PRIVATE RESIDENCE, ASPEN, CO

Description

THE ASK

We were contacted by one of our top clients about a new project in Aspen, Colorado, where one of the main design features and aesthetic focus was to be the stone veneer, both interior, and exterior. Stone was not just to be an accent material, but the main visual and perceived structural element to create a timeless architectural composition.

 

THE DETAILS

This is an 8,500 single-family residence in Aspen, CO. Gallegos scope of work on this project included Masonry, Marble and Granite, Plaster, and concrete topping slabs. The design called for a moss rock veneer with Colorado Buff stone trim around all openings. In addition to sourcing local materials for the stone veneer, the client also wanted sustainable materials for their countertops and bathrooms. Many of the interior stones were either reclaimed materials or were sourced from Colorado quarries. We sourced tiles from reclamation projects in Europe and Asia.

The residence is a spectacular and dramatic nod to stone masonry, something the owner, architect, and builder can be proud of and, for the most part, was built with the environment in mind.
