This Aspen residence is a contemporary mountain retreat designed for family living, carefully sited across 23 acres of open fields and forested land adjacent to White River National Forest. The home is positioned to engage both expansive meadow views and the surrounding woodland, creating a quiet dialogue between architecture and landscape.
The design emphasizes durability and material expression, with an exterior palette of board-formed concrete, steel cladding, and cedar siding—materials selected for their ability to weather naturally within the alpine environment. These elements are composed to create a structure that feels grounded and enduring, while maintaining a refined and contemporary character.
Organized to balance openness and retreat, the residence supports both gathering and privacy, offering a layered living experience shaped by season, light, and setting. The result is a home that reflects a broader approach to mountain architecture—restrained, site-responsive, and designed to evolve over time within its natural context.
