Mountain modern, with a rocker twist
Mountain modern interiors blend natural and man-made elements — local materials, neutral colors, wood, wrought iron, and stone. The rocker twist adds the edge: patina steel rising through a two-story stone fireplace, a copper cube wall, a black canopy bed, and a glass wine room glowing beneath floating stairs. Cozy and daring at once.
Cozy and daring at once
Mountain modern design draws its palette from the landscape — a range of neutral tones with splashes of earthy color — and builds with natural, local materials. This home keeps all of that warmth: cathedral timber trusses, stacked stone, walls of glass framing the prairie and mountains. Then it turns the amp up. Patina steel and copper relief where another house would stop at stone. A studded high-back dining chair where a bench would do. A black four-poster in the primary. The result is a hybrid that's both a mountain retreat and a statement of individuality — rustic elegance with a rebellious spirit.

Great room
Dark timber trusses vault over a two-story great room anchored by a stacked stone fireplace with a linear gas insert — and a full-height patina steel panel rising through the stone, the room's first rocker move. Across from it, a wall of copper relief cubes catches the light in a 3D grid. Fur-layered seating, a curved ottoman, and an arc lamp keep it lounge-soft under all that height, with the loft's cable railing looking down on everything.
