Cuppett Kilpatrick is a Denver‑based architecture and interior design studio founded by Tim Cuppett and Dave Kilpatrick, drawing on over twenty years of residential experience. Guided by a singular idea of “edit,” each project is distilled to its essential qualities—prioritizing clients’ needs, the distinctive character of each site, and the home’s relationship to light, scale, and volume. Tim’s expertise in crafting daylight‑balanced interiors merges with Dave’s talent for graphic composition and material assembly, resulting in spaces that resonate with both modern and traditional sensibilities.
From the first sketch through to the installation of finishing details, Cuppett Kilpatrick maintains hands‑on involvement at every stage, ensuring a cohesive vision and meticulous execution. The firm’s work, informed by Alexander Pope’s injunction to “consult the genius of the place,” responds directly to climate, context, and topography. This rigorous, place‑sensitive approach has earned the studio local and national acclaim, with designs celebrated for their refined simplicity, thoughtful engagement with site, and enduring elegance.
