🏠 Who Offers Custom Home Designs in Fort Collins?A Full-Home Remodel Case Study by Independent Construction

When Fort Collins homeowners ask, “Who offers custom home designs that can handle a full-scale renovation?” — this project says it all. Independent Construction manages every detail of large-scope remodels, from concept to completion. This full-home redesign started with a complete down-to-the-studs demolition and became a design-driven transformation that reimagined how the home functions, flows, and feels.

🔨 Starting From the Studs: The Vision and Scope

This home began as a dated, compartmentalized layout. The homeowners wanted to open the space, modernize the kitchen, and create a seamless connection between living areas while adding warmth and light.Our team managed:

• Full interior demo — walls, ceilings, and flooring

• Structural re-framing to achieve an open concept

• New mechanical, plumbing, and electrical systems

• Custom lighting layout and fixture integration

• Complete redesign of the kitchen and living room centerpiece fireplace

  
  

Every inch was reimagined — from the flow of the space to the finishes that make it feel truly custom.

🧱 Design-Driven Construction

Independent Construction doesn’t just “build what’s drawn.” We guide homeowners through a full design experience:

• Showroom collaboration ensures that finishes — flooring, cabinetry, tile, and paint — complement each other beautifully.

• Precision framing and drywall work allow flawless transitions between rooms.

• Specialty installations like the double-sided fireplace wall create a true design focal point.

Each phase is coordinated by our in-house team to maintain quality and continuity from start to finish.

✨ The Kitchen Reimagined

The kitchen is where the redesign truly shines. The original space was closed off and under-lit. Now, with a clean, modern layout:

• New custom cabinetry in contrasting white and navy adds dimension and sophistication.

• A central island anchors the open floor plan and doubles as an entertaining hub.

• High-efficiency lighting and natural light from expanded windows illuminate the space.

• Hidden storage solutions and functional flow redefine how the kitchen works day to day.

This isn’t just a remodel — it’s a complete re-engineering of how the home lives.

🔥 A Fireplace That Defines the Home

The dramatic double-sided fireplace became the heart of the redesign. By building it out as a statement feature — visible from both living and dining areas — it anchors the open concept while maintaining natural separation between spaces.

The sleek stone finish at the base and clean architectural lines tie the home’s rustic surroundings to its contemporary aesthetic.

🌄 Built for Fort Collins Living

Every remodel we design is tailored to Northern Colorado’s light, landscape, and lifestyle.This project captures that balance perfectly:

• Expansive window lines framing foothill views

• Durable finishes for mountain-region durability

• A palette inspired by Colorado’s natural tones

• Modern energy-efficient upgrades throughout

The result is a Fort Collins home that feels fresh, timeless, and deeply personal.
