This little niche needed a doorway, so we created a bookcase. This is a photo of it open for full access.

Alm Architects; Located on a small challenging uphill lot in Beaver Creek, CO this ski-in home was designed for three Owners in different parts of the country. Both interior and exterior of this house reflect the modern ideas of the Owners while complying with the resorts strict design regulations.

Our ambition for Bodega Bauer was to create an architecture that was informed by the same particularities of the earth which are embodied in the wine of the region. Siting and materiality are guided by the subtleties of sun and wind exposure, climate, the unexpected nuances of each season, and the presence and absence of water and shade. The Incan irrigation technology that made the region habitable since pre-Columbian times by channeling snow melt from the Andes, was a powerful source of inspiration. Extending this system of ancient waterways, a central channel connects the house to the winery, and becomes a collector for water harvested from the building’s rooftops for irrigation. The new channel guides visitors along a sensuous journey through which one encounters the elements – sun, wind, soil, and water – which make the wine unique. What emerges is an architecture that accentuates its environment, and is at one with the raw, bold spirit of Mendoza. Along the irrigation channel, two linear forms – one descending, the other rising out of the ground – evoke the correspondence of architecture and wine. The descending structure is the wine-making facility which follows the gravity fed wine making process into the barrel aging vault below. The ascending structure allows the visitor to see how the wine is made, and culminates with a tasting room overlooking the vineyards and landscape. The forms of the winery create a playful interplay of sloping planes that allow the subtle topography of the ground to be perceived.

The custom stair at Ice House is conceived as a light, sculptural element within the interior, defined by floating solid oak treads anchored to a refined metal single stringer. The contrast between warm timber and precise steel emphasizes both structure and simplicity. A minimal metal handrail with integrated mesh guard provides safety without visual heaviness, allowing light and sightlines to pass through the stair volume. The result is a crisp, understated architectural gesture that reinforces the material clarity and industrial character of the home.
