Featured in 5280: Factor Design Build’s Ultimate Boulder Backyard Makeover

A Boulder Backyard That Defines Outdoor Luxury

We’re honored that 5280 Magazine recently featured one of Factor Design Build’s Boulder projects in their article, “The Ultimate Boulder Backyard Makeover.” The story highlights how our team transformed a standard backyard into an extraordinary outdoor retreat—complete with a custom pool, outdoor kitchen, spa, and seamlessly integrated landscape design.

At Factor Design Build, we believe the best spaces are those that connect architecture, landscape, and lifestyle. This Boulder home perfectly captures that philosophy.

“We wanted to create a space that felt like a natural extension of the home—functional, beautiful, and distinctly Colorado,” says Factor’s design director.

Blending Indoor Comfort with Outdoor Living

The project merges modern design with organic elements—featuring locally sourced stone, warm wood textures, and lush greenery that frame the Rocky Mountain backdrop. Every detail was carefully planned by our in-house architects, designers, and builders to ensure both aesthetics and performance.

• Custom pool & spa with energy-efficient systems
• Outdoor kitchen and dining pavilion
• Integrated lighting and irrigation
• Fire pit lounge for year-round enjoyment
• Sustainable materials designed for Colorado’s climate
