Robert Singer & Associates Residential Portfolio Vol. 4

PYRAMID ROAD RESIDENCE

This modern residence has views of the Maroon Bells and Pyramid Peak in Aspen, Colorado.  The key architectural features of  the house are over 200 linear feet of 20” thick rammed earth walls, verƟcal rusted panels, sandblasted masonry block and  zinc roofing.  A beauƟful landscape and exterior façade is emphasized with a combinaƟon of architectural and landscape   fixtures.  The interior lighƟng focus was on the vast, eclecƟc art collecƟon while keeping a clean contemporary feel   throughout the house.  Low visual impact from lighƟng sources was achieved through small square aperture downlights as  well as concealed linear architectural details throughout the house.  MulƟple layers of light were integrated into each   separate space to accent architecture and artwork, while maintaining a comfortable, livable space.  With such a clean   architectural design, lighƟng had to be integrated subtlety as a compliment to the spaces and finishes without compromising  funcƟonality.    With beauƟful Red Mountain in the background, a warm incandescent glow emanates from the interior of the main pavilion.   Custom square aperture recessed uplights accent the rammed earch wall while low level bollards accent planƟng in the   foreground.  Underwater adjustable fixtures bring the reflecƟng pool to life.  The lone specimen tree is highlighted using   uplighƟng while scones bring a consistent pool of light to the courtyard.
