Photo Finish: Timber Frame Hybrid in Durango

By jogdenOctober 19th, 2012Uncategorized2 Comments

I wanted to share some of the finish work for the timber frame hybrid home that was featured in this year’s Durango Parade of Homes. Black Canyon Builders and the homeowners worked with local artisans for just about every element. Please give me a call if you’d like more information.

Thanks!

The kitchen is a highlight: a blend of contemporary design with the powerful architectural elements of visible timber frame

The homeowners have a wonderful sense of artistry that they’ve imbued into the home with the finishing details, like the blue  glass pendant globes. The concrete countertops were sourced and made locally by CounterKulture. The custom cabinetry is by Finewood Interiors.

Just off the kitchen is the keg bar ~ a very popular detail!

The staircase is a dominant design feature and is gorgeous from every view. Big Sky Welding did the steelwork.

The engineered bamboo flooring by Teragren is a wide-plank, deep color. It is a glueless system, perfect for the extra depth of insulating concrete subfloor and infloor heating.

Black Canyon Builders is proud to announce that the timber frame remodel/hybrid home on Alamo Drive, in Durango, has been selected for the 2012 Parade of Homes. This is the second consecutive year we’ve had a home accepted into the event. This year’s Parade will be held October 5-7th.

Huge thanks to the homeowners, who are graciously opening their doors for the event. We’ll update the blog with more information as we get closer to the Parade. Advanced tickets ($10) are on sale until October 4th. After October 4th, prices increase to $15.
