Boulder, Colorado

Waterview, designed as an urban village along Arapahoe Avenue, integrates with South Boulder Creek and respects the surrounding viewsheds and neighborhoods. Its design reflects Colorado's agrarian history, featuring masonry bases and light-responsive volumes. Buildings are configured as 3-4 story structures along the creek, with terraces buffering residences from the bikeway. Long ‘fingers’ extend towards the northern pond, enhancing views of the Front Range and Flatirons. Mixed-use spaces include an organic café, yoga studio, and early childhood education. Warm materials enhance entrances and common areas, while pedestrian connectivity is prioritized, linking Arapahoe Avenue transit to trails and green spaces. An open space program includes hidden parking, and a bridge connects various amenities, fostering community interaction. Green-roofed buildings blend with the landscape. Waterview is seamless with its landscape, tailored for vibrant community.
