Alpine Residence

Set on a prominent corner on a major Aspen artery, the core of the house is a robust masonry structure set on a pristine lawn behind clipped evergreen hedges.

Contrasting the strong monolithic mass, the entry, porches and numerous dormers are delicately detailed. Though this detailing speaks to the historic architecture of Aspen, all exposed wood has been oiled rather than painted. The natural wood establishes a link with the rugged context at the towns edge and serves as a prelude to the surprisingly playful interior.
