4 HOMES ARE NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. EXTERIOR TOUR ONLY. 1 HMH Architecture + Interiors Jessor House, 1303 Marshall St. This home s appeal comes from the contrast between the sculptural undulation of the walls and strict linear forms. Although the materials used are simple, the dynamic shape of the home provides great visual interest. Windows pierce holes in the back wall allowing light to fill the interior space. 2 HMH Architecture + Interiors Rosenthal House, 2945 Lafayette Dr. Years of searching for the perfect location led the owners to this lot with spectacular views. The 160-foot long wall was designed to bring together the architecture and the landscape, and frame the stunning views. The wall carries from the outside to the inside where the owners collection of contemporary art is showcased. It then leads to the living room, before continuing on to form a small reflecting pool. 3 Gettliffe Architecture Cascade House, 1333 Cascade Ave. The power of modern architecture is illustrated beautifully here. Although only 20 square feet of living space was added on, the interior was completely transformed allowing a more efficient flow and a stronger connection to the outdoors. The new design also takes full advantage of the strong Colorado sun for heating and lighting, and a simple palette of materials was used to give a clean, modern look and feel. The result is a more functional and attractive modern home that remains true to its 1946 roots. 4 Barrett Studio Architects 2155 Upland Ave. Colorado Modern is unique because Coloradans are! This home lets its family play outside, with easy connections and dedicated outdoor rooms. That "work hard play hard" mentality extends to the interior with durable materials, flexible spaces, and bright pops of color. The pared down rectilinear nature of modernism is the perfect visual foil for this thick-wall-block building system of autoclaved aerated concrete. AAC is fire and flood resistant, and contributes to the home's low active energy use, acknowledging Colorado's unique environment and green sensibilities. 5 Stephen Sparn Architects 801 Euclid Dr. Connecting the architecture to the surrounding environment was the main goal of this Boulder home. Local and sustainable materials are used throughout to give it a sense of place while two outdoor spaces take full advantage of the views of foothills. An open floor plan and flexible floor space keep the space feeling light, fresh, and sunsoaked. 6 Hammerwell Incorporated 303 Canyon Blvd. Built during a time of rising energy costs and land prices, these three townhomes truly make the most of their space. Each has a stunning view of the Flatirons and private outdoor space, but also share an outdoor dining space to foster interaction between the homeowners. The front paths leading up to each townhome also help to create a sense of community. Southern exposure and natural ventilation show how sustainable design and land use can be wrapped up into a stylish, modern package. 7 Treeline Homes 916 Juniper Ave. The incredible size of the lot drew the owners to this piece of land. The main house and the pool house create a courtyard that is ideal for indoor/outdoor entertaining all year long. Roll-up and bi-fold door systems were installed to bring the outdoors in. Blued structural steel, reclaimed woods, and vintage stone masonry create a feeling of warmth throughout, while remaining true to Colorado modern style. 8 WORKSHOP Norwood Ave. This 1960s home was remodeled and added on to with the goal of bringing it into the 21st century. The minimalist design and spare use of materials keeps the work grounded to its location. Simple lines and a single pop of bright color keep the home feeling modern and fresh, while reclaimed materials and the scale of the home make it an instant Colorado modern classic. 9 Surround Architecture 2617 Broadway St. This 3-story office building was designed for Anthem Branding, an advertising, design, and merchandising agency, which needed a space where their creativity could flow. What resulted was a building that reflected the work that they do original, fresh, and of-the-moment. Capitalizing on the expansive views also allowed the building to remain connected to its surroundings.

