Pleasant Ridge - Rendering

Introducing one of our newest residential projects here in Boulder -- Pleasant Ridge. Uniquely situated within rural fields to be planted with hay and alfalfa, the orientation of the home and barn aim to take in the sweeping views of the foothills from the west through the north as well as the horses grazing from framed views within the home. Strategic placement of native vegetative screens and structures provide wind breaks and focus views towards the foothills and the inner courtyard this orientation creates. A subdued material palette and utilization of traditional rural forms along with the restoration of agricultural use to the site aims to reflect the characteristics of the land and adjacent properties.
