They rose to the occasion, and we were glad to have them on board.” Gert Van Moorsel, VP of Development and Construction ASPEN SKIING COMPANY

TAILORED

“Over my 30-year tenure at Hotel Jerome, the hotel has been thoughtfully reinvented while remaining loyal to its revered history and authentic character. Working with the team at Rowland+Broughton once again has ensured that this latest expansion and renovation will continue to honor its legacy, while enticing and accommodating new generations of guests.

Matsuhisa Creating a space that continues to evolve the Matsuhisa legacy in its new Cherry Creek location remains true to the Japanese culture through thoughtful, unique, humble, and purposeful design. Matsuhisa Denver is an exquisitely designed restaurant that elevates Denver’s dining experience. The muted, natural palette provides an elegant setting for the unique food presentation.

A space that is welcoming and inviting for guests was imperative to the scheme and structure. Utilizing deliberate textural contrast and carefully designed lightscapes, the ambiance for an exquisitely designed sushi restaurant that elevates Denver’s culinary palate was born. A soothing, natural palette provides an elegant setting for the unique food presentation. Reclaimed Indonesian teak unifies the design as the floor, many walls, ceilings, bar, and millwork were all custom crafted from the same material. The sliding partition walls are also teak with resin panels that have a compelling story of their own; trimmings of prayer paper that is made by monks in the Himalayas is pressed in the resin. The paper is handmade from shrubs indigenous to the area. Other elements were also designed to acknowledge the Colorado locale. The back bar wall is clad in leathered Sandalwood sandstone quarried from the Western Slope. The Zen garden rock, while inspired by Japanese artist Masatoshi Izumi, was selected from a local supplier and quarried in our home state. The sloped acoustic ceiling is reminiscent of the Rocky Mountains visible to the west.

“The sophisticated decor makes an impact with reclaimed teak, earth-toned tile, locally sourced stone accents, and ornate Japanese cut-out screens.” Zagat

Since the site is oriented on the corner of a busy intersection, it was important to focus the guest experience internally. We did this by cloaking the windows in a custom designed wood screen system. The pattern is inspired by the traditional Japanese Asanoha, or hemp leaf, pattern.

W Aspen Redefining a modern day chalet in Aspen, Colorado, rooted in Aspen’s rich history. At the base of Aspen ski mountain with ski in/ ski out access, the W Aspen is reminiscent of the traditional chalet form. The architecture is a nod to the iconic style that speaks to Aspen’s alpine heritage, with modern details and building systems that root the architecture firmly into the present day while instilling a sense of timelessness.

The iconic chalet style was first introduced to Aspen in the 1940s with long, sloping rooflines and siding adorned with wood and stucco that was prevalent in Aspen when skiing was first introduced. Over time, the style has been slowly eroded. The opportunity to create a modern interpretation of the chalet speaks to Aspen’s ski heritage and the prominence of being at the base of the mountain. The new design is a modern-day translation and renaissance of the chalet architectural style infused with modern day detailing. The W Aspen hotel will provide a venue and place to stay that encourages youth and fun. The variety of amenities and beautifully designed public spaces will become a hangout for locals and visitors alike. An oversized split-level living room, the brand’s alternative to the staid hotel lobby, reimagines the traditional dining scene with a modern approach to dynamic cocktails and cuisine. To complete the experience of this incomparable location, the property features an outdoor patio and a rooftop bar and pool, overlooking Aspen Mountain, to create the ultimate experience for après ski and warm weather events. Locally-inspired, this modern-day mountain chalet celebrates the spirit of Aspen, with 88 guestrooms, including six suites and 11 W-branded fractional Residences.

Limelight Ketchum Embodying the heritage of its surroundings to create an approachable destination for travelers and the local community. Located near the Sun Valley ski area, the Limelight Ketchum Hotel inspired by Ketchum’s motto, “Small town, big life!” Taking cues from the area’s laid-back vibe, a modern interior program was intended to nurture body and soul. The overall design theme is the establishment of the hotel as a community “base camp” in which guests can start and end each day. In public spaces, the concept was executed through design of a large, centrally located seating area focused on a monolithic stone fireplace hearth, dubbed the “campfire.”

“Our goal was to create spaces that reflect our brand promise to “Lighten Up” and become “the Living Room” for the community. R+B were able to deliver with a design that has been well received by both the community and our hotel guests. It is exciting to see how the communal lobby, lounge, and restaurant areas have been accepted and the vitality that exists there on a nightly basis.” Don Schuster, Vice President of Hospitality ASPEN SKIING COMPANY

The relationship of the fireplace to an overhead design installation utilizing fiber optics and linear, radial, and cove lighting replicates the experience of walking through a forest and emerging in a clearing below a starry night sky. The outdoors was further embraced via an architectural, overhead, reclaimed wood trellis detail that moves from the porte cochere, into the lobby, and onto a plaza. Throughout the hotel, color palettes were inspired by natural environmental colors, textures, and contrast of shade and shadow. Primary materials include white oak, reclaimed barn wood, blackened steel, and natural stone and fibers. Custom, mobile furnishings with integrated technology create flexibility within public areas. The team was responsible for Interior Design and FF&E for the entire hotel. Sustainability was a critical goal. Silver LEED certification was received. The “base camp” concept carries through in the guest room design. Ensuring full relaxation between adventures, each room features custom elements: entry benches, banquettes for dining or play-time, rift sawn white oak veneer cabinetry and ample built-in storage, such as entry cubbies, dressers, and closets. LED lighting, Water Sense plumbing and quartz porcelain tile was also incorporated.
