This home takes full advantage of unobstructed views of Aspen's four mountains and the valley below. Its long axis faces the views and a layered composition of architectural walls guide movement, create outdoor living spaces, and reveal unexpected discoveries.

The sculptural quality of the architecture is further expressed in the home’s three unique fireplaces. As a centerpiece separating the kitchen from the great room, a two-sided, see-through fireplace summarizes not only the material palate of the home but continuity of its design spirit as well.
