Tamarawood
Aspen,
Colorado
This 1970’s mixed use building is modern in form
and the design for its future is no exception. A unique collaborative
project between the owner of a residential unit in the Tamarawood building
and the building’s owner brings an opportunity. The deck expansion
for a second floor residential unit will provide privacy for the residence
as well as an opportunity for signage, sun shading and will address
drainage concerns for the building. The partial exterior renovation
will give the downtown Aspen building a fresh look. The design incorporates
zinc panels, glass guardrails with standoffs, brise soleils, and wood
accent caps and slats over the exposed concrete elevator shaft. Light
boxes atop the existing concrete site walls will add a subtle glow
and provide street appeal in the evenings. |
