Centre Sky Architecture has designed this impressive modern rustic mountain nestled into the surrounding hillside of the Telluride Ski Resort in Telluride, Colorado. The design of this home is inspired by its surroundings, integrating it within its site while interacting with the natural vegetation and gorgeous mountains. This project had many design challenges, but the finished result is a fabulous three-story rustic modern structure clad in steel, glass, wood, and stone.
Inside this impressive home, floor-to-ceiling glass walls lend to breathtaking views of Mount Emma, Dallas, and Iron Mountain. The homeowners valued transparency in the structure, as it allowed them to feel part of the natural environment. You can see it through the formal entry, through the great room, and out the back of the house. This created a spacious feel to the already open floor plan of the great room, dining room, and kitchen.
What We Love: This modern rustic mountain home offers the ultimate in tranquility, surrounded by a grove of aspen trees and magnificent mountain views. In this architectural masterpiece, nature beckons from beyond the sleek walls of glass. Three distinct living spaces are connected via glass walkways, interconnected by a variety of outdoor living areas — offering plenty of entertainment options for family and friends. This peaceful environment can also be enjoyed from the outdoor hot tub!

The architects targeted a few key elements to strike a balance between rustic and modern. The rustic thick grouted stone siding, weathered wood siding, and a continuous rusted metal roof all add a warmth that blends into the alpine environment. These elements, accompanied by clean lines, steel beams, and lots of glass, allow for a balance that fits comfortably into the landscape.
Inside this dwelling, you will find three living spaces, a chef’s kitchen, a formal dining room, a game room, a home office, a gym and indoor basketball goal, a laundry room, five bedrooms, five bathrooms, two half bathrooms, a sunroom, a mudroom entry, a ski utility wing, and a 3-car garage.
