Inspired Modern Living
Begun as a conceptual project, the design grew into a development proposal that
had three main goals: Open the house to the impressive mountain views; create
a stronger connection to its context through material, palette, and texture; and
enhance the outdoor spaces to increase the effective area of the home. Mission
accomplished. Mammoth motorized glass sliding doors dematerialize the edges
of the home, extending the space to the outdoors while a sculpture garden and
courtyard area connects the generous ground-level spaces, providing multiple indoor
and outdoor gathering opportunities.
Designed to embrace the views and provide endless entertaining options, this
generational home is the best of both worlds with warm contemporary architecture
in a quiet ranch setting.

The White Horse Springs residence enjoys the benefits
of rural ranch living with a sophisticated modern design
— only minutes away from downtown Aspen. The
original house, designed in the 1980s in the style of
Ricardo Legorreta, was well-known for its unique foreign
architecture along with its distinctive pink color. However,
the structure seemed out of place in both context and
time, inspiring the remodel.
