Creating mountain elegance that embraces nature’s elements was the extraordinary assignment of this design project. Karlene Hunter Baum and team were asked to capture and carry nature’s colors and textures throughout each room in a non-intimidating, more contemporary manner than what is usually found within a mountain home. The plan steered clear of traditional mountain decor by creating soft, clean lined features and fixtures that interpreted the Western mountains and made it seem as though the home had always been embedded above the shores of the mountain lake and nestled comfortably within the mountain.
