Architect Visit: John Pawson in Telluride

June 20th, 2008

From Sarah:

I’ve walked past this Telluride, Colorado, house many times and admired the way it blends into the neighborhood yet has a quiet, modern edge. I was surprised to learn recently that this humble structure is, in fact, a John Pawson design. Despite its popularity with the jet set, downtown Telluride still likes to cling to its early mining roots, and this house manages to reference the town’s vernacular architecture with its pitched metal roof, weathered timber siding, and fieldstone foundation. The bedrooms are on the ground floor, and the living quarters are above, affording better views of the surrounding mountains. Via Push Pull Bar. For more John Pawson, go to our earlier posts Shopper’s Diary: Rose & Radish, Architect Visit: John Pawson, and Kitchen: John Pawson Pieces.

    Do you think this is a gas fireplace?? Would seem weird if it is, but that flame is so long. What do you think?
