CHERRY HILLS RESIDENCE

Designed for a construction-savvy client in suburban Denver, this home uses a post and beam structure to support an interlocking series of roofs. The huge overhangs provide lots of opportunity for outdoor spaces that flow from the interior.

All of the ceiling and wall materials run from inside to outside, further emphasizing that connection

The front courtyard is defined by a series of sloped berms that mimic the rooflines and create privacy from the street

A transparent bridge connects the living spaces to the private bedroom suite.

Elements

Custom steel and wood trusses, exposed timber and steel beams, limestone.
