LOW RIDER

Perched above Boulder, Colorado, the Low Rider Project is an alpine retreat that masterfully blends bold, contemporary design with the charm of its traditional Rocky Mountain “Craftsman” existing conditions. 

In the powder room, a nod to mid-century pop artist Rex Ray electrifies the space, while a striking primary bathroom takes inspiration from the sleek lines of a Oaxaca sports car. The result is a high-octane mix of textures and finishes, from custom blackened brass inlays to California-inspired tiles, delivering a bathroom that defies the ordinary—a fitting centerpiece for a power couple with cosmopolitan flair.

Euro-modern Roman clay walls create a moody guest bath retreat, anchored by a custom brass mirror and a concrete sink that maximizes space while adding intrigue. In the powder room, a cheeky Rex Ray wallpaper brings vintage colorways to life, offset by modern Spanish-inspired tile and a streamlined, wall-mounted sink.

The pièce de résistance is undoubtedly the primary bath—a fearless interpretation of motion, speed, and luxury. The dynamic cadence of blackened brass inlays mimics the sleek lines of a low rider, while cherry casework ties back to the home’s roots with refined, modern lines. The Flagstaff Project is a bold, unforgettable statement in modern mountain living, offering a fresh take on timeless craftsmanship and the thrill of the unexpected.
