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.

Carmel Oaks

Carmel Oaks Community Refresh

Carmel Oaks is an Independent Living community located in the heart of  Lakewood, CO. This community won Best Independent Living from U.S. News & World Report 2023-2024. The occupied renovation was completed January 2023 and focused on upgrades to the exterior as well as interior. The main areas of interior focus were:  Vestibule, Lobby, Coffee shop, Patio (off Main Dining room), conversion of a previous Private Dining Room into an active Multi-Purpose Studio, and all new Corridor flooring throughout the community.  It was important to our client that we coordinate the new design with the existing transitional aesthetic and were encouraged to add contemporary undertones. The design concept for this refresh was termed “Subtle Sophistication”. All affected amenity areas were redesigned with the met intention to provide a sense of elevated sophistication, while meeting flexibilities in function, and to inspire resident interaction and engagement at all times of the day. 

 

Notable highlight:

The main entrance now provides an elegant and impactful first and last impression to the community. The clear glass windows and doors now usher in more natural light, and provide intentional visibility from the interior to the exterior.  A new 2-story centralized fireplace feature wall, invokes a sense of warmth while providing a stable backdrop for friends and family members to gather. The guests are now greeted with refreshment offerings from a beverage station directly next to the centralized seating area. The new high impact reception desk design yields: clean lines, warm wood tones, contrasting white waterfall quartz accents, and a full-height wood wall feature serves as a commanding and grounding backdrop. The combination of all design elements provide an impactful sense of welcoming to anyone entering the community, and gives the existing residents a joyful sense of pride to call it home.
