At Forge & Bow, we guide you through every step of the design and build journey. Founded by husband and wife duo Jordan and Annie Obermann, our team specializes in high performance residential construction that honors the specific spirit of the land. We believe a home should feel deeply rooted in its environment.
Comprehensive Remodeling & Construction Services
Arvada is a community of beautiful contrasts. Our team is uniquely equipped to manage the exacting standards of a historic restoration near Old Town or the complex civil engineering of a hillside estate in Leyden Rock.
When working in West Arvada, we treat the sloping terrain as a collaborator. Our architect-led approach allows us to design into the natural elevation of the foothills, creating organic walk-out levels and tiered living spaces that feel like a natural extension of the hillside. We create homes that respect Arvada’s rich history while introducing the high performance building science required for modern life. Every structural detail is shaped with the intention to reflect your lifestyle and the rugged beauty of the western edge.

Architect-Led Design Build
We provide a unified process where architectural creation and construction management exist under one roof. For our Arvada clients, this means a single point of responsibility from the first sketch to the final walkthrough. This integrated model ensures that the creative vision is never lost during the complexities of the build phase.
Custom Home Building
We build generational estates that are meant to be lived in and passed down. Our custom homes in the Arvada foothills are designed to withstand the elements while providing a quiet, refined interior experience. We manage every variable of the construction process to ensure your home is masterfully built and enduring in character.
Historic Home Renovation
Kitchen Architecture & Design
The kitchen is the functional heart of the home and deserves a layout that promotes both movement and connection. We move beyond simple surface updates to reimagine the entire volume of the space. Whether we are designing for a modern farmhouse in West Woods or a historic bungalow, we ensure the kitchen is a masterpiece of purposeful design.
Private Spa & Bathroom Suites
Our approach to bathroom design focuses on creating a sense of quietude and restoration. We select materials and lighting that elevate the space from a utility to a sanctuary. By managing every technical detail from custom plumbing to high end finishes, we deliver a private retreat tailored to your daily rhythms.
