equestrian

Equestrian is a modern custom home in Park City, Utah, designed first and foremost around its views. The home takes in as much of the Wasatch as the site allows: the living space and master hold Park City Mountain Resort in frame; the breakfast nook and gym look to Iron Mountain; and the office keeps an eye on the iconic peak beyond.

The arrival is just as considered. A generous north-facing courtyard greets guests with landscaping and places to pause, while the garage is pulled west to shield the interior from the afternoon sun. Rising to a second story opens an airy central living volume anchored by a two-story masonry fireplace, the hearth that grounds every great mountain-town home.

Outdoor living wraps the house in options: a covered west patio for shade and gathering, a hot tub tucked at the east patio for privacy. And because family life needs room to breathe, a teenage retreat sits at a comfortable remove from the master suite togetherness and space, in the right measure.
