Linear House

Set on a one-acre lot in Boulder, Colorado, the Linear House is a multi-generational home designed for connection, comfort, and effortless entertaining. Organized as two simple, articulated volumes joined by a series of glass bridges, the layout thoughtfully separates active communal areas from private retreats while maximizing yard space, natural light, and curated views of the mountains. At the heart of the home, an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area flows seamlessly to the outdoors, where a spacious patio and swimming pool invite year-round gathering. The bridges not only provide architectural interest, but also reflect the home’s balance of unity and autonomy—ideal for extended family life. Full-height windows and sliding doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out, while built-in seating, cozy alcoves, and warm materials add intimacy and texture. Clad in a dark gray exterior with a modern flat roof, the Linear House preserves mature trees on site and blends thoughtful design with sustainability, flexibility, and the rhythms of everyday life.
