Hulme Residence
Denver, COThis project afforded us the opportunity to design two new homes in an historic neighborhood. Rather than design historically re-created residences, the Denver Landmark Commission supported us and our clients' desire to create modern homes that clearly speak to today's architecture and 21st century design. Because two adjacent structures were to be designed, we were further challenged to create buildings which related not only to the neighborhood, but to each other in an interesting way. The residences were also designed to use 40% less energy than a code-compliant standard home in the Denver area. With energy-efficient windows, Structural Insulated Panel technology, and low-toxic, recycled and renewable interior materials (such as bamboo flooring rather than hardwood), both homes exceed the requirements of the Built Green Colorado program.
