This stunning modern mountain dream home is designed for a family of five by Blaze Makoid Architecture, located in Teton Village, Wyoming. Encompassing 8,650 square feet of living space, this home is nestled on the Jackson Hole valley floor, surrounded by the Teton Mountain Range, at the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort.
The high altitude and steep mountain slopes contribute to bitterly cold winters and mild summers in the valley and attract a diverse population of wildlife such as bear, elk, and moose as well as many active vacationers and residents. The homeowners are avid skiers as well as kayakers, runners, golfers, and bikers.
A long, covered walk leads to a single story, glass entry hall that both links and divides two, two-story wings. The South wing consists of a vaulted Great Room, Kitchen, and Dining areas as well as Cocktail Room and Home Office on the first floor and the Master Suite above.
The North wing on the opposite side of the Entry Hall houses the Bunk Room, Laundry, Ski Room, Garage/Gear Storage, and outdoor Ski Lockers. Guest Suites and TV Lounge make up the balance of this wing. The home’s main outdoor living spaces are pushed to the front of the site, to take advantage of mountain views as well as the warm sunsets.
What We Love: This modern mountain dream home offers its inhabitants a luxury getaway for enjoying outdoor activities and breathtaking views of the Tetons. Comfortable and inviting furnishings add to the overall atmosphere of this relaxing getaway home. Large fireplaces add warmth and ambiance for entertaining family and friends.

Note: Have a look at a couple of other amazing home tours that we have featured here on One Kindesign from the portfolio of Blaze Makoid Architecture: Sumptuous two-level modern waterfront property on Sag Harbor Bay and Modern home in Sagaponack features striking palette of wood and glass.
The project’s modern exterior aesthetic is balanced by the design’s nod to local vernacular architecture and climate. The cedar shingle, gabled, cold roof is engineered to hold snow in the winter and disappear into the landscape from the mountain.
The roof’s eaves extend to protect the reclaimed barn wood-sided walls form the elements. A ribbon of rustic local fieldstone runs the perimeter of the project’s base and turns vertically to clad chimneys and feature walls.
