Sculptural Architecture

Modern Exterior, Denver

Architecture can be sculptural inside and out. The Jessor/Menken residence is an excellent example of creating a dynamic space with simple materials. The innovative shape of the house is composed of glass and wood contrasted with thick linear walls made of stucco. As avid mountain climbers, the owners wanted a house that integrated their outdoor lifestyle into the architecture. In response HMH designed a stair as a focal point of the design. The house is a composition of four floors with a linear stair running along the thick wall. Small punctured windows provide playful shadows on the climb up the stair culminating in a fifth floor rooftop terrace. The residence is distinctive in design and sculptural in form. The dialectic of curving and rectilinear shapes along with the contrast of confined and soaring spaces and the combination of near and distant views creates interior spaces that are both intimate and expansive. The result is a home not only inspiring in shape and form, but is also an intimate representation of and integration with the homeowner’s passion and lifestyle. HMH. LIVE ARTFULLY.
