Foothills Contemporary

This Foothills Contemporary House stands at the edge of a steep mountain slope, looking down into a deep ravine and out to distant snowy peaks. Conforming to its rugged site, this house stacks three stories tall and stretches along a north-south axis, framing views of the vast western landscape from almost every living space in the house. This home is characterized by a dynamic geometry of simple forms shifting in and out of alignment, stacking and sometimes perforating each other.
