由著名的建筑师Hugh Newell Jacobsen设计，这个非凡的家庭坐落在Castle Creek上方，占地20英亩，俯瞰着神秘山谷的天然辉煌。不幸的是，周围的景观从未完成，空间受到严重的干扰和功能的损害。 Bluegreen与业主和设计团队合作，恢复景观，同时建立一系列令人信服的交际外部房间以容纳一个活跃的家庭。
为了雄心勃勃地将建筑与景观连接起来，建筑计划被深思熟虑地扩大，而不会忽视更大的，长期的愿望来增强生态完整性。线条和材料，强壮和本土高山植物的群体，以及在住宅附近包含亲密的室外房屋，创造了一个整体的场所，景观和家庭是密不可分的。这种设计合作最终体现了在其审美中精炼而且负责任的景观。
户外房间以编程方式独特，与住宅的房间非常相似。北面的庭院和水的功能作为一个安静和沉思的私人空间，直接连接到客厅和图书馆。俯瞰着风景秀丽的难民谷的朝南的露台充当了用餐和休闲的主要户外社交空间。
Designed by renowned architect Hugh Newell Jacobsen, this extraordinary home sits high above Castle Creek on a 20-acre site overlooking the natural splendor of Conundrum Valley. Unfortunately, the surrounding landscape was never completed and the site was left severely disturbed and functionally compromised. Bluegreen collaborated with the owners and the design team to restore the landscape while establishing a series of compellingly communicative exterior ?rooms? to accommodate an active family.
To eloquently connect the architecture to the landscape, the architectural program is thoughtfully extended without losing sight of the larger, long-term desires to enhance ecological integrity. Lines and materials, massings of hardy and native alpine plants and the inclusion of intimate outdoor rooms adjacent to the residence create a holistic site where the landscape and the home are inextricably connected. This design collaboration ultimately fashions a landscape that is refined in its aesthetic yet responsible in its site stewardship.
The outdoor rooms are unique programmatically, much like the rooms of the residence. The north-facing courtyard and water feature function as a quiet and contemplative private space and connect directly to the living room and library. The south-facing terraces, which look out over the scenic Conundrum Valley, function as the primary outdoor social spaces for dining and lounging. Here, a variety of elements?walls clad in limestone and floors of bluestone, an outdoor fireplace and massings of perennials and grasses?reference the architecture and reinforce the social programming of the terraces.
Combined with a robust, multi-year effort to restore the surrounding aspen grove and mountain meadow, the landscape at Lines on Castle Creek is evidence of the inherent beauty of restrained design that is grounded in a commitment to ecological resilience.
