Just steps from the entrance to Keystone Resort, this striking residence began as a high-end rental concept but soon evolved into a full-time home, shaped by the clients' strong connection to the site. Influenced by Scandinavian minimalism and modern mountain design, the architecture combines flat-angled roofs, light wood interiors, and expansive glass with bold references to Colorado’s mining heritage. A corten steel fireplace links interior and exterior spaces, while a black granite waterfall wet bar introduces sculptural contrast. The result is a home that balances clean lines with character, designed to serve both everyday living and the lifestyle the owners have fully embraced.
From the ski-focused mudroom to the snowcat parked proudly out front, every detail reflects the clients' adventurous spirit. This home is not just a backdrop but a basecamp for alpine living, informed by the past and built for the way they live today.
“Having the design team tightly integrated with the construction team meant that we were looking at design decisions well ahead of when the construction team was working on them. No design decisions felt rushed at all. At various points throughout the building process, you walk in and it still doesn’t feel real, but ultimately, we love the house!"
