Slifer Designs Team has crafted this luxury contemporary mountain retreat nestled in Morning Star, an exclusive gated community resting high above Avon, Colorado. This dwelling is perched in the mountains overlooking Beaver Creek. Initially, the homeowners commissioned the designers to design this home as their primary residence.

However, halfway through the project, the owners moved and this became their vacation retreat. The design team switched their project goals, selecting finishes that reflect an organic mountain retreat. The residence offers a cozy escape from the cold winters with warm fireplaces and plenty of seating areas to lounge and entertain friends and family.

The interiors are decorated with plenty of textures and a wide variety of finishes and materials in a soft color palette so as not to detract from the beautiful landscape that pervades the home.

This 10,064-square-foot residence complements the homeowner’s extensive art collection while providing expansive mountain views. The designers used the art collection to help determine the color palette. This presented a bit of a challenge, as the design team had to use photos instead of viewing the art in person.

What We Love: This visually striking, luxury mountain retreat reflects a comfortable living environment with contemporary interiors and a monochromatic palette. Since this home is a vacation retreat, the spaces were designed with relaxation in mind. Expansive windows capture mesmerizing views of the rugged mountainous landscape surrounding the home. The homeowner’s extensive art collection infuses personality into the space while being used as a center point of the design scheme.
