Designed in the modernist tradition by award-winning designer Christian Butler of Studio Limited, this contemporary residence was featured on the cover of Modern in Denver magazine for its architectural significance. Studio Limited approaches design through the lens of proportion, light, and the human experience. Each project reflects a sensitivity to how people move through space, inhabit it, and find comfort within it. The architecture is composed to create privacy in the midst of the city, a thoughtful response to the energy of urban life. Windows and expanses of glass are positioned not only for light but to foster a deeper connection between interior spaces and the landscape that surrounds them. The result is a home that invites quiet moments of refuge, where the rhythm of the city softens and calm takes hold. This attention to privacy and proportion is not about separation but about creating peace and belonging within an urban environment. The exterior is clad in handmade brick, steel screen walls, and cedar finished with the traditional Japanese shou sugi ban method, giving the facade a texture that is sculptural and enduring. Materials such as brick, steel, and custom millwork express permanence and craft, while German-engineered windows and doors by VonderHaus frame intentional views and invite the outdoors in. Xeriscaped landscaping emphasizes native species and low maintenance. A detached two-story ADU sits at the rear of the property, offering built-in income with a tenant in place or flexibility as a guesthouse, studio, or workspace. Located two doors down from the 39th Avenue Greenway, residents enjoy terraced lawns, play areas, community gardens, and gathering spaces just outside their doorstep. The home is a stone's throw from the Denver Rock Drill redevelopment, a 7 acre mixed-use project that will introduce new residential, creative office, and retail offerings.
