Keystone’s first major development in over 20 years, Kindred Resort, is more than just a high-end ski-in/ski-out destination—it’s a case study in how mass timber, hybrid systems, and modern mountain design come together through tight collaboration.
In this panel, you’ll hear directly from the team that made it happen:
- OZ Architecture (Architect)
- KL&A Engineers & Builders (Engineer)
- PCL Construction (General Contractor)
- Kindred LLC (Developer)
From early vision to near-completion, they’ll unpack how each discipline approached the challenge of designing and delivering a 321,000-square-foot resort—complete with a 107-room hotel, 95 for-sale residences, signature restaurants, a spa, ski school, retail, and more—at 9,000 feet elevation, on one of the most coveted parcels in Summit County.
Attendees will walk away with:
- How OZ Architecture’s design team balanced modern alpine aesthetics with functionality, while incorporating exposed heavy timber, wood trusses, and biophilic design to connect guests to nature.
- How KL&A tackled structural engineering across mass timber, steel, and concrete in a hybrid system built to perform in mountain conditions.
- How PCL Construction executed the project using prefabricated wall panels and smart phasing to overcome high-altitude weather and site constraints.
- Why the development team chose mass timber for this flagship property—and how that choice aligned with their goals for sustainability, guest experience, and long-term brand value.
This is a rare chance to hear four leading firms reflect on one of Colorado’s most ambitious modern resort developments—and how cross-disciplinary trust and timber played a central role.
