Brooke Stevens Interior Designer

Born and raised in Colorado, Brooke wanted to experience life on the east coast and started her higher education at University of New Hampshire, focused on Human Development and Family Studies. She went on to transfer to CSU and ultimately graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Family and Consumer Sciences. After her university experience, Brooke discovered her true passion lies in Interior Design, and earned her master’s certificate from Heritage School of Interior Design in Denver. As a newcomer to the interior design scene, Brooke has loved learning something new every day, and gaining practical knowledge and experience.

As a world class rock climber, Brooke spends her free time focused on extreme mountaineering in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Just kidding... she’s outdoorsy in that she likes long walks on the beach with a margarita in hand. As a self-proclaimed “city girl” Brooke loves exploring the many eclectic neighborhoods and rooftop patios that Denver has to offer, but has been known to be persuaded to go white-water rafting and zip-lining through the woods as long as she can spend more time with friends and family.

Tricia Guy Business Development Specialist & Senior Designer

 

As the youngest of four girls, Tricia quickly became her father’s resident assistant on all home projects.  Inspired by the endless creative capabilities in each project, Tricia knew design and construction was where she wanted to dedicate her career.  After graduating with her bachelor’s degree in Interior Design from The Illinois Institute of Art, Tricia has gained experience from a wide range within the design field:  from high-end residential to commercial interiors.  Working within the Senior Living design market established an instant connection with Tricia and has since been her focus for the past 10 years. Tricia’s positive outlook, passion for architectural design, and dedication to collaboration has created lasting relationships with industry partners looking to design and experience a unique blend of hospitality driven design with an emphasis of resident comfort.

 

Since relocating to Denver in 2018 from Wisconsin, Tricia enjoys experiencing everything Colorado has to offer.  When she’s not in the mountains enjoying a hike with her significant other Eric and their fur-son Renzo, you can find her teaching her other passion, Pilates, to friends and family alike.

Pantone’s Color of the Year- Peach Fuzz

Happy February! Nothing gives us warm and fuzzy feelings quite like the month of love. Speaking of “fuzz,” let’s talk about this year’s Pantone color of the year: Peach Fuzz. This soft, but vibrant hue evokes feelings of comfort and luxury.

One thing we’ve learned from our all our combined years of designing in the senior living space is that as we age, a lot of our senses change over time. Hunter Lab explains that “as our eye ages, the color vision gets worse due to the lenses in our eyes becoming yellow-ish. This causes distortion in the colors and can prevent the eye differentiating yellow from green and blue from purple. This is why you see seniors gravitating to softer color pallets full of warm, rich colors…” and there’s no better example than Pantone’s color of the year “Peach Fuzz.”

Need a little more inspiration on ways to embrace this cheeky color? See images below for how we’re seeing it used throughout different spaces that are both chic and soothing.
