Located in Aspen's West End, this new house is a contemporary interpretation of the Victorian forms prevalent in the historic architecture of the neighborhood.
Although the house is 4,238 square-feet and much larger than its traditional counterparts, the highly articulated massing and the use of one-story elements and indigenous materials like Colorado Buff stone and cedar siding keep it in scale with its surroundings.
Built speculatively, the home's interior architecture is designed to appeal to a variety of potential users.

This new home for an international client was inspired by the owner's affinity for European mountain chalets and memories of family time spent at Swiss ski resorts.
With the exception of the art gallery and media room, which are located in the basement, the 7,500-square-foot house sprawls comfortably on one level.
Sited and massed to be integral to its landscape, the house has strong connections to the outdoors via a rhythm of large openings.
The exterior features use of rustic vernacular elements like rafter tails and exposed beams/carpentry for a rough-hewn sensibility that is also reinforced inside.
