PARDUE
RESIDENCE — BEAVER CREEK, COLORADO
 Located
in prime snow-skiing country, this luxury western retreat boasts 3,800
square feet of contemporary mountain living on a spectacular site in Beaver
Creek, Colorado. EXLINE worked closely with local firm MORTER ARCHITECTS
to develop this exciting and dramatic residential statement in the greater
Vail Valley. With an emphasis on contemporary but contextual design, the
massing of the structure symbolically reflects the multiple peaks of the
surrounding mountain range.
The house plan takes full advantage of the dramatically sloping site and
opens to five outdoor decks with spectacular views to the ski runs, adjacent
golf course, and the valley floor below. Large interior volumes reflecting
the grandeur of the mountain setting are organized around a dramatic central
stair. The use of rugged indigenous stone and wood further the sense of
contextualism, and add to the warmth of the contemporary home. After a
day of skiing, residents and guests enjoy the crowning climax of a large
partially–enclosed Jacuzzi–tub situated on the upper–most
level of the house.
