Boulder Mountain Ranch
This beautiful 3800 sf contemporary Colorado mountain home resides above the foothills of Boulder. The passive solar house maximizes the sweeping views of Indian Peaks mountain range. The open floor plan brings natural light and passive cooling into every part of the house; the vaulted ceilings create an airy, sunny feeling. Every room opens to generous patios and decks to facilitate easy indoor/outdoor living. White oak floors, granite counters and local flagstone finishes lend a warm modern texture to the home. We carefully preserved one hand-built quartz wall that was part of the house that formerly occupied the site, and restored the original adjacent homestead, successfully receiving Historic Landmark designation. This very energy efficient home (HERS 40 – uses 60% less energy than allowed by code), uses solar–photovoltaics, foam insulation, Energy Star windows & appliances, LED lighting, and a high-efficiency mechanical system. It uses EPA Watersense plumbing fixtures and Xeric landscaping to dramatically reduce water use.

ʻʻRodwin Architecture has a gifted eye and a penchant for precision. I deeply trust their competence. but just as importantly, I trust their integrity, intentions, and how they go the distance to get everything right. Scott is an extremely creative and competent architect who is great to work with. His advice was always spot on and the results show it. I highly recommend Rodwin Architecture.ʼʼ
