With its emphasis on sustainability and design, the VISION House at Mariposa Meadows is an extraordinary tribute to outdoor living in harmony with the surrounding landscape. The Trex Outdoor Living Collection was critical to bringing this vision to life. Nestled at 10,400 feet and surrounded by pristine wilderness, this exclusive compound offers a serene environment for leadership retreats, educational activities, and team building. It was imperative to the owners that the materials used in this build meet the highest sustainability and design standards for a compound that sits in the midst of a radiant aspen forest. The products, colors and textures had to harmonize with the topography, geology, flora and fauna, but also had to deliver the best resistance to fire spread and weather threats. Products had to be extremely durable and resilient and require minimal maintenance given the location’s limited accessibility most of the year. At Mariposa Meadows, luxury, sustainability and the wonders of nature unite.
