ABOUT US
Ewers Architecture is a progressive firm formed in 1998 in downtown Golden, Colorado. We design a wide range of commercial and residential architecture. In the past two decades we have designed several hundred projects of all sizes – from small remodel projects to multi-million dollar campuses. Our client list includes families, cities and other governmental entities, schools, non-profit organizations, and many types of businesses.
Ewers Architecture is a small firm by design – we intentionally limit the number of clients and projects we accept at any time. This allows Peter Ewers to be intimately involved in the design for every project, and guarantees that our client will get the personal attention needed. We also cherish the intimate relationships that develop with each client, consultant and contractor. Our high rate of return clients assures us that these values are important.
We do not have a style of architecture that permeates our design, but instead we allow the architectural style develop for each project from the needs and desires of our client, the site, and expression of the structure. The form and appearance of the finished product is unique and appropriate to each project.

Ann E. Ormsby, RA
Ann Ormsby began working with Ewers Architecture in 2001, and has been a great asset to our firm. For more than four years she was a full-time employee and worked on nearly every project we produced, and she became a licensed architecture during that time. In early 2006 she transitioned to being a stay-at-home mom for several years before coming back to work part-time for Ewers Architecture. All of our clients benefit from her knowledge of architecture as well as the speed and accuracy of her work. In her free time Ann enjoys spending time with her family, biking and traveling.
