractors, and selecting products and materials that meet your budget and design requirements.

ASID interior designers are different. Let your interior design project come to life. Hire an ASID interior designer, today.

Colorado Chautauqua’s Higher Education Fresh air and big ideas have drawn crowds to Boulder since 1898, and they still come in droves today

By Laura Beausire

ugging the base of Boulder’s iconic Flatirons, the Colorado Chautauqua is an old-style cultural and educational encampment and a revered National Historic Landmark. But perhaps just as importantly, it has been an uplifting touchstone for generations of visitors.

“The most American thing in America,” is what Theodore Roosevelt called the Chautauqua Movement, which took the U.S. by storm in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Educators, musicians, politicians, philosophers and scientists spread out across rural areas, setting up tent camps and founding more permanent headquarters along the way.

In the 1890s, when the Texas Board of Regents had the idea of building a summer school for teachers in cooler climes, they chose Boulder “for its spectacular mountain setting and its health-giving environment.” They opened the TexasColorado Chautauqua in 1898, to the applause of over 4,000 attendees. The initial six-week summer program was described at the time as “the most comprehensive intellectual retreat ever presented west of the Mississippi River.”

A complex of buildings would eventually cover the 40-acre site, including a vast, barn-like auditorium, a popular dining hall with a lovely wraparound porch, an Academic Hall, Community House and 99 of the cutest little wooden cottages you could ever imagine, to accommodate visitors and guests.

With popular hiking trails drawing an outdoorsy crowd, and concerts, theatre, dance and film events joining workshops and classes to fill the calendar, today’s Chautauqua is a busy place that still seems to exist in a gentler era. Maybe it has something to do with the vintage American quality of its Statement of Values: “The Chautauqua experience is based on lifelong learning, love of nature, voluntary simplicity, and music, oration and the arts.” May it never go out of style.
