The Red Butte residence is a new structure, but zoning changes required the new house to exist completely within the footprint of a previous structure. A benefit of overcoming that challenge was that mature, native landscaping surrounding the home was preserved.
Designed for a couple who enjoys entertaining and being outdoors, the house utilizes a simple idea of removing solid walls and allowing the natural features to act as exterior walls and privacy screens. Significant windows allow the evergreen and Aspen grove to the South, and a near vertical craggy butte to the North to become the spatial definitions for living spaces. The architectural expression is minimal and spare, focusing on natural elements of the materials.
The trees’ filtered light, is emulated in wood trellises, throughout the house. The separation of elements helps clarify the material palette and the craftmanship of the home.
Steel, beetle-kill spruce, reclaimed elm and concrete define the primary material palette.
