A home remodel in Avon, Colorado provided an opportunity for the owners to make meaningful, sustainable change to the look of their interior space. With a bright, airy floor plan, the opportunity for subtle luxury with a twist of drama was made possible with the use of old wood, custom millwork and mixed metals.

The custom finished Bavarian oak floors are featured throughout the home, adding a weathered touch that gives the abode a fresh aesthetic and personality. “The planks are unique,” says Swiss-born Balz Arrigoni, owner and founder of Arrigoni Woods. “The size, color and texture of the old growth wood planks and an all-natural oil finish set the tone for the interior design.”

The staircase is the centerpiece of the home. The carefully considered combination of wood, ethically sourced from managed forests in the Austrian mountains and mixed metals add textural interest and color contrast resulting in eye catching appeal. Principal Designer at Jacobs + Interiors, Yvonne Jacobs explains, “Over the stairs, strategically placed floating hexagonal light fixtures by Henge featuring bronze finishes deliver a unique, artistic statement.

In the kitchen, the flooring is paired with custom finished oak cabinetry by Heartwood Custom Woodworks. The darker shade adds depth and warmth. Arrigoni Woods gray barn wood siding on the wall offers additional visual interest. Light countertops and upholstered seating ensure that the relationship between materials enhances the inviting, bespoke space.

The fireplace is another highlight in the home. The cold rolled steel design with built-in lighting adds impact and drama to the living area. Operating with values comprised of a circle of respect for people, the materials and the planet, Arrigoni Woods builds a genuine relationship with the wood from the forest to the floor. They believe that wood should be sourced with the utmost respect and experience. For each tree felled, four others are planted.

Sustainability is at the heart of Arrigoni Woods. Production waste is converted into new energy in their own biomass heater. The company remains true to its devotion to environmentally responsible forestry and manufacturing principles. “The important relationships we build contribute to the success of our projects and business,” says Arrigoni. Customer service is a core value and the Arrigoni Woods promise to deliver the highest quality materials is at the heart of each project.
