63rd Street Residence by bldg.collective
63rd Street Residence is a contemporary net zero house located in Longmont, Colorado, designed in 2018 by bldg.collective.
Description
Situated on a 40-acre property, the 63rd Street Ranch Residence is a Net Zero home with panoramic views of the Front Range, including the Flatirons and Longs Peak. The unique layout cantilevers from the sloping hillside, providing a backdrop for the patio, pool, and sweeping landscape. The interplay of the unique characteristics of the dynamic site with the home was paramount in this design; we oriented the home to interact with the natural grade of the ridgeline, so that it appears interdependent with the terrain.
The result is the appearance of a contemporary structure that has been present on the site for many years. We collaborated with the client, who is passionate about high-level architecture and design, throughout every step of the design process to create a home with modern form and warm, inviting materials. Ten-foot floor-to-ceiling glass windows and dramatic steel planes are countered by the warm tones of Arborwood on the exterior and soft textures of American clay on the interior walls.
