NORTH STREET RESIDENCE
Boulder, Colorado • 3,072 sq ft
Nestled within a quiet neighborhood in Old North Boulder, the North Street Residence’s silhouette reimagines contemporary living through the lens of deconstructed simplicity. Defined by its gabled volumes and steel framework, the design studies the interplay of form and texture in composing a home. Playing with transparency and the transition from public to private, steel was used to outline and capture space, creating an entry that pulls you further towards the heart of the home.
The interior unfolds as a series of light-filled spaces that blend functionality with poetic refinement. The neutral color palette, accentuated by tactile finishes such as polished concrete, warm woods, and textured tile, creates an elegant canvas for life to unfold within. The kitchen and central living areas are designed to accommodate both intimate family life and social gatherings, highlighting Watt Architecture’s commitment to creating spaces that adapt to the rhythms of daily living. This core of the home flows effortlessly into outdoor living spaces, where layered terraces, a fire pit, and native landscaping provide a sanctuary for both communal connection and solitary reflection with nature.
Through thoughtful craftsmanship and a deep respect for the environment, the North Street Residence emerges as an architectural testament to timeless modernity and contextual sensitivity.
