Cherryville Residence
Greenwood Village, Colorado

Located on a 1-acre lot in an established Denver suburb, the Cherryville Residence incorporates prairie style and arts-n-crafts elements into a contemporary design that provides all the warmth and comfort of a traditional home. The overall building volume is an assemblage of smaller building forms that reduce the perceived scale of the structure. Similar but varied roof forms unify the design with a consistent theme.

Large, exterior light wells provide natural light and landscaped views at the basement level. Vaulted ceilings mimic the forms of hipped roofs and introduce a hierarchy of use to the rooms below. Corridors and stairs provide a buffer between primary living areas and more private spaces. Combinations of mulled windows create light-filled rooms while opening living areas to a private covered patio at the rear. Stained, custom interior wood doors, paneling, and cabinetry take cues from traditional bungalow architecture and introduce an uncommon level of sophistication and intimacy.
