We were hired to transform a 1960′s brick ranch house on a beautiful foothills site into a home worthy of its surroundings.  The owner was interested in an aesthetic that married the Colorado mining vernacular with a mountain modern style.

We have proposed a design solution that combines heavy timber and steel detailing with stone and reclaimed barnwood cladding.  The existing gable roof will be removed, the interior of the home gutted, and a new timber truss system will allow for an open and soaring floor plan with expressed structure and plentiful windows.  A small steel-framed addition will allow for a more functional kitchen and adds interest to the exterior massing.
