About Mountain Contemporary
Set against the picturesque backdrop of Truckee, California, the “Mountain Contemporary” project by Summit & Sands showcases a masterful blend of contemporary architecture with rustic mountain elements. Designed in 2016, this residence captures the essence of modern mountain living with an emphasis on openness and natural light.
Sophisticated Living Room
Upon entering Mountain Contemporary, visitors are greeted by a spacious living room that combines comfort with elegance. Large windows frame stunning views of the surrounding landscape, providing an ever-present connection to nature. The room features a high, beamed ceiling which enhances its spacious feel. A modern fireplace, surrounded by stone, acts as the focal point, offering warmth and a cozy gathering spot for chilly evenings.
Seamless Kitchen Integration
Adjacent to the living room is the kitchen, boasting sleek, modern appliances nestled within rich, wooden cabinetry. This area exemplifies functional beauty with its spacious layout, incorporating a large island that serves as both a cooking area and a casual dining spot. Elegant lighting above the island illuminates the space, making it ideal for both meal preparation and social interaction.
Private Spaces: Bedrooms
The master bedroom continues the theme of sleek, understated luxury, with a direct view of the verdant outdoors. Sliding doors open to a private deck, allowing for an immersive experience of the tranquil environment. The room is designed with a neutral palette, promoting a restful atmosphere. In contrast, another bedroom cleverly uses space with a bunk bed setup, reflecting a perfect blend of style and practicality, suitable for younger family members or guests.
