Teton Mountain House is a ski-in, ski-out contemporary mountain home located within the Jackson Hole resort area. The chalet draws inspiration from traditions of mountain architecture native to both Western and Alpine cultures and was designed to blend seamlessly with the environment. Built on a challenging triangular site, Granite Ridge Chalet has three main facades and was, in a literal sense, integrated into the mountain to minimize its visual scale. Quintessential pitched roof forms, shifting volumes, and local materials including Atlas Granite, Western Red Cedar, and board formed concrete are utilized throughout. The home is accessed via a 007-inspired underground garage tunnel covered with a green roof system of native vegetation. The interior spaces are characterized with sweeping views of the Teton Mountain range and a blend of rustic, contemporary, and crafted elements that embody a sense of place as well as the client’s love of travel.
