GRAND LAKE RETREAT

This project was one we were genuinely excited to take on from the very beginning. Our clients live full-time in Littleton, and this home is their mountain escape and a place where they gather with their (now grown) four children to unplug, slow down, and soak in the beauty of Grand Lake, Colorado. Tucked into a small subdivision just off the lake, the home had great bones and a stunning setting, but it was ready for a thoughtful refresh.

When the clients originally purchased the house years ago, it came fully furnished and fully themed. Nearly every light switch, tissue box, comforter and rug was covered, and bear and moose motifs made frequent appearances throughout the home. Combined with dark woodwork, heavy furniture, and dated finishes, each room felt dark, heavy, and disconnected from the incredible landscape just outside the windows.

Our goal was to create a mountain modern retreat that honored the existing architecture and rustic charm while bringing the home into a more contemporary, livable place. We brightened and softened the interiors with paint, replaced most light fixtures, updated all window coverings with motorized shades, and refreshed fixtures, finishes, and furniture throughout. Just as importantly, we layered in personal touches in every room to reflect the family and how they truly live in the space.

Today, the home feels cozy, updated, and intentionally rustic without being themed, modern without losing its warmth. It’s a place the family loves returning to on weekends and holidays, and one they’re proud to share with friends and extended family. A true mountain getaway designed for gathering, relaxing, and making memories.

"The results and the experience were fantastic. The space is beautiful, functional, and also very personal for our family. We’ve been in our house for 24 years and the areas we’ve worked in look brand new. "
"They had great creative ideas and were wonderfully collaborative in working within my communicated scope. I had a project that involved lots of moving pieces and working within the confines of some previously existing items and a tough spaces and they excelled."
"Corinne is the best interior designer I have ever worked with!!"
"Corinne has an excellent eye for color, space and design. She has a great attitude, is always willing to work within any budget, and her concepts and estimates are well done and easy to understand. "
"We initially had C2 re-design the first floor of our home, but were so impressed by the work, that we also had them re-design and furnish our basement level. We are now having C2 help us re-do our master bedroom and bathroom. We also really appreciated that many of the design follow ups were done via email and that the designs were available electronically. We couldn't be happier with our home thanks to c2Design."
"Corinne and her team have been amazing every step of the way. Corinne's unique background makes her ideal for such a project; she works with the builder and architect to ensure every detail from electrical placement to all the finishes are perfect."
"The communication was excellent. Questions and concerns along the way were quickly answered. I loved how C2 Design continued to offer different options until we found the right color, piece or fabric."
"I've had Corinne and her team work on a few smaller room refreshes over the years in a few different houses, and then two years ago c2Design did a total remodel of the primary bath and refreshes of two other bathrooms. They took basic builder-grade cabinetry, fixtures and flooring and created a beautiful spa-like bath with more storage than I know what to do with. It makes me happy every day!"
"c2Design completely transformed our bungalow into a home that feels both stylish and personal. From the very beginning, the team impressed us with their knowledge, creativity, and attention to detail. Corinne, the owner, was incredible at figuring out our style—even when we weren’t sure how to describe it ourselves—and showcasing it throughout the entire house.

Every space now feels intentional and truly reflects who we are. What once felt like a house now feels like our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. We’re so grateful for Corinne and the c2Design team and highly recommend them to anyone looking to create a home that feels beautiful, comfortable, and uniquely their own."
