Boulder Level One
Envision a spacious family home nestled against Boulder’s Flatirons, where modern tech meets playful fun. Level One is a 7,100 SF haven for a family of five, blending green building with light and views to create a space that's efficient, joyful, and perfectly tied to the land.
Our clients dreamed of a bright, open home like an Apple Store, with big glass walls to soak in the scenery. They wanted mass-timber for a natural look, exposed systems to show the home's smart inner workings, and room for guests, fitness, and relaxation.
A sloped site can complicate building and efficiency, but we used insulated foundations and smart insulation to keep energy use low and the structure solid. Exposed elements saved on finishes while adding a unique, honest charm.
The concept mixes strength and whimsy – timber panels for walls and floors that double as decor, with a sloped ceiling framing epic views. Playful additions like a slide and climbing walls turn everyday spaces into adventures for the whole family.
Mass-timber builds a sturdy core, with charred wood siding for weather and fire protection. Triple windows, extra insulation, and solar panels make it energy-smart, cutting bills and boosting sustainability in Boulder's climate.
Warm and functional, with custom wood storage that flows naturally. Open main areas connect living with views, while bedrooms offer cozy lofts. A pool, steam room, and gym bring wellness home in a fun, engaging way.
Since early 2023, Level One has been a lively family retreat that saves energy and sparks joy. It honors Boulder's beauty with thoughtful design, creating a home full of light, connection, and lasting comfort for generations.
