SHINY METAL HOUSE Protected by the shape of the valley, the house stands alone in a delicate, almost oriental landscape. It was originally designed for two painters and their teenage son, and thus the lower level consisted of two painting studios divided by a painting storage area, with thirteen-foot ceilings and oversized doors accommodating large artwork. The studios have since been converted to bedrooms by the new owners. A winding stair leads from an entry foyer to the open living area where a long view of twin-peaked Mount Sopris is framed in the large window.
