PTARMIGAN

Telluride, Colorado

In-Progress

Ptarmigan embraces a bold, tactile approach to contemporary alpine design, where heritage craftsmanship meets industrial modernity. This Telluride retreat is defined by its expansive open layout, where exposed timber beams, blackened steel accents, and raw stone surfaces establish a sense of permanence and character.

The architecture highlights strong geometric forms and vaulted ceilings, creating an airy yet grounded atmosphere. Expansive glass panels capture the shifting moods of the San Juan Mountains, filtering natural light across an interior that balances rugged textures with refined finishes. Throughout the home, custom metalwork and reclaimed materials add layers of depth, reinforcing the dialogue between modern craftsmanship and timeless mountain tradition.

Built for both solitude and social gatherings, Ptarmigan embodies a bold new vision of luxury mountain living, merging industrial edge with rustic authenticity in one of Telluride’s most striking natural settings.
