The green architectural design process begins with careful consideration of earth, culture, and community. Over the course of 30 years working with clients locally and across the globe, we have refined an approach to collaborative modern design built on the values of inspiration, sustainability, community, and ecological responsibility.
During the Resource Inventory and Feasibility Study steps, we identify the Client's desires as well as the regulations, budget, and geographical and cultural context that will inform the design. Based on the information we gather, we create a set of guidelines and considerations to address during the design process.

This North Boulder home was originally a cottage built in 1956. Over the decades, four disparate additions had been made, resulting in a space that felt confusing and disjointed. The homeowners were in search of a solution that would unify the space and introduce functionality. Additionally, the homeowners were committed to preserving their home by pursuing a remodeling process, rather than "scraping" the structure and building something new.
The Gettliffe Architecture Studio was designed to be an open, adaptable workspace with ease of flow between spaces and to receive an abundance of natural light. A see through, rectilinear shelving system made of glass panels, steel posts and 25 foot long engineered wood beams as shelves, serves as a single partition to define various alcoves such as the meeting area, kitchenette, display corner and main work space.

We recently moved into our new home in Boulder, Colorado. Gettliffe Architecture designed and guided us through the entire project, including helping us choose the General Contractor, conceptual design and the ultimate design of our new home, as well as management of the project through to the last paintbrush stroke on the wall. Dominique and his team were very attentive to our goals and to our aspirations. They were great to work with throughout the entire process. We especially appreciated their help during the construction process, working in collaboration with the contractors to turn our vision

Nathan and the staff at Gettliffe did a wonderful job designing a beautiful addition and remodel on our home. The newly added space is eye-catching and efficient. It flows perfectly with the existing house and works wonderfully with our outdoor space. We would highly recommend the design team at Gettliffe for any remodeling or building projects!
Thank you all for your care and attention to detail throughout our family's remodel journey!
