THE BROADMOOR HOUSE

The Broadmoor House is a 7,000‑square‑foot, two‑story C‑shaped compound organized around a central courtyard, where a raised pool and native landscape fold the surroundings inward. Conceived as a contemporary reinterpretation of the post‑and‑beam tradition, the home expresses its structure with intention: exposed wide‑flange steel beams pair with select Douglas fir heavy‑timber rafters to shape the cantilevered horizontal roof planes. These elements meet a series of vertical fin walls clad in locally sourced stone and rustic horizontal board‑formed concrete, creating a tactile composition of mass, texture, and shadow.

The lower level is dedicated to the primary living spaces, anchored by divided‑lite steel multislide door systems that open fully to the courtyard. Long axial views accommodate large‑format art, giving the interiors a gallery‑like clarity. Throughout, the architecture celebrates a hierarchy of structure—from the grounded weight of stone and concrete to the lightness of steel and timber—expressing a deliberate progression from heavy to airy.

The upper level houses the sleeping quarters, including an expansive primary suite and lounge spaces arranged around double‑height volumes and a sculptural stair. Vertical wood screen walls modulate privacy and filter daylight, creating a dynamic interplay between transparency and solidity. This balance of glass, structure, and crafted materiality defines the Broadmoor House as a warm yet disciplined modern retreat, rooted in its landscape and elevated by its structural expression.
