Caribou
Club
Aspen, CO
In the basement of the old Aspen
Hardware Store resides the exclusive Caribou Club. The
challenge of this construction involved using an injection system
to stabilize the ground and the entire brick exterior of the
building. The building, including the roof, was then gutted
and rebuilt.
The end result is a private club
with "an English club ambiance for after skiing or after
business". The skillful mix of English tradition,
Victorian and western artifacts seems to be the perfect setting
for the nightlife Aspen favors.

Blankets
and suede-covered chairs characterize the Caribou Club bar.
Photographs were donated by club members such as Martina
Navratilova, Danny Sullivan, Frank Perry and Barbara Goldsmith.
