A gorgeous rustic-modern cabin inspired by Colorado’s Rocky Mountains

cabin-rustic-exterior

This luxury rustic-modern mountain cabin was completed by design-build studio Artisan Builders, located in Telluride, a ski village in Colorado. The materials used in this dwelling are infused with history, with authentic textures and inviting details throughout. The material selection in this cabin was a key part of the design, including an impressive amount of reclaimed materials. 

All of the exterior siding, except for the metal shingles, is reclaimed — the weathered grey oak board on board vertical siding and the 2″ x 14″ thresher floor that was used as clapboard siding. On the interior, 11” to 15” inch wide-plank reclaimed white pine flooring was used throughout most of the home. The flooring is a unique product, requiring a specialized use of patina, filler, sealer, and wax to achieve the desired aesthetic. Continue below to see the rest of this jaw-dropping home…

Stone was another integral feature of this custom dwelling. The builders used a lichen and moss-covered field stone with organic edges and a great degree of size and thickness variation. 8” concrete block was extended up from the base of the footer to allow for a battered effect, the masons using the larger and thicker stones at the base and then gradually tapering the wall back into plumb as it rose up the side of the building. This stout and substantial effect offer strength and shadow lines as the sun traverses across the sky.

The custom timber frame of the great room and master bedroom are hand-hewn beams of Elm and Ash. These beams were reclaimed from 19th century-old structures. Every piece of wood has its own characteristics. Working with only one square edge, these somewhat organic pieces fit together into a load-bearing timber frame design in which the environment will be consistently pushing and pulling on the tenons pegged with a traditional dowel of oak.

A mix of white and red oak hand-hewn logs sourced from an old cabin in Ohio was incorporated throughout this home. It was used to build the treads for the spiral staircase and also the stairway leading to the wine room. It was also incorporated into many of the built-ins as well as all of the island cabinet faces.
