Windham Homes Parade 2000 House is a
contemporary example of Prairie Style architecture. The low, flat roof
planes with broad overhangs and the simple but elegant exterior complement
the prairie landscape. A dramatic stair tower ascends from the roof and
stands like a lantern over the auto court. The tower is visible from the
street but is brought back to human scale by the richness of the porte
cochere and planters. Interior spaces are organized by a pair of hallways
that intersect at the hearth room and kitchen in the heart of the house.
Each room in the house borrows light and volume from the well-articulated
hallways and is focused on the rich Colorado panorama that is framed by
the patterns and rhythms created by the abundance of windows. The private
spaces are designed with maximum comfort and the lifestyle of those who
will live there in mind. The floor plan unfolds with surprises and light
around every corner. A house designed to be lived in, but designed with an
obvious and generous nod to the artful tenets of the Prairie Style.
