Top Interior Design Honors Awarded to Slifer Designs of Vail Colorado Leading Interior Design Firm for Resort Communities

May 18, 2005 -- Slifer Designs of Vail, Colorado was recently awarded two Gold Awards and One Silver Award for excellence in interior design for work on resort properties in Colorado's Vail Valley and California's Lake Tahoe. Taking coveted Gold Awards bestowed by the American Resort Development Association (ARDA) are Slifer Designs' Old Greenwood Lodge in Lake Tahoe, a facility following strict environmental and "green" guidelines, and the sales center at Cordillera Golf Club, a premier resort near Vail, Colorado. Country Club of the Rockies, also in the Vail Valley, received a Silver award for the redesign of its restaurant and clubhouse.

ARDA is a national organization representing the vacation ownership and resort development industries and gives these awards to architects, designers and developers. The competition for ARDA's interior design excellence awards is very tight in all categories, according to Slifer Designs' vice president of interior architecture and hospitality, James D. Dawkins, AIA.

"Firms from all around the country compete for recognition and only the best in class are selected," said Dawkins. "We are honored and proud of the artistic excellence that our diverse team continues to create in both interior design and interior architecture. These awards serve as stepping stones to future achievements as we continue to develop our talents and abilities in world-class mountain resort design."

"We are very pleased to earn this prestigious recognition from our peers," said Beth Slifer, founder and president of Slifer Designs. "Every member of the extraordinary project teams for these properties deserves individual praise for continued dedication to excellence and interior design integrity. This award goes to the architects and builders as well, Evans Chaffee Construction Group, Shepherd Resources, RA Nelson and Zehren and Associates. Congratulations to everyone involved."

Slifer Designs consistently receives honors for refreshing design for resort communities. Red Sky Ranch in Wolcott, Colorado and Mayacama Golf Resorts in California's Sonoma Valley received Silver Awards in 2004, and Hyatt Main Street Station in Breckenridge and the Roaring Fork Club in Basalt earned top honors in 2003.
