Electrical Engineering Projects
Wetterhorn in Ridgway Colorado
Wetterhorn in Ridgway Colorado
The Wetterhorn project exemplifies our expertise in affordable housing design, blending cost-effective modular construction with high-quality, functional living spaces. EVstudio’s collaboration in this project ensures that each residence is built to provide long-term value while offering an attractive, sustainable solution to local housing needs. The success of this development showcases the importance of innovative design and efficient construction in creating affordable housing options for communities.
The Gauge Apartments
The Gauge Apartments
The Gauge Apartments in Durango, Colorado, showcase an innovative housing solution that combines sustainability, affordability, attractive design and modular construction. This project directly addresses Durango’s housing shortage by offering eco-friendly, high-quality living spaces at a price point that remains manageable for residents. By utilizing modular construction methods, the project not only reduced build times but also lowered labor costs, enabling the developer to pass these savings onto both the developer and the residents.
Each modular unit is prefabricated offsite by Guerdon Modular Buildings, ensuring strict quality control and minimal waste throughout the process. Once delivered to Durango, these units were efficiently assembled by the General Contractor, FCI Constructors. This modular construction approach aligns with the project’s sustainability goals, significantly reducing waste and the overall environmental impact of the build. The use of offsite construction techniques also plays a vital role in minimizing embodied carbon, a key factor in the project’s eco-friendly design.
The Gauge Apartments offer a variety of layouts to meet diverse tenant needs, with each unit designed for comfort and energy efficiency. Features include open floor plans, energy-efficient appliances, and superior insulation, which help keep utility bills low. Shared outdoor spaces and landscaped green areas further foster a sense of community, enhancing the overall living experience. Situated near a commercial activity zone, the location provides residents with easy access to neighborhood amenities. This project sets a new benchmark for affordable, sustainable housing in high-demand areas, blending efficiency, quality, and environmental responsibility.
Sawtooth Duplexes in Gunnison Colorado
Sawtooth Duplexes in Gunnison Colorado
This sustainable single-family project, located just west of the Gunnison County fairgrounds, features modular duplexes designed with energy efficiency at the forefront. Fading West Construction handled on-site work, while Fading West Homes developed the modular units, ensuring quick construction times and reduced environmental impact. The project includes six duplexes, six duplexed garages, and a single ADU above one of the garages, offering a mix of affordable, eco-friendly housing options for the community.
Sawtooth was one of the first projects where we incorporated an energy-efficient heat pump mini-split system, maximizing comfort while minimizing energy use. The project also adhered to the highest climate zone standards of the 2021 IECC, integrating ERV units to improve indoor air quality and further reduce energy consumption. This combination of sustainable modular design and innovative systems showcases our commitment to providing environmentally responsible, energy-efficient housing solutions that support both the community and the environment.
Primrose School Colorado Station
Primrose School Colorado Station
EVstudio provided integrated architectural design, structural design, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) engineering services for the building addition and site work. This project enhances the school’s ability to serve its growing community, creating safe, engaging, and functional spaces for early childhood education. By focusing on both the educational environment and outdoor play areas, the design promotes a well-rounded, enriching experience for students.

Poncha Meadows
Poncha Meadows
To elevate the aesthetic appeal, premium wood siding was expertly used as an accent material, infusing the homes with a sophisticated elegance. The thoughtful integration of this feature highlights how modular design can be both functional and visually striking, demonstrating that modular homes can offer a stylish and attractive alternative to traditional housing. Poncha Meadows proves that modular homes, when designed with attention to detail, can achieve a level of beauty and charm that enhances any community.
Ilium Telluride Workforce Housing
Ilium Telluride Workforce Housing
The project addressed the site’s complex topography with innovative foundation designs to navigate steep slopes and challenging geological conditions, including nine-foot foundation walls on one side and exploding bedrock on the other. EVstudio incorporated various solutions, such as over-garage foundations, stepped crawl spaces, and deep crawl spaces, to ensure structural integrity and adaptability. Built during the demanding winter months, Ilium Telluride showcases a commitment to delivering high-quality housing in rugged environments.

Are you in need of specialized services such as transformer harmonics, arc-fault/flash design, photometric analysis, residential one-line diagrams, fire alarm system integration and coordination, lightning protection systems, or standby generator design? Trust your project to the team at EVstudio for a higher level of design excellence.
A partnership with EVstudio brings your project to a new level.
- Structural Coordination. With our integrated and cooperative design teams, we use Revit and Navisworks to coordinate with the buildings structural systems to create a truly buildable project.
- Coordination with other systems. By working with other disciplines early in the design process, we can help you avoid pitfalls such as elevator and generator specifications before materials are ordered, and construction starts.
- Vendors. We have great relationships with many local vendors ( including, but not limited to CT Lighting, Illuminations Systems, The Lighting Agency, AMP, and Siemens) that help our designs stay on track and budget.
- Lighting fixtures selection. Our team of electrical designers can work hand-in-hand with you to select your fixtures or work with the ones you selected, thus ensuring that your plans align with them.
- Utility coordination. Our team works not only with electrical utility companies but with all utilities including gas, water, and communications.
- Existing buildings. Our team of electrical designers also provide existing building analysis and reports for any building type.
- Low voltage system design. We can interface with your design-build contractor to ensure your project meets all required codes.
