Shape designed my home in Leadville. I worked closely with Morgan and Sarah throughout the design and construction phases and couldn't be happier with the end result! This was my first time building a home so I have no point of comparison but I ended up with a home that met all of my goals - both functionally and aesthetically. The Shape team took the time to learn my style and made the process of making thousands of expensive decisions as painless as possible.
If you are looking for a high quality, modern custom home that is energy efficient and beautiful I would highly recommend hiring Shape.

Shape Architecture did a great job coordinating the master plan for our renovation project. We converted an historical home into a commercial restaurant and they followed through every step of the way. They contacted us often during all stages of the process. The only issue was what I thought was the over- planning by the structural engineer concerning the shoring up of the floor. I think it was too extensive and added a lot to the time and cost of the project. (I know Shape is not the structural engineer but maybe it should have been reviewed and modified down a bit. Other than that the company representatives were great... very responsive and professional.

Now that I am living in a beautiful new passive home, I can't imagine how I would have completed this project without the help of Morgan and Bunny. Along with my builder, I called them my "Creation Crew" because they were with me every step of the way, starting long before we broke ground. If I could give a 5 1/2 star-review to help this one stand out, I would. I am deeply grateful for their artistic and detailed assistance.

Highly recommend working with Shape Architecture! Incredibly nice and thoughtful team. They were always willing to roll up their sleeves to solve problems for very complex project converting a hotel to apartments. We hope to work with them again in the future!

I am a general contractor with 4 decades of experience from ground up custom homes to deck repairs. In all of those years I had never had such a positive experience when in collaboration with an architectural firm.
From the contractors point of view, Shape delivered on every aspect of the project from real time, right now design ideas to managing and procuring outside professionals when needed.
Shape was prepared, organized, on time with deliverables and nearly always available for detail clarification or an in depth discussion on any topic regarding the project.
In addition to being extremely knowledgeable , I found Sarah and Morgan humble and open to suggestions from others who were concerned with the execution of the project.
The time that I spent with Morgan and Sarah was a real pleasure.
Working with Shape is almost enough to make me want to keep working after 46 years of building. Almost!

Shape Architecture has been an absolute joy to work with. They are the kind of team you hope to find: wildly passionate about great design, proactive, and genuinely collaborative. Their communication was clear and consistent, they were open to ideas while also elevating the work with their own, and they make the whole process feel exciting instead of stressful.
What stood out most was how thoughtful and responsive they are— every interaction was intentional and genuine. If you’re looking for an architecture team that’s creative, grounded, and fully invested in the success of your project, I can’t recommend Shape highly enough.

We highly recommend Shape Architecture. Building our dream home was a complex and challenging journey, especially after previous disappointing experiences; from the moment we began working with Shape, everything changed.
Morgan led his team with exceptional vision and care. He truly took the time to get to know us: our lifestyle, values, and long-term goals and thoughtfully translated those into a custom design that exceeded our expectations. Our goal of creating a passive house was fully understood and expertly executed.
Throughout the process, Morgan and his team were attentive, knowledgeable, and deeply invested in our success. We always felt that Shape had our best interests at heart. Morgan's insight, guidance, and leadership provided clarity and confidence at every step, far beyond what we could have achieved on our own.
We are incredibly grateful for the experience and cannot recommend Shape Architecture highly enough.
