Oriented toward the expansive Teton view and the Wilson faces, two traditional gable forms are connected by a modern glass bar. The glass connection is bent to achieve unique transitions of one’s view as they move through the house.

A curved glass curtain wall in the living room produces a dynamic living space, starting with the expansive Teton view to the north then refocusing on more intimate views of the Wilson faces and the pond.

The neutral tones of the wood and interior finishes are more peripheral and calm to allow the views to be the main focus. The seamless connection to the exterior is extended through multiple outdoor spaces. The exterior concrete wall shelters the private spaces from headlights. The more intimate primary bedroom is oriented towards the Wilson faces, while the other bedrooms engage the forest and pond with views screened from the public spaces.
