Aspen Design House

What Aspen Design House does

Aspen Design House is a private boutique interior design firm headquartered in Basalt, Colorado, in the Roaring Fork Valley. Founded in 2020 by Denise Taylor, the firm operates a three-person creative team — comprising Founder/Design Director Denise Taylor, Lead Designer Gigi Podolak Knox, and Designer Megan McGehee — and provides full-service interior design, new construction, and remodel services. The client base is concentrated in high-net-worth residential, with selective boutique commercial projects supplementing the residential book.

The firm generates revenue through project-based design fees under quote-based pricing that is not publicly disclosed. New business is sourced primarily through a direct inquiry channel via the firm’s website, supported by a stated 48-hour consultation response commitment. Geographic reach spans Colorado mountain communities (Aspen, Snowmass, Vail, Carbondale, Basalt) and includes international projects, notably a penthouse project in Milan.

There is no underlying technology platform, software product, or proprietary tool; the practice runs as a traditional bespoke design studio. The firm carries no external funding and no private equity or venture capital backing. Market positioning is reinforced by multiple ASID Crystal Awards, Luxe Red Awards, and repeated inclusions on Mountain Living’s Top Designers lists from 2022 through 2026.
