A Colorado Mullet House Hides Its Wild Side Behind a Traditional Facade

The clients had long owned the property in Mapleton Hill, and they were looking to build their dream "forever" home in which to raise their family. The public-facing side of the home is historically appropriate, with gables, dormers, a porch, and double-hung windows. While these features are traditional in many senses, the clean, minimalist detailing signals contemporary construction. Timber screens and lattices add a texture and translucency to the archetypal forms.
