Mountain Ridge Grand Reveal
An Invitation to Experience the Home in Person
We’re pleased to share that Mountain Ridge, our newest custom residence nestled into the foothills above Boulder, is complete.
To celebrate the completion of the home, Studio B Architecture + Interiors will be hosting a private Grand Reveal, an invitation-only gathering designed to offer an intimate experience of the project.
This will not be a typical open house. Instead, we are curating a limited guest list of friends, collaborators, and members of our extended community who share an appreciation for thoughtful design and meaningful conversation.
If you are interested in attending future Studio B events, including the Mountain Ridge Grand Reveal, we invite you to join our special invitation list.
Please provide your email through the link below to be considered for this and future private events.
We look forward to welcoming our community into the spaces we create. #onlyforyouonlyinthisplace
A Peek Into the Process: Construction at Mountain Ridge
We’re excited to share that we are nearing completion of Mountain Ridge, a new custom residence nestled into the foothills above Boulder, Colorado. Thoughtfully embedded in the landscape, the home is both a response to the site’s history and a vision for renewal, an architecture shaped by regrowth, connection, and light.
The design takes cues from the scar left by a previously demolished structure, using that imprint as a starting point to stitch the hillside back together. Interlaced volumes create a series of courtyards and protected outdoor rooms, while a vertically zigzagging roofline follows the terrain, bringing movement and hierarchy to the form. Throughout the day, light filters deep into the interiors, creating a dynamic experience that shifts with the seasons.
As the finishing touches come together, we’re looking forward to professional photography in the coming weeks to fully capture the home’s relationship to the hillside, the quality of light, and the carefully crafted details that define the project. We can’t wait to share the final imagery soon.
Reflections, People, and Places That Shaped Our Year
As the year comes to a close, we’re pleased to share our Studio B Holiday Newsletter, a reflection on the people, places, and moments that shaped our work over the past year.
This issue highlights the year’s work and insights, including a rare opportunity to build a legacy home in Lazy-O, alongside the people behind the projects. 2025 marked a year of growth, new chapters, and meaningful achievements, and we’re grateful to the clients, collaborators, and community who continue to shape our work.
We invite you to read the Holiday Newsletter online and reflect with us on a year defined by connection, creativity, and thoughtful design. Looking ahead, 2026 brings new projects, new photography, and continued collaboration, we look forward to sharing what’s next.
Warm wishes from all of us at Studio B.

We’re delighted to share that Aura Condo, our thoughtfully crafted Aspen condominium, is featured in the latest issue of Aspen Magazine. Appearing just after the excerpt from Private Aspen, the piece highlights the project’s refined material palette, curated interior moments, and the calm, modern sensibility that defines Studio B’s work.
This feature is a meaningful acknowledgement of the team and collaborators who helped bring Aura to life. We’re proud to see it recognized in one of Aspen’s most notable publications and grateful for the continued support of the design community.
Design Like a Girl at CU Denver
Earlier this month, Studio B’s own Irina participated in the Design Like a Girl event at the University of Colorado Denver, an initiative created to empower young women and nonbinary students interested in architecture, engineering, and the built environment. The event brought together practicing designers, students, and mentors for an afternoon focused on creativity, confidence-building, and the joy of making.
Hosted by CU’s College of Architecture and Planning, Design Like a Girl is more than a workshop, it’s an introduction to the possibility of seeing yourself in design. Through hands-on activities, thoughtful conversations, and one-on-one mentorship, participants explored what it means to imagine spaces, solve problems with intention, and discover their own design voice.
Irina represented Studio B as a mentor and guide, spending the day sketching, discussing studio culture, and sharing her experience transitioning from design school to professional practice. We’re proud of Irina for contributing to such a meaningful initiative and for sharing Studio B’s commitment to mentorship, education, and design excellence with the next generation of creators.

Sarah Harkins Featured in Modern in Denver
We are proud to share that Partner Sarah Harkins is featured in the Fall 2025 issue of Modern in Denver. The article spotlights Sarah alongside a talented group of Colorado architects, each offering their perspective on what it means to design modern architecture today.
In her interview, Sarah reflects on how modernism continues to evolve, becoming more human, contextual, and attuned to livability. She highlights how Colorado’s distinctive terrain and climate both challenge and inspire design, while also underscoring the value of a collaborative architectural community that shapes the state’s built environment.
“We define modern architecture as an ongoing pursuit of clarity, restraint, and purpose … distilling design to its essence: clean lines, honest materials, and a thoughtful relationship between building and site.”
We are honored to see Sarah’s voice included in this thoughtful feature, and we extend our thanks to Modern in Denver for bringing together such a talented base of architects to celebrate modern design in Colorado.
