This magnificent mountain home was designed with warm and rustic textures by Zone 4 Architects, nestled on the banks of the Roaring Fork River, just outside of Aspen, Colorado. Built by Brikor Associates this dwelling has 5,126 square feet of living space with four bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms. The home has been modeled after old European farm structures with a contemporary twist.

The floor plan showcases a central core great room with glass hallways leading to the bedrooms and all additional rooms which focus on the fabulous views of the Roaring Fork River. The open-plan living area is anchored to one side by a modern kitchen and a stunning massive steel fireplace on the other side. The space is connected by reclaimed timbers, concrete flooring, an award-winning lighting scheme, and dry-stacked stone walls. The adjacent dining room features a dramatic wine storage wall.

Throughout this home, you will find fabulous lighting designed to highlight architectural forms with a minimal impact from the source. The architects installed exterior light fixtures to the structure underneath the decks, which helped to create pools of light minus the light pollution caused by using decorative light fixtures. The finished result is phenomenal, due to consistency of design, accents of architectural forms and materials, and ease of use.

What We Love: This magnificent mountain home reflects a beautiful combination of traditional architecture with modern lines and rustic finishes, creating a distinctive dwelling that complements its environment. The architects have devised a unique lighting scheme in this home to highlight the architectural forms, creating a warm and inviting aesthetic. Overall, we are loving every detail in this exquisite dwelling, from the material palette to the jaw-dropping rugged mountain views.
