Inspiration for our Mountain Modern Design

I find websites like Pinterest and Houzz provide wonderful inspiration ideas for our Northwest Montana home. The two-story ceiling in the living and dining will make for a dramatic Swan Range mountain view. The fireplace and TV wall, as well as the window seat will make the living spaces cozy.

Our design calls for a two-story living and dining, including a dramatic window wall with mountain views. The kitchen will have a lower ceiling height, plus we will ground the living spaces with the Fireplace and TV wall.

We took this Swan Range view photograph from our build site. The actual view will change, but the prospects are exciting!

Love the view to the garden, but we would redesign the window so that it contained a casement window for airflow.

Love the window seat, but we still need a few tweaks on the Fireplace and TV wall. See below to see what I am considering.

I think this Fireplace and TV arrangement, as well as our window seat will help create a cozy living space.

The lower ceilings in the kitchen will help visually balance the opposing Fireplace and TV wall.

Our kitchen will have plenty of storage, including a walk-in pantry, lots of counter space, and two sinks.

Jim and I are using SketchUp to virtually build our future home, including details like, square footage, build materials, finishes, and budget. We are not ready yet, but one day soon an architect and many tradesmen will turn our dreams into a reality. Our SketchUp Two Story floor plan includes a first floor Master suite, including 2,000’+ Square Foot, 2 guest bedrooms and bathroom, first floor powder, and a 2.5 car garage.

The thirteen windows throughout our SketchUp design will ensure plenty of light and great mountain views!
