Step into this mountain ski house in the astounding Wasatch Mountains

mountain-modern-home-exterior

This extraordinary mountain ski house was designed for an active outdoorsy family by CLB Architects along with The Iluminus Group, located in the community of Monitor’s Rest at The Colony in Park City, Utah. Surrounded by spruce, fir, and aspen trees, this fabulous dwelling is nestled on a high-altitude site in the Wasatch Mountains. 

Offering moments of respite for an active, outdoors-oriented family, this home has a restrained aesthetic. The form stitches together the disparate natural and human landscapes as a series of rectilinear volumes which appear to erode into the mountainside itself. Alpine wilderness is enmeshed with high-end residential amenities as the structure draws occupants in circulation across the steep slope.

An introspective entry courtyard surrounded by a single-story glazed circulation gallery veils the home’s majestic situ from those approaching by vehicle. On moving past the exterior’s monumental limestone, shou sugi ban Cedar, and patinated copper, a two-story atrium finally connects views cross-site onto the expansive Wasatch front.

The interior continues to filter a multi-directional array of natural views from every room, directing and redirecting the occupant toward a selection of unique outdoor spaces. Massive windows lined in thin steel and sliding tectonic door lift systems enable entire walls to shift, knitting the indoor environment further into the panoramic surroundings.

A tower near the private southern end of the site heralds the home’s wellness-oriented ethos, extending over a heated indoor-outdoor lap pool and outdoor spa, wrap-around deck, and lounge with glass fireplace. Unfolding within the refined main volume is an array of uniquely crafted spaces.

The main floor includes a generous owner’s bedroom, and the lower floor contributes five additional bedrooms and bathrooms, laid out as guest suites. These are interwoven with a series of luxurious, wellness-focused amenity spaces, including a full spa with a sauna, massage room, salt room, hot tub, cold plunge, and a custom fireplace.

A surprise buried below the home deep in the hill houses further sports facilities, with an indoor squash court, climbing wall, and bowling alley. Working closely with wellness consultant Delos, lighting, air filtration systems, and materials were optimized to suit the home’s design and benefit the residents’ health and well-being.

Accessible directly from the slopes via ski, snowmobile, or mountain bike, the home embraces rugged outdoor lifestyles into its bespoke interior spaces. The main building includes a locker room, snowmobile garage, repair workshop, and graciously appointed ski-in, ski-out lounge befitting its mountainside site.

A bathroom clad in panels of travertine adds a cooling touch within the warm, honey-textured interior. Finely-crafted surfaces of Croatian limestone and hewn Cedar elegantly echo the exterior and draw the eye toward dense forests of Aspen and Fir which extend beyond.
