Mountain Lodge Blending Rustic and Modern Details in Colorado: Moody Cabin

By Freshhome
Trulinea Architects and Studio Frank

There is something about wooden cabins covered with snow that makes us shiver. Today we would like to present this extravagant rustic-meets-contemporary residence located in Telluride mountain village, Colorado, USA and designed by TruLinea Architects in collaboration with Studio Frank. Initially built in the 80s, this dream holiday-inspiring lodge was recently “upgraded” in order to meet the demands of contemporary living.

The result is an original abode, artistically camouflaged in a perfect natural landscape. The core of the cabin is an open plan living and dining space, preserving traditional details, yet added plenty of modern elements as well. A minimalist fireplace perfectly blends in the overall decor, adding a feeling of coziness to an otherwise sober atmosphere. Answering the owners’ need for a ” rough, organic and timeless” home, the architects managed to combine a variety of materials and textures into genuine spaces, while also considering the sustainability factor. How would you comment on the overall design of this cabin?
