thoughtful renovations start with intentional design

Your home should feel personal, considered, and built with care — not the result of rushed decisions or shortcuts.

Great homes don’t happen by accident. Every renovation begins with thoughtful planning, honest collaboration, and a clear vision for how a space should function and feel.

We partner with homeowners throughout Denver, Boulder, and the surrounding areas to guide renovations from the earliest ideas through construction. By focusing on clarity, craftsmanship, and intentional design decisions, each project becomes a space that feels personal, functional, and built to last.

Our Values are clear and simple

Intentional Design

Every decision is carefully considered based on your home to make it feel cohesive and purposeful.

Clear Collaboration

Renovations work best when the client feels informed and involved from start to finish of their project, and they know who they are working with at all stages of the project.

Quality Craftmanship

INTNT design partners with skilled and insured builders, and trades to ensure every detail is executed with care.

Jen Smith

Founder + Principal Designer

Jen founded INTNT design with a simple belief: thoughtful design has the power to transform not just a space, but the way people experience their home.

A Colorado native, Jen earned her Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the University of Colorado in 2016. Her work is rooted in clarity, collaboration, and purposeful design that help homeowners navigate renovations with confidence and a clear vision for their space.

Jen’s experience spans architectural design, project management, and construction coordination across a range of environments including residential homes, educational facilities, healthcare spaces, and public buildings. This diverse background allows her to approach renovations with both creative vision and practical problem solving.

Today, Jen works closely with homeowners throughout Denver, Boulder, and surrounding communities to guide renovations from the earliest design concepts through construction. Her goal is always the same: to create spaces that feel intentional, functional, and deeply personal to the people who live in them.

common renovation questions

  • An architectural designer works on the structure, layout, and function of a home. Understands how spaces are planned, built, and connected. This includes floor plans, wall changes, ceiling heights, window placement, and how a renovation fits within building codes and permit requirements.

    An interior designer focuses primarily on the look and feel of a space—furniture, finishes, colors, décor, and styling.

    At INTNT Design, my work blends both.

    I design spaces from the inside out. Starting with thoughtful layouts and construction-ready plans, then layering in materials, lighting, and finishes that make the home feel intentional and personal. This means clients get both strong architectural planning and beautiful interiors, all aligned under one clear vision.

    Instead of hiring multiple consultants, you get a cohesive, well-coordinated design process from concept to construction.

  • Design-build means the design and construction planning are coordinated under one process. Instead of the designer and contractor working separately, decisions stay aligned from the beginning, reducing miscommunication and helping projects move forward more smoothly.

  • Not a problem, that’s what the consultation is for! All you need to do is communicate your likes and dislikes, the initial consultation is a conversation to get to know you and what you could potentially have in your space.

  • We work on a range of residential projects from kitchen, basements, full home renovations, etc. If your unsure if your project is a fit, reach out and schedule a complimentary consultation.

  • We typically work with homeowners planning thoughtful renovations such as kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, basement finishes, and full-home transformations. If you're exploring ideas or unsure where to begin, the first step is simply a consultation where we discuss your goals and your home.

  • Ideally several months before you plan to start construction. Early planning allows time for design development, permitting, contractor coordination, and material selections so the renovation process runs smoothly.

  • Yes! INTNT design guides projects from initial concept through construction. During the design phase we prepare detailed construction drawings and coordinate with trusted contractors and trades to help ensure the design is executed as intended.
