Kukkula Winery: Where Ancient Techniques Meet Modern Design
Studio B Architecture + Interiors is proud to share that the Kukkula Winery has been featured in Architectural Digest, recognized for its innovative approach to blending historical techniques with contemporary design.
Nestled in the rolling vineyards of Paso Robles, California, Kukkula Winery utilizes gabion walls—steel cages filled with stones sourced directly from the property. This method, with origins tracing back to Leonardo da Vinci, serves both aesthetic and functional purposes. The gabion walls not only anchor the building within its landscape but also provide natural thermal insulation, maintaining cooler interior temperatures essential for wine production.
By partially embedding the winery into the hillside and embracing materials from the site, Studio B created a design that feels timeless yet distinctly modern. Kukkula Winery is a testament to how sustainable practices and thoughtful architecture can elevate both form and function.

AIA Colorado 2017 Architect of the Year Believes in Getting Back to the Basics
If you walk into Studio B Architecture + Interiors in Aspen, you’re likely to see the computers turned off, while the employees draw, sketch and craft study models. You might see CU Denver architecture students learning to sketch a nude model during the firm’s annual summer studio intensive. Or, you might even find the office empty because the staff is attending their annual vision retreat at the Aspen Institute or have escaped on one of their annual sketching trips.
These are just a few of the unique aspects which make Studio B a special firm clearly focused on design excellence. Founder and design principal, Scott Lindenau, FAIA believes that for an architect to truly excel, he/she must know how to draw, understand who they are as a designer and contribute to their firm’s collective vision.
Space Pod in Dezeen
The building serves as a multipurpose space for a young landscape architect. It is the first stage of a larger project, with the second phase entailing the construction of a single-family home on the property.
“The location of each volume on the site was driven by the desire to create a private, sun-filled backyard space, free from large imposing structures,” said Studio B Architecture + Interiors, which has offices in Boulder and Aspen.
Brick City House in Dezeen
The team conceived a low-lying box faced with dark bricks supplied by a company in Italy. The masonry helps strengthen the home’s connection to its historic neighbours.
“This project draws its material palette from the surrounding, smaller-scale brick bungalows and implements handmade brick – a low-maintenance, high-quality and durable material of striking natural beauty,” the team said.
Aspen Community School in Dezeen
For the buildings’ facades, the team opted for sturdy materials that worked in harmony with the context.
“A palette of modest but durable materials – rusted metal shingles, fibre-cement board and Western red cedar siding – were selected for their compatibility with the existing campus context and for low maintenance,” the architects said.
