As the owners and founders of Ambre Blends, Adam and Ambre Crockett have dedicated the past 20 years to the production of high-quality, organic body products focused on the “discovery of a newfound self.” From the curated selection of 100 percent pure vegan ingredients to the simplistic design of their biodegradable packaging, their mantra has continually exemplified both the business and lifestyle choices of this progressive, eco-friendly couple.

“We see ourselves as environmentally-friendly individuals leading wholesome, green lives devoid of harmful chemicals,” said Ambre Crockett, a former massage therapist and avid yoga and aromatherapy enthusiast.

With the desire to apply their eco-minded concepts to an ultra-modern home, the Crocketts enlisted the talents of Clete Kunce, principal owner and founder of One 10 Studio in Indianapolis, Indiana, an architectural firm with a growing reputation for delivering clean residential designs. ONE 10 STUDIO Architects took on the challenge of building the Crockett’s new home on a beautiful, wooded lot amidst a traditional Indianapolis neighborhood lined with gabled, shingled houses.

Window selection and placement played a critical role in ONE 10 STUDIO’s overall design. Kunce explained, “We performed several sun studies to determine the best placement and sizing of the home’s oversized casement windows and glass doors. The goal was to bathe the entire house with an abundance of natural light, while creating great views of the property’s beautiful exterior from nearly any room or interior location.”
