Fusing modern shape and form with forward-thinking technology is at the heart of all Entasis work, and the Oh House proves that. With an immense 6,300 SF of space to design and create, the architect-builder team knew they had to innovate and improve upon their modern homes of the past. Freeing up the space while bringing in the beauty of the outdoors was the motivation behind the glossy glass exterior that wraps around the entirety of the home. Adding a sleek edge of modernism, the glass walls reveal the delicate details of the interior of the home while creating a breathtaking view of the Colorado landscape while taking advantage of the sun angle, Entasis meticulously designed the roof overhang depths by using the power of the earth’s rotation.
