Ridgeview Residence is taking shape, and we’re making significant progress on site!

Brandon walks us through the latest updates, from completed backfilling and a driveway at final grade to fresh concrete pours and the completed CMU chimney, which offers a first look at the scale of the home.

With the lower-level concrete slab underway, the team is preparing for the next major phase: framing and bringing the structure to life.

Stay tuned as we continue to share the progress at Ridgeview Residence!

A closer look inside Skywood Retreat, where natural textures, handcrafted elements, and thoughtful finishes create a warm and inviting mountain home.

Reclaimed wood is carried throughout the interior, adding warmth, texture, and timeless character. A dramatic fireplace anchors the living space with a strong architectural presence, while custom cabinetry and rustic-inspired details continue into the kitchen.

Every element works together to give Skywood Retreat a distinct sense of place while complementing its Big Sky surroundings.

With framing nearly complete, the Beavercreek Residence is moving into its next phase.

Windows have arrived on site as the team begins closing in the home. Attic trusses maximize usable living space, while panelized walls allow much of the framing to arrive pre-built for a faster, more efficient installation.

This approach allowed the entire first level to be framed in approximately one week, helping streamline the schedule and make the most of Big Sky’s shorter building season.

This summer, the Blue Ribbon Builders team joined a local Big Sky summer camp for a day of building, learning, and connecting with our community.

Together, we built birdhouses while walking the kids through the different stages of building a home, from the first steps to the finished product. Russell also taught the campers about mountain bluebirds and how they can photograph the birds they see and submit their observations to Cornell University to help support ongoing bird research.

It was a rewarding opportunity to share a little of what we do, inspire curiosity, and spend time with the younger generation right here in Big Sky!
