vista house

Vista House is a contemporary residence that captures the essence of modern mountain living through a bold architectural language and site-sensitive design. Situated in Boulder’s highly sought-after West Rose Hill neighborhood and steps from Chautauqua Park, the home is oriented to maximize uninterrupted southern views of the Flatirons, seamlessly connecting indoor life with Boulder’s iconic natural backdrop. Defined by a dynamic interplay of projecting rectilinear volumes, layered voids, and deep overhangs, the architecture presents a sculptural and balanced façade. A cantilevered upper level introduces drama and spatial variation, while expansive glazing allows light and landscape to permeate every corner of the home. The primary suite is strategically positioned to embrace the Flatirons in full view and features a private outdoor deck, offering a serene vantage point for sunrise coffee or evening stargazing. Crowned by a rooftop deck, Vista House provides a truly elevated experience—both literally and figuratively—where the panorama becomes part of daily life. The material palette balances warmth and precision: natural stone, vertical wood slats, and dark metal accents converge in a composition that is both sophisticated and grounded. Exterior elements extend the living experience outward, including integrated landscape planters, terraces, and curated paths that define and soften the architectural edge. Flooded with natural light and rooted in the land it overlooks, Vista House is more than a home—it’s a refined modern retreat designed to frame the view, shape the experience, and celebrate the setting.
