On the latest episode of US Modernist Radio, Rowland+Broughton principals John Rowland, AIA and Sarah Broughton, FAIA share their journey from college classmates to founders of one of the Rocky Mountain West’s most respected architecture and interior design firms. In a lively conversation, they discuss their early years, international work experience in Sydney, New York, and beyond, and the influences that led them back to Colorado to create award-winning residences, hospitality spaces, and cultural landmarks. They also dive into their new book, Designing Aspen, which showcases ten stunning residences that capture the region’s distinctive blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and forward-thinking design. Along the way, they reflect on Aspen’s unique energy, the enduring value of curiosity, and why their favorite project is always the next one.

“It’s about more than aesthetics, it’s about making better lifestyles, building efficiently, and creating a world that works for everyone.”
