Each step of designing a home, especially a new build, is informed by all the unique characteristics that make up the site where it sits. The work doesn’t simply involve designing a beautiful shelter, but also creating a relationship between the home and its landscape. The Mansell Home in the Pepperwood neighborhood has distinct relationships with its surroundings, helping to anchor it in place and continue to be both functional and beautiful for years to come.

From the onset, we were stunned by the mountain vistas and the natural beauty of the site. Our goal was to create a modern sanctuary that would embrace the picturesque landscape while offering a warm and inviting atmosphere. The design process began with a careful study of the site's topography, sun exposure, and prevailing winds, ensuring that every aspect of the home was optimized for energy efficiency and comfort.

The exterior of the Mansell Home mixes clean lines, geometric forms, and rich materials. The dark-hued siding and stone accents provide a bold contrast against the snow-capped peaks in the background, creating a visually arresting facade.
