A perfect example of a beautiful kept Denver Usonian home, the Touff House, designed 1958 by Victor Hornbein. The design was meant to keep a low profile to avoid blocking other homes views of the mountains, a consideration you do not often see these days.
Victor Hornbein designed many of Denver’s greatest examples of the Usonian architectural style pioneered by Frank Lloyd Wright. Two examples of his non-residential commissions are the Ross-Broadway Library and the Denver Botanical Gardens.
Speaking of gardens, not only is this house decorated with beautiful artwork, but is has outstanding landscaping.
Here are some other examples of Usonian architecture from the same Denver neighborhood.
