N’Vitale — now featured in

Set on six acres, the house threads evergreen, scrub oak and aspen into a quiet, contemporary plan. Weathered steel, concrete and oak ground the architecture; a low, winged roof and careful solar strategy bring light where it matters. The low, winged roof and a careful solar strategy bring balanced light into living and gallery spaces; the plan was composed to showcase the owners’ collection. Stewardship is explicit: a firewise buffer, native planting, and a gravity-fed stormwater system reduce impact and support the site’s ecology.

Thanks to Linda Hayes for the thoughtful coverage.

Where Music Shapes Architecture in an Aspen Hideaway 01/09/2026

We are pleased to share that our Victorian Music Box project has been featured in Denver Life Magazine

Writer Andy Stonehouse thoughtfully describes the unique facade of the contemporary addition, which is appended to an existing 1880's Victorian home in Aspen's historic East End.

Stonehouse writes:
"Perhaps the structure’s most beguiling feature is a facade meant to evoke Chopin’s 'Nocturne in E-flat Major, Op. 9, No. 2,' one of the owners’ favorite pieces...The CCY team’s ingenious solution incorporates a series of small, varied perforations, grouped together in the aluminum siding, abstractly corresponding to the key and length of each note, like a player piano’s musical score." https://www.denverlifemagazine.com/where-music-shapes-architecture-in-an-aspen-hideaway/
