Firm Description

We believe enduring architecture enhances community, elevates life experiences, and restores our connection to the natural world. Embracing a modernist approach to the influences of region and culture, we have been guided by this vision for over 40 years – connecting people, nature, and community with inspired architecture.

Our experience includes residences from custom high-end to affordable housing, resort community design, mountain lodge and base area development, recreational facilities, mixed-use projects, health & lifestyle clubs, and boutique hotels.

The success of Cottle Carr Yaw’s philosophy and regionally-responsive design has been recognized by over 100 design awards, including the AIA’s Firm of the Year for the US Western Mountain Region.
