CDescription

History

The Jackson Hole House was designed by McLean Quinlan Architects. Its original completion was in 2016 in Jackson, Wyoming. The residence expanded eight years later. This design reinterprets the form of Cunningham's Cabin, a historic 19th-century settlers' homestead. Clients, who are designers, created timber pull handles, benches, and loungers for the house.

Architecture

The house blends European chalet and classic American cabin styles. It interprets vernacular architecture for an alpine setting. Stone, timber, plaster, and glass form the primary structure. Cedar shingles cover the exterior. Pebbles collected from the nearby Snake River pave the mudhall and spa floors.

Setting

The house perches high above Jackson, Wyoming. It offers panoramic views of Grand Teton National Park. This wild, alpine environment sits on a sloped plot. As years pass, external stonework will cover with lichen, and sagebrush will creep to the boundaries, marrying the building with its landscape.

Specifications

No specific dimensions provided. The residence serves a residential category.
