Modern Telluride
The Sunset Ridge residence overlooks the Deep Creek Canyon and is surrounded by a 360-degree panoramic view of the San Miguel Mountain range in Telluride, Colorado. This 12,000 sq. ft. ultra-modern residence was designed to incorporate the surrounding landscape by providing gorgeous vistas from every angle of the home. The vision for this project was to create a unique home that provides inspiration and surprise with every turn, while enhancing one’s sense of wonder when experiencing its context within its surroundings. The architectural design was profoundly inspired by its environment, yet makes a unique statement as a dramatic response to it. This is achieved through Sunset Ridge’s design: breaking away from common orthogonal geometries, incorporating soaring angular rooflines, featuring detailed limestone walls that ground the structure to the land, showcasing a dynamic steel structure, and housing floor-to-ceiling glass that welcomes the surrounding landscape into the experience and lifestyle of the home.
