Morning Star

Mountain Modern residence in Utah
 

Connected with Nature

This Deer Valley mountain home quietly connects the surrounding vast and unobstructed natural world with a sophisticated, elegant – yet supremely comfortable – environment to create an entirely new level of indoor-outdoor living. The home’s private areas are housed in a series of staggered stone pavilions along the ridge while a central glass pavilion contains public spaces. Movable glass walls encourage indoor-outdoor living and spaces are arranged to provide direct access to the sloping site. The synchronized palette of materials for exterior and interior finishes, carefully selected by WRJ in collaboration with Poss, enhances the fluidity of the connection with nature.

Despite the layered beauty of the constructed elements – a veritable masterpiece of design collaboration – nature remains paramount. From raining to cloudy to sunny, the vast sky’s movement is reflected in the pool, which overlooks the reservoir, manifesting the home’s ultimate ever-changing experience of earth, water and sky.
