This retreat based in Aspen, Colorado is a contemporary expression of residential architecture that harmonizes with the landscape, stepping gently down the hillside in a series of layered, cascading pools that mirror the site’s natural contours. This remarkable water feature flows alongside the home and through these pools, echoing the rhythm of the architecture while bringing a sense of movement to the experience of the space.
Expansive windows frame sweeping views of the surrounding mountains and flood the interiors with natural light, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. At the back of the residence, generous terraces and outdoor spaces offer moments of calm and opportunities to gather, all set against Aspen’s striking alpine backdrop.
Modern and sculptural in its form, yet grounded in the textures and materials of the Rocky Mountains, this residence achieves a thoughtful balance between contemporary design and its mountain environment.
