Our specialty is residential design, but our design philosophy also works with commercial development and everything in between. We all know what we like and don't like. You may have even collected photos out of magazines or online and visited home shows. Why hire someone to help you design your home? You need someone who understands the big picture and has the education and experience to help you determine what you want to build and how to afford to build it. As design professional, we're here to help you find options you may have never considered and to help you get the most out of your investment in your residence. We design for your needs and desires. Designing a home isn't just about walls and a roof. Designing a home is about creating spaces, both interior and exterior, that are not only functional, but pleasing to live and work in. Through good design and creative, spatial problem solving, we can help you reduce the cost of construction, improve the energy efficiency, and increase the potential resale value of your home. Part of good design addresses the need to be environmentally aware. MWG strives to provide designs that address the local conditions - sun angles, wind, topography, water, and vegetation. By understanding and addressing how the local conditions will affect the building, we attempt to maximize light and natural ventilation while reducing the demand for artificial lighting and mechanical systems. Much of this is achieved by designing the proper roof overhangs and window placement (both for light and ventilation). These are simple design details that do not add to the budget and are recently known as 'green building.' As our client, if you wish to explore the possibility of incorporating energy saving technologies such as geothermal heating/cooling, solar hot water, wind energy, or photo voltaic cells, to name a few, we have the resources to incorporate these into your building. As energy costs rise and we attempt to reduce our impact on the environment, Mountain West Group strives to incorporate the most cost effective solutions into your building. For our clients who do not live in the area, we are available to be your "eyes and ears" through the entire construction process and keep you up to date with timely photos of the progress or even an on site webcam you can view any time you want. Building a home, no matter what the size, is a long process. Give yourself the advantage of having a complete set of building plans and a knowledgeable design team to help you throughout the process from your first idea to the day you move into the home. Design is a combination of ideas, requirements, and financial guidelines. Our job, as your design professionals, is to use our experience and education to coordinate all the different ideas and goals into one cohesive and efficient building. We have an understanding of providing quality, creative design services in a timely manner at a fair price. When you are ready to build your new home, let Mountain West Group help you design the home of your dreams. We have further highlighted our design philosophy, the design process, and how we work with our clients in two residential projects located in Knode Ranch and at the Powder Horn. The same process is applicable for a commercial, remodel or addition project. Design and construction is a team effort and involves close collaboration between everyone involved in the project. As our client, you are the most important part of that team. At Mountain West Group, we collaborate every day using online conferencing software which also allows us to easily work with our clients and consultants wherever they are located. Consultant engineers are a part of nearly every design project and we maintain relationships with civil, structural, mechanical, and electrical engineers who can be called upon to participate in any project. Our architecture firm is NCARB certified and currently holds licenses in Colorado, Montana, Utah, and Wyoming, and can easily be licensed in any state. Due to our understanding of construction, we enjoy a good relationship with competent, local contractors and are able to help you select the right contractor for your project. We also work directly with a number of contractors from the start of the project. It all depends on your needs. Mountain West Group looks forward to the opportunity to work with you. Using the combination of our experience and relationships, we can help you achieve your goals.
