Rodwin Architecture & Skycastle Homes Location: Boulder, Colorado, USA Interior design, space planning and architectural details converge thoughtfully in this transformative project. A 15-year old, 9,000 sf. home with generic interior finishes and odd layout needed bold, modern, fun and highly functional transformation for a large bustling family. To redefine the soul of this home, texture and light were given primary consideration. Elegant contemporary finishes, a warm color palette and dramatic lighting defined modern style throughout. A cascading chandelier by Stone Lighting in the entry makes a strong entry statement. Walls were removed to allow the kitchen/great/dining room to become a vibrant social center. A minimalist design approach is the perfect backdrop for the diverse art collection. Yet, the home is still highly functional for the entire family. We added windows, fireplaces, water features, and extended the home out to an expansive patio and yard. The cavernous beige basement became an entertaining mecca, with a glowing modern wine-room, full bar, media room, arcade, billiards room and professional gym. Bathrooms were all designed with personality and craftsmanship, featuring unique tiles, floating wood vanities and striking lighting. This project was a 50/50 collaboration between Rodwin Architecture and Kimball Modern

Cafe 27 is a puts all of its energy into healthy living and eating. As such it was important to reinforce sustainable building practices convey Cafe 27's high standard for fresh, healthy and quality ingredients in their offerings through the architecture. The cafe is retrofit of an existing glass greenhouse structure. As a result the new cafe was imagined as an inside-out garden pavilion; wherein all the elements of a garden pavilion were placed inside a passively controlled greenhouse that connects with its surroundings. A number of elements simultaneously defined the architectural expression and interior environmental experience. A green-wall passively purifies Beijing's polluted air as it makes its way inside. A massive ceramic bar with pastry display anchors the interior seating arrangement. Combined with the terrazzo flooring, it creates a thermal mass that gradually and passively heats the space in the winter. In the summer the exterior wood trellis shades the glass structure reducing undesirable heat gain, while diffusing direct sunlight to create a thermally comfortable and optically dramatic space inside. Completing the interior, a pixilated hut-like elevation clad in Ash batons provides acoustic baffling while housing a pastry kitchen (visible through a large glass pane), the mechanical system, the public restrooms and dry storage. Finally, the interior and exterior are connected through a series pivoting doors further blurring the boundary between the indoor and outdoor experience of the cafe. These ecologically sound devices not only reduced the carbon footprint of the cafe but also enhanced the experience of being in a garden-like interior. All the while the shed-like form clad in natural materials with hanging gardens provides a strong identity for the Cafe 27 flagship.

