Downtown Boulder Cantilever


 

type: new construction

location: boulder, co

date completed: 2019

architect: hmh Architecture + interiors

contractor: cottonwood custom builders

This cleverly designed home, located in downtown Boulder, boasts the largest cantilevered steel beam that Glenn Frank Engineering has specified (W21x57 with a 14’ cantilever and 14’ backspan) . It was essential to comply with strict city zoning codes on a very difficult narrow, sloped property. It also eloquently supports the majority of the upper level floor system which boasts stunning views of the flatirons.
