architectural precedents | castle creek
The Castle Creek housing site is the most rural of the proposed sites, perched at the south end of the Marolt open space and at the base of Shadow Mountain. As proposed, the multi-faceted buildings house the largest number of units; the massing design was critical to reduce the impact to the site, while enhancing the livability and individuality of the units. The forms elegantly shift vertically and horizontally from unit to unit, thus creating private outdoor living spaces for each unit, and maximizing the solar gain and views. The buildings unique character is a nod to the progressive thinking outlined in the ‘Aspen Idea’ and expressed through the use of the Bauhaus architectural stylings of the Aspen Institute campus in West Aspen.
