For this Boulder home, the design team at Surround Architecture created a more compact stone-lined entry that opens to a soaring space containing the living room, kitchen and dining area. “The entry gives an idea of compression, and then when you walk farther in the expanse is revealed—it’s a moment that feels really good,” says architect Dale Hubbard. The Croft House sofas in front of the stone hearth provide another feel-good moment.