5 10 Cottonwood Custom Homes 2175 Knollwood Dr. This residence reflects the owners desire to build a green home that embraces their passion for an active, outdoor lifestyle. Built in the signature style of HMH Architecture + Interiors, this home blurs the line between indoor and outdoor, allowing the owners to extend their living space while enjoying breathtaking views. Large corner windows, sandstone walls, and wood floors, made from recycled railroad ties, make for a truly Colorado modern home. 11 Melton Design Build th St. The need for more space, better flow, and a more functional design was the goal of this remodel. The exterior was updated, setting the tone for a modern look that carries throughout the house. Inside, walls were removed to create better flow and a more open floor plan in the dining/ kitchen area makes entertaining seamless. Adding an extra bedroom, laundry room, and mudroom to the second story provides additional storage and keeps the home organized. 12 First Christian Church th St. Completed in 1960, First Christian Church is one of the first things to welcome people to Boulder. Nixon and Jones designed the church s prow to mimic the angle of the flatirons while stripes of blue glass inlayed with a geometric motif provide interest allow light to fill the interior. The structure is rooted to the ground while reaching proudly upward. 13 Hampton Barnes House th St. Often referred to as simply the Barnes House, this Usonian home was designed by owner and architect Jacques Hampton. In 1948, architect Charles Haertling built a small, creative addition. Haertling s addition kept with the style of the home in terms of both the materials used and the color palette, but offered a more modern and inventive twist. 14 The Willard House 126 Bellevue Ave. The Willard House has recently had a traumatic few years. A neighbor, hoping to make more space for new construction, dug away part of the mountainside threatening the structural security of the home. This construction project was eventually abandoned, but a large hole was left in its wake which makes for an uncertain future for the Willard House. 15 Boulder Valley Eye Clinic 2401 Broadway Form followed function in architect Charles Haertling s design for the Boulder Eye Clinic the shape of the building actually echoes that of an eye. Designed in the late 1960s, the building has undergone a few additions, including a large addition to the east side of the building, built by Haertling himself. These days, the building serves as offices for several arts professionals. 16 Brenton House 3752 Wonderland Hill Ave. The Brenton House is one of architect Charles Haertling s most notable designs. Built for Dr. Stanley Brenton, the home is situated above a lake with sweeping views of the mountains and sunset and sunrise. It is said that Haertling, an ex-navy man, found his inspiration for the design of the home in barnacles. The house is made up of 5 pods in a radial design. However, the home has become famous for a different reason. If was briefly featured in both the 1973 Woody Allen film Sleeper, as well as the National Enquirer Weird Houses column. 17 Menkick House 165 Green Rock Dr. The Menkick House is one of the most iconic modern structures in Colorado. Built around a natural outcropping of rock, architect Charles Haertling, designed the home to mirror the three largest masses of rock. The shape of the home not only showcases the interesting rock form but also divides the two wings of the home. Menkick was recently put on the market for $6.5 million. 18 NCAR Mesa Laboratory 1850 Table Mesa Dr. When faced with designing the Mesa Laboratory for the National Center for Atmospheric Research, I.M. Pei found inspiration in the ancient cliff dwellings at Mesa Verde National Park in southwestern Colorado. Completed in 1966, NCAR was constructed of concrete and stone, featuring a pinkish aggregate exterior that allowed the building to blend in with the surrounding natural environment. The maze-like interior was designed to encourage greater interaction between the workers. Pei won several awards for the Mesa Laboratory, and to this day still refers to it as his breakout design, although he went on to build such well known buildings as the John F. Kennedy Library and the Louvre pyramid.

6 19 Mike s Camera 2500 Pearl St. The Mike s Camera building is an iconic Boulder building located on the busy corner of Pearl Street and Folsom Street. Completed in 1993, it is comprised of 21,00 square feet of retail and office space. The three story building is made of white stucco and concrete and entirely linear in form. Large windows break up the facade and allow light to stream in. 20 Jessor Papachristou House 595 Euclid Ave. The Jessor House was built by Tician Papachristou for the distinguished University of Colorado professor, Dick Jessor, in This house is known for its curvilinear shape and long, low profile. The walls, which extend out into the landscape, provide contrast and serve to integrate the interior with the exterior and the landscape. Extended roof rafters and projecting posts emphasize the linear aspect as well. Jessor s current home, designed by HMH Architecture + Interiors is also on the Map of Modern. 21 Boulder Smiles th St. Built in the mid 1960s, this office building was given the Twenty-Five Year Award by the Colorado North chapter of the American Institute of Architects last year. Harvey Hine, of HMH Architecture + Interiors, nominated the building for the prestigious award. Described as a low-lying, post-war modern building, the Easton office building is regarded as a modern classic. 22 Renée del Gaudio Architecture st St. This 1950s ranch was remodeled with the hope of opening up the flow of the home, allowing more light into the space, and removing low ceilings. What was accomplished was far more than that. Using 100% of the original foundations and 80% of the original brick walls, the home was completely transformed into a sustainably built, family-focused, airy, modern beauty. 23 RE:Architecture th St. The transformation of a 20,000 square foot industrial building into a highly functional, modern office space was no small task. The parking lot was reconfigured to create a better pedestrian entrance into the building. Energy efficiency was addressed by wrapping the south and west sides of the building with perforated metal, creating a double skin that provides significant shade, and decreases the amount of air conditioning needed. In addition to the functionality, this second skin also creates an entirely new look to the building and enhances the aesthetic quality of the facade.
