By day, Blur is a silhouette, a mysterious floating bar, and an illuminated house covered in a thin layer of metal. During night, a series of warm golden bands known as Blur are projected onto a hillside. When the two art consultants who own the residence cross the threshold between the interior and exterior, they are struck by how juxtaposed the house is.

a change from light to black that is gradual, optically expansive, and polished. In order to mirror the surroundings while being strong and fire-resistant to withstand the severe alpine environment, the facade is covered in a shiny metal.

Contrarily, the interior maintains a simple, white color scheme that is soothing and welcoming. Large expanses of operable glass are highlighted by simple interior finishes, which establish a tactile and visual link to the Boulder Mountain scenery.

The purity and attention to detail in the plan are examples of Modernist simplicity. Along with accommodating the couple and their two children, the almost symmetrical upper floor concept also gives the option to accommodate art and host small events. From the minute the house is seen at the end of the long driveway till the second one's feet touch the white wood floors, the home's contrasting language is clear.