La reforma comienza por un desmantelamiento casi total del sistema de divisiones de la anterior casa, creando una tabula rasa en búsqueda de la mayor expresividad y ligereza de espacios. En ese proceso de retroceso a lo radical de lo constructivo se retiran del mismo modo cerramientos, como el que rodeaba la terraza (con apariencia más bien de pequeño patinillo), además de la piel del sistema estructural de pilares con vigas descolgadas. "La condición por parte del cliente fue que los materiales fueran muy expresivos hasta llegar a su forma casi brutalista. Los nuevos materiales son el hierro natural y la madera de pino", explica Cristina Cucinella, arquitecta del estudio. A estos nuevos materiales se les suma el hormigón visto, sacado a la luz de la estructura original. La nueva organización de la vivienda será secuencial, eliminando cualquier posibilidad de espacio residual, reduciendo lo espacial también a su máxima sinceridad: una estancia te lleva a la siguiente, sin pasillos, sin distribuidores, empleando como únicos conectores la luz y la materialidad, y como divisores, la gradación de usos. De este modo, en la parte central de la vivienda se situarán el estudio y el baño, como una pieza neutra, intermedia; en la zona de acceso y junto a la luminosa terraza, ahora liberada de los muros que la rodeaban, se colocarán en "L" la cocina-comedor y el salón; al final de la casa, en el lugar más tranquilo, los dos dormitorios. El espacio de uso más nocturno se abre con dos grandes ventanales al exterior, inundando de luz los dormitorios. Casi como un juego de niños, sendas cajas de madera hacen de "balcón interior", salvando las irregularidades de la planta y creando un habitáculo dentro del habitáculo. Recuerda a aquellas casitas que hacíamos de niños, con los grandes cojines del sofá de casa de nuestros padres, cuando queríamos cobijarnos. El pavimento, también de madera pero de una blancura que potencia la luminosidad de los dormitorios, se orienta en diagonal, siguiendo el recorrido de la luz. En el centro, como charnela, la zona de estudio y baño se neutraliza, mostrándose en un bicromatismo blanco-negro, y situándose en el punto medio de los dos extremos en tensión El espacio diurno funciona como una vivienda patio, gracias a ese doble carácter de la nueva terraza: se vuelca hacia sí mismo, y se distribuye por su propia geometría en dos partes diferenciadas sin necesidad de divisores. La potente isla de la cocina y su continuidad en mesa de comedor hacen de esta pieza diseñada a medida su centro, mientras que en el ángulo se sitúa la zona de estar. Desde aquí parte un plano continuo de almacenamiento, correspondiente al muro medianero, que atravesará y conectará toda la casa. En la cocina-salón será una estantería de madera de pino; al cruzar la puerta pivotante que separa del área central de estudio, se convertirá en los armarios y espacios trastero. Grandes planchas correderas de hierro cierran el almacenaje, sobrepasando sus límites y prolongándolos más allá, hasta la estantería de madera en un extremo, y hasta las cajas de madera de los dormitorios. La intervención de El Tejado Azul es sencilla, lógica, sincera. Al mismo tiempo, resuelve las necesidades de sus clientes, y también sus deseos y caprichos. Pero no sólo eso... tiene algo más. Te puedes imaginar abriendo puertas secretas, refugiándote un día de humor raro con un libro en una de sus cajas de madera. Este hogar hace feliz a quien vive allí, se puede encontrar la ilusión de una vida resguardada en sus estancias, y ése es un material que la arquitectura jamás debería olvidar.

The clients called me on the recommendation from a neighbor of mine who had met them at a conference and learned of their need for an architect. They contacted me and after meeting to discuss their project they invited me to visit their site, not far from White Salmon in Washington State. Initially, the couple discussed building a ‘Weekend’ retreat on their 20± acres of land. Their site was in the foothills of a range of mountains that offered views of both Mt. Adams to the North and Mt. Hood to the South. They wanted to develop a place that was ‘cabin-like’ but with a degree of refinement to it and take advantage of the primary views to the north, south and west. They also wanted to have a strong connection to their immediate outdoors. Before long my clients came to the conclusion that they no longer perceived this as simply a weekend retreat but were now interested in making this their primary residence. With this new focus we concentrated on keeping the refined cabin approach but needed to add some additional functions and square feet to the original program. They wanted to downsize from their current 3,500± SF city residence to a more modest 2,000 – 2,500 SF space. They desired a singular open Living, Dining and Kitchen area but needed to have a separate room for their television and upright piano. They were empty nesters and wanted only two bedrooms and decided that they would have two ‘Master’ bedrooms, one on the lower floor and the other on the upper floor (they planned to build additional ‘Guest’ cabins to accommodate others in the near future). The original scheme for the weekend retreat was only one floor with the second bedroom tucked away on the north side of the house next to the breezeway opposite of the carport. Another consideration that we had to resolve was that the particular location that was deemed the best building site had diametrically opposed advantages and disadvantages. The views and primary solar orientations were also the source of the prevailing winds, out of the Southwest. The resolve was to provide a semi-circular low-profile earth berm on the south/southwest side of the structure to serve as a wind-foil directing the strongest breezes up and over the structure. Because our selected site was in a saddle of land that then sloped off to the south/southwest the combination of the earth berm and the sloping hill would effectively created a ‘nestled’ form allowing the winds rushing up the hillside to shoot over most of the house. This allowed me to keep the favorable orientation to both the views and sun without being completely compromised by the winds.
