Celebrating 15 years

of VEGAS MODERN™

“We decided to build a

new home with Blue Heron

after falling in love with the

aesthetic of the show home. The

obvious level of creativity and

uniqueness that this builder

brings to the table is unmatched”

-Karen Nassof

hen Tyler Jones founded Blue Heron, a custom
design/build firm, his architectural preferences
leaned to modern. Many told him it would never
work in Las Vegas. However, such naysayers served
W to further motivate and drive him. Fifteen years
later, VEGAS MODERN™ has become their signature design, a
type of modern architecture many have come to love and emulate.
When the homes come on the resale market, part of the description
is, “This is a Vegas Modern™ design by Blue Heron.”
Jones’s father is a custom homebuilder, and as a kid, Tyler
started learning the trade under his dad on the labor end. During
high school, he worked after school for local architects, and studied
architecture at the University of Colorado in Boulder. After gradu-
ating, he furthered his knowledge and experience in the employ of
architects in Denver, then returned to Las Vegas to start his own
business. “I never wanted to do anything else, and enjoy taking it
another level.”
